HOW MUCH IS A CHEAP CRAFTSMAN MOWER REALLY WORTH? I found this 20 year old CRAFTSMAN 21" 917 LAWN MOWER at the curb. I GOT IT RUNNING smoothly after a quick tune up but it won't sell for much because it has a huge HOLE IN THE DECK. Watch as I show you how to tear down this mower to MAKE TOP DOLLAR off of it by selling the parts online. Is this mower A LOT OF MONEY? LIKE & SUBSCRIBE!!!

Kind of interesting because the other day my cub cadet rider pushed out a valve guide and bent a push rod. I decided I was done putting money into it, and just get a new rider. And I was thinking I would get a lot more out of it by parting it out rather than trying to sell a non running rider. Love these videos. And the shout outs never get old! 👍👍👍
Might be the way to go! I’m always surprised what some parts go for on eBay! Got another one planned on an old John Deere soon! Stay tuned for that! Thanks as always for being a cool fan Flint! 👍👍
I got...well too many mowers on the side of the road these past few months. I've had them all running, ok all but ones that looked horrible, one real nice FWD honda engine Husky mower, a couple old 3.5 briggs (run like a champ) and another old honda. One tecumseh mower where the deck was bubbly, i put my foot near the wheel, and it cambered like the guys in their Honda civics LOL. Proceeded to step on the other wheels and next thing you know its slammed to the ground. Oh well. Rest of it could be for parts possibly. Rust is the biggest issue where i live.
Hahaha wheels fell right off! Seen that before! Where abouts are you from Bailey?
Well well, looks like you and me think similarly. Because this is exactly what I did to the free one except I completely gutted the engine due to how horrible it was running. Only difference is that I run a small time shop and I use these parts for things that come in as long as the owners are okay with it.
Great minds think alike BC! I sometime keep parts for future repairs as well! Got another tear down soon! Possible video on that with plenty of money to be made! Stay tuned my friend!
JB, you're a mind reader! I've got an old Craftsman mower with a broken deck, and I've been debating what to do with it. Thanks again! Now get out of my head, stalker. :P
Hahaha you’re in good company on this channel! Oddly enough to many of us on here are all thinking the same way lol! Glad you got a plan now though! Not hard to break these down, put them on eBay, sell them, put them in a priority envelope and send them out! Thanks as always for being a cool fan Mace!
$160 will get you a nice haul at Lowe’s, Home Depot, or Harbor Freight!
Nice vid, JB!!
Right???!!! I have an old John Deere with some big flaws parked in the garage. That puppy has some parts worth some serious cash. Wait til I get to that video. What’s going on in your garage this weekend Paul?
A little effort makes you a decent little profit for very little time. How long does it typically take to sell stuff like this?
Hey Lawn Lover I sell a lot of mower parts every spring. I’m usually at the post office every other day. I would say generally all the parts are gone within 6 months to a year for each mower I rip down depending on their condition and price. I usually price my stuff to sell. I don’t like to be sitting on a mountain of parts lol! How’s your channel going my friend?
@@GarageGear That's awesome, fun little side gig to make some easy cash! Channel is going well, I'm having a blast doing it. Thanks for asking, have a great weekend man!
@@TheLawnLover Awesome! You as well my friend!
I keep a couple 5 gallon buckets in the garage and put scrap in them when I get some from a project. Then I just go to the scrap yard when they are full.
We think alike Greenhorn! I do that from time to time when I know I’ll be visiting the recycling center soon. There’s money to be made there. Thanks for watching! 👍
Great video JB! Pretty nice haul for the time invested. Plus you’re having fun doing it. I wonder if the repair shop on Walden/Transit would be a potential customer? Have a wonderful Father’s Day neighbor!
JAY!!! Right on my friend! Got another mower worth a lot more. That video is coming soon. I have never sold a part to that small engine repair shop but I was in there once before and found out that they give $25 for a mower. They most likely break them down for parts and reuse them to fix up the ones they have for sale out front. What’s going on in your garage this weekend? Have a good Father’s Day my friend!
My garage is sort of setup for an outdoor room. Right now having a bit of bourbon and relaxing. Cheers brother!
@@jaybooth4815 ROCK ON my friend! Enjoy your weekend bud!
@@GarageGear you too!
That Deck Reminds me of Our Roads in Western New York LOL
Haha yeah NT or Lockport lol! Happy Father’s Day to you Dave! Enjoy your weekend!
@@GarageGear Same to you, I have Pets not kids lol
@@DjDaveVoom I must have mixed you up with another Dave that said they had kids. My apologies. No kids here on my end either lol! Would like to get a dog here though! 👍
@@GarageGear All good brother
awesome video, ive also parted out mowers before and have had great suscess.
Right On Will! I made a big down payment on my truck doing this! Plenty of money to be made! Enjoy your weekend my friend!
@@GarageGear thanks you too
a little bit of time and effort to make a decent profit 👍
You got it my friend! My have another video like this coming soon! Thanks for watching and enjoy your weekend Smallblock!
Looks like my mowers I put the tool thru hell
Hahaha you’re not alone in this world Hadley! Thanks for watching! 👍
great video as always JB. JB where can I get a couple garage gear decals? I would love some for my garage.
Hey R. Mason! Email me at Garagegearjb@gmail.com and I’ll send you some! Thanks for being a cool fan!
Now find another but with decent deck and do an engine transplant
Thought about it but this engine sold fast! It’s already gone! Thanks for watching another Carlos!
You've got to have storage space for all the used parts.
I have a good sized shelf in my basement for all of them. Thanks for watching Ben!
The 917 prefix equipment was made by Husqvarna/AYP
Thanks for sharing Shawneehills!
Parts are my biggest issues with getting when fixing old mowers so its true they are worth a lot more normally parted out. Just pulled an engine off an old mower today and was thinking I need a stand to put them on so watching this video was perfect timing as I am going to copy your engine holder.
Awesome Tamiya! Those little $10 rolling carts are perfect for engines! Then you can just roll it to where you need it to go lol! Thanks for watching!
Whatcha gonna do with that engine that still runs? Make a go-cart?
I already sold it William! They usually sell within a week or two! How was your week my friend?
@@GarageGear Great! Did the buyer let on what he/she was going to do with that engine? The week here in Colorado was hot, high 90's, extremely dry. I'm use to dry heat, all is good. I know you had a fabulous week cuz you made money!
@@423co People are just buying mower engines? Better tell me i have like 5 or more just the mower ect deck or overall condition isn't worth repair. i have a 7 ft lbs Briggs (platinum line of engines?) that runs perfect, problem is no blade, no adaptor and the previous guy broke the bolt off in the crank. A welder should get it out, but havn't done that.
@@423co ironically enough the guy said he was going to put it on a craftsman mower lol! Unreal right??? We have a dry heat wave coming as well! Summer is here!
@@baileyhatfield4273 yep people buy them all the time for projects! And they fit many models! 👍
Ive got a 917 mower but cant find a bag for it! Its driving me insane!
Did you try eBay?
Good Vid but too much jibber jabber in the beginning.
Thanks for watching!
Are you jibber jabbing about jibber jabber? 😂
Crapsman.
Craftsman makes some junk mowers nowadays. Thanks for watching!
@@GarageGear I'm going on 2 months since the start of my craftsman ticket.... MTD still hasn't reached out. I got a 163cc plastic hunk of junk during the mower shortage. Absolutely garbage. And the blade options are the 3 in 1 blades. They brand lock you and don't even sell different options at the stores they sell out of. I got a 90s super recycler and a 90s Honda. I'll stick to them. Killer machines built like tanks.
