chex313 123 #1 Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) I think I am going to have to destroy one of the pulleys on my 48" deck to get it off. It doesn't look unusual. I was wondering if it might be available somewhere. I don't see any on Ebay. Thanks Edited May 3, 2015 by chex313 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trouty56 565 #3 Posted May 3, 2015 Try clamping a belt around it with vise grips and securing it somehow......use the impact gun on the spindle from the bottom.....sometimes that will shake them loose.... if not I'm sure Dave has one or 2..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your describing exactly what I tried. I clamped multiple vise grips on it and kept it from turning. But the spindle bolt started rounding off from the impact. Turned it red with heat...I have a friend who is better equipped and he is going to try, up to and including cutting it off. Going to get the whole deck welded up. There were some small cracks showing under the spindles, along with metal fatigue on the back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
