Snapper mower parts.

[dodger44]

Just thought some of you guys might know a good source for parts. The local supplier in Northern Ireland has give up the ghost. I have posted a few pics of my machine and my garage. Hope you can help. Tried some suppliers in North America but when they heard i was from Ireland i was told they do not supply europe.

Best Regards

Welcome to GJ. What do you need for your snapper?

Snapper was bought by Toro several years ago (as was Wheel Horse). Any Toro dealer can get Snapper or Wheel Horse parts.

Have you tried these folks:

I've had good luck with them, shoot them an email and see if they can ship overseas.

Dogger44: If they can't ship overseas I'm sure one of us on GJ could buy the parts you are needing and ship them to you for the shipping fees. Lots of us mess with small engines and the machines they power. Welcome to the journal!

Nice B5/5.5 Audi Audi A4 and Seat. Another VAG junkie I see.

I own several snapper models with one self propelled unit going back 18 years and have an awesome local supplier than can get anything.

Might want to post a model number and anything on the mfr. tag that would help us know more about the mower.



Cheers.

Many thanks for all your help gentlemen much appreciated. I will get the part numbers if i can. I am a VAG nut have had a few Audi a4 b5, they are a great drive and very cheap here in N.I. I didnt know Snapper had been taken over. The local dealer said all manufacturing had re-located to China. The Briggs engine is good to work on and i have rebuilt it several times. I raced world formula briggs karts over here and that class allowed engine rebuilds so engine parts are plentiful enough .

Snapper is owned by Briggs and Stratton, Toro bought Lawn-Boy. According to the Snapper Europe website http://www.snapper-europe.com/ they are represented in Ireland by this place in Dublin: http://www.gardenmachinery.ie/
