Grass board for a No 5 JD mower needed

[Alan K]

Does anyone have a grass board for a number 5 JD sickle mower or at least the bracket for the stick and a pattern for the metal plate? Were the boards painted? If so what color? Thank you.

Original JD sickle mower wooden grass boards came varnished & with a leaping deer decal installed.

I don't have a number but here are a picture and drawing of how to make one.

While this would not be a true JD grass board TSC last I knew sold a universal grass board that will fit on that. I've used them on more then one sickle bar mower

The new universal steel grass boards do a better job

I have some for sale. All vary a little. One is hand made out of plywood with an added metal strap running the length as can be seen in the photos. One has a crack in the board near the mounting end. Best wood seems to be in the painted board. Only one has the grass bar. The boards measure from 33 to 34 long. Email is open if you have comments or questions.

I also have a complete pitman with bushing drive end and all the components on the attaching end. Approx. 42 long. Wood is not very good. Email is open for comments or questions.

So do the older steel grass boards.

Take a look at the photo below of the approximate measurements for the plate.

Thank you for all the replies. Anyone have an extra bracket for the stick?

 

[SVcummins]

The stick bracket for a 350 sickle grass board is JD part number H24605, it should work for yours.
