Toro Workman
Boy now that I'm almost done with my Workman to take to our property in Nevada .... I have been getting other stuff fixed. I had a sound inside the left rear wheel and pulled it apart to find the star wheel stop clip laying in the drum and fixed it.
I started looking for a high altitude jet. I called Toro retail sales and they have a jet.... Good for 2400'-6600' $24.00! Dang this must be made of pure Unaobtainium! Then I asked about a carb rebuild kit and he asked if I was sitting down... $87.00! I played with the mechanical gov. and got it running 2800 rpm but still need a service manual ($50.00!) so I can get it running to 3600 rpm it is 'sposed to be max RPM. It has a 31hp 953cc Briggs and Stratton Vanguard Diahatsu gas 3/LC engine so maybe I can get the parts from them cheaper?? Still have to build side mirror mounts.

Re: Toro Workman
Wow! I called Briggs and Stratton about the same parts for this engine and the prices were even higher! I spent $200.+ and just bought them from Toro... I wonder If I should have looked at a Gator.... or are all these HD utility carts parts over priced??
OH well I got the Toro for cheap so I guess it is still cheap for something that will do this much work and haul and tow as much as this will.... 2005 Toro 3200 Workman tag.jpg |

Re: Toro Workman
If you are shocked at the prices of Toro parts, then the price of John Deere turf parts will surely do you harm.

Re: Toro Workman
Thanks thats good to know. I don't feel as bad now. All the Gators I looked at were a lot more than the $3200. I paid for this in this kind of condition.
Even all the golf carts with HD springs and beds were more $$ and don't carry as much weight or tow as much. I always wanted a Gator but the 4-6 thousand $$ price just blew me away. Next is I will need a set of chains for it when winter comes next year. I have been trying to find better tires (that can handle the weight and mud/ snow) as the turf savers on it. I know that these tires will pack up bad. The 24x12x12 (or the 26x12x12 size I want to use) tires with larger lug designs for mud/ snow will only carry at most 700 lbs and run at max 7 psi..... I may have to find/ borrow a tire cutter and buy a set of these and open up the tread a bit..... |

Re: Toro Workman
We have a used workman. Used, ugly w/2500 hrs are still $5-6 K.
You cant go up wet grass hills with those tires. ( maybe full of sand? ) Buy chains or a snow tread, if available. It's a good truck. Big tires and a light bed. |

Re: Toro Workman
Thanks Tony yes I saw many at that cost so my $3200. was a steal. I need tires that will work in mud and snow so...
I just found some tires that will hold 1000 lbs and 22 psi max so maybe these will do... 8 ply rated. ITP Blackwater Evo's 25x11x12 Blackwater_Evolution1.png Carlisle 489's also... mQEbDRwgrZtjGyHWAwu92cg.jpg |
