Re: (ET) Side discharge blocking plate for E20 deck



In my neighborhood, Lowes has the best supply of sheet metal.  Some 1/8” or even 3/16” aluminum is easy to form.
Cheers, Jack

Drat. My rear discharge plate for my E20 broke awhile ago (the one that covers the side hole and provides all the strength to the deck). I welded up the crack the formed in the deck (Top and bottom) however the plate is too thin to weld with the elec-trak welder.

Question: Is there a way to reinforce that hole? The front wheel presses back and forth as you mow, and the rear bracket pushes up and down making this a pretty bad fatigue point. Anyone ever reinforced it?
