QuestionQUESTION: Any suggestions on how I obtain an entire bagger assembly for a Sabre model 1742HS?
ANSWER: Did you call and ask your local John Deere dealer if they can order a bagger for your mower?

QUESTION: I DID ask my local dealer, and they told me that my Sabre is 15 yrs. old, and JD D/N make attachments for them any longer. I'm having a difficult time finding one on the internet. I have now considered buying a "leaf-bag" that I found on the web. But I would still need to find a bagger post and hanger, apparently.
Thanks for your quick response. Sounds like I need to "jerry-rig" something. If only I were "handy". lol

AnswerI could not find a bag kit for your mower either...just thought is may have been an accessory that JD only sold through JD dealers as JD does not share much info with non-JD dealers.
Here is a grass bag kit on Ebay for Sabre, $440.00 delivered to your door.

If you have any questions about this part contact Bomberger's at 717-626-3301. I've ordered parts from them before and they are very helpful.
