GAJoe 842 #1 Posted January 6, 2023 (edited) The two pullies on the side spindles on the 36" deck that I bought. They look like several that I see from 42" decks, part # 106072. Was the same part used on 36" decks? They' had rust build up on the belt surface and now that I have the rust cleaned out they are not smooth. I'm concerned that it would shorten the belt life. Are my concerns justified? Can you give a part # so that I can start looking for replacements? Edited January 6, 2023 by GAJoe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GAJoe 842 #2 Posted January 6, 2023 (edited) Would trading be a possibility? I thought that I found some on the deck that I bought that needs lots of work. They are the same diameter but a smaller bore ( I think 5/8") without a key way. They were held in place with lock washers under the large nuts. I would trade these pullies and spindle shafts with nuts and lock washers for my pully alone. Edited January 6, 2023 by GAJoe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think that is for the deck that uses lock washers under the grade 8 nuts to hold the pullies down. The pullies don't have key ways. That deck is in too bad of shape to save; lots of rust through. I did salvage the tension bar from it. I did save the pullies and spindle shafts to trade for the pullies that I need with the key way on the 36" deck.

gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,036 #5 Posted January 6, 2023 If there is a pulley that fits the shaft but has no keyway you can use it with a lock washer and regular nut. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
