Exact Part
June 16, 2021|Steve, Arlington, VA

I had to return a part to another supplier as it did not fit, but Sears Parts Direct had an easy to navigate and locate the exact part system. Once I received it, it fit perfectly. I had watched da Youtube vide to install, but follow them EXACTLY, as it is difficult to remove the part and start over if you do it in the wrong order as I did, which made the repair quite literally twice as hard, as I had to do it twice and removing the part without breaking it to begin the second time to do it right is tough. I saved a bunch of $ doing it myself though - and gained a small sense of accomplishment!

Installs with ease.
June 11, 2021|Rick, Union, WA

It installed easily. Two tie-wraps were used to route the cable and keep it in place. (It would be nice if they were included.) Once the cable was installed, the mower ran like a charm.
