DECK # 0537SC01 If you're talking about the pulleys on the 'mule drive' at the front by the right front wheel, one is a VEE and the other is FLAT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rlrnot 39 #3 Posted May 24, 2021 (edited) The idler pulleys (part no. 111170) on the 05-37SC01 deck are both vee pulleys. ALSO, this deck uses belt no. 111178, which is a 6 sided belt, which means BOTH pulleys on the mule drive are vee pulleys as well. The confusion arises because I believe there is a 37" deck (possibly 05-37SC02) that uses a conventional belt (3 sided) and consequently the pulley configuration changes for the idler and mule on that deck. I have the 05-37SC01 deck and the idlers and the mule drive pulleys are vees. Edited May 24, 2021 by rlrnot 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PbFlinger 64 #4 Posted May 24, 2021 The forward idlers on mine are both flat. Mine uses the conventional V belt. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DECK # 0537SC01 05-37SC01 has all V-pulleys and uses a 6-sided belt. It could be changed to like the 05-37SC02 with some flat idlers and use a 4-sided regular belt. The front idler assembly in this case has one flat idler and one V-idler. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
