I Got Hit Is My Ride Ruined?????
Well this weekend while at the local atv park my hustler was parked and me and my buds were having a drink in the shade when some idiot on a polaris 700 atv comes outta no were and smalls into the front right corner of my hustler (which was parked well off the trail and 30 other people drove by with no problem) then just yells my bad and burns off. well he put a nice size crack around the headlight all the way threw the main hull about 8 in long. can it be fixed or should buy another and use this for parts

Man, that story about makes me cry, I can only imagine how you feel. Good news is it is fixable. I have heard your machine is made out of HDPE, which is plastic weld fixable with a soldering Iron. There are many threads on how to do it.
Take care and sorry about your hustler Larry

look under my gallery, or search plastic welding.
I've been fixing my Hustler, and, it seems to be working fine......... I guess I'll know when I go swimming, if it works, I'll be dry when I get out........ I don't know how to put a direct link on here, but, look under Ygmir, and, or, I put several search terms for finding it as above. good luck Henry
