I don't understand. That Belt is old and torn up! I can see cracks and chunks missing! That variable pulley is probably 20 years old! Why are you re-using these old beat up parts? What is the purpose of this exercise?

Thank you.

Well done. Not such a big deal after all.

The bolt that holds the variable speed pulley in place has gotten loose and fell out twice. Is the bolt supposed spin with the pulley or do I need some locktight or something

Great video man

Always press bearings . No hammer

For anybody doing this, be CAREFUL removing that center bolt from the bearings/variable pulley assembly. That bolt is a 5/16-24, 3/4 inch long, and there IS red locktite on it from the factory. It will shear off inside the pulley in you're not careful. My advice is to apply heat before attempting to remove. p.s. That bolt is like $10.00 online shipped.....or just go to a hardware store and buy it for 75¢

Would rather see how it was rigged to work when you needed it

Ok, guys, n gals, this fix is great. But Po Boys have po ways. When investigating the problem, I saw that the end of the worm gear was rounded off and not square as the new on in the video showed. That told me that the contact with the steering gear had been at the bottom for its lifetime. Along with the bearing flange being worn out, allowing for horizontal movement, it also allowed vertical movement of the entire shaft, which made the contact point at the bottom where the worm gear was worn and slipping. My fix was simple... I raised the front of the mower with a floor jack. I then disconnected the front deck hanger bar. This allowed for more than enough room to get to the screw. Once removed, I searched my spare parts cabinet and found a bolt with the same length and treads and a flat washer with the same size screw hole and an outside diameter a little larger than the hole the Flange bearing sits in. Put the concave washer on the new bolt, then the flat. Inserted into the shaft and walla, the problem was fixed. Cost: about 20 minutes. Bolt and washer, free for me. I expect my fix will probably outlast the mower itself.

Show it

Just smart to replace brging every five years and grease the needle brings with wheel bearing grease It’s what I do 😊 also to customer mowers

Do you have any suggestions for my issue,, the part where the bushing fits into has rusted a bit and now the bushing will not snug up,, I dont understand why it was made the way it was to me the bushing should have been secured to the frame, or the bushing nut part should be twice as thick so it does not move so easy,, this is what is causing the gears to wear

Part number !?????? For a like

Just leave wheel of tell you get shaft in place and center tires, then install steering wheel 😊 Grease it if you like but pressure wash often and replace grease

Looking for parts list????😢

Fix It or Kic It, great video, thank you. I recently changed the drive belt in my Troy bilt pony (2011), unfortunately; the belt now is very tense, not sure if that’s the way it’s supposed to be, I don't know if that will be the cause of my problem, now I can only control the speed with the throttle lever, even when I put it in rabbit mode the motor goes at high rpm, but the ground speed is about half the normal speed; the (yellow on mine) speed control lever doesn’t work, it goes up and down without locking the notches, offers no resistance and does nothing. (however, the engaging of the parking brake action works fine). I opened up the hood and saw the speed control lever attached to a connecting rod which is attached down there to the cupped metal piece in the correct position as the new Troy Bilt Pony I saw yesterday at Home Depot, but besides allowing to be put in in park position, I don’t see it attached to anything else, is it right? How does it regulate the speed if it is not connected to anything else? Thank you in advance.

Sounds like that engine needs a new camshaft. Decompression mechanism is broke. Very good chance it could take out entire engine. You have broken metal pieces floating around in engine.

Replace that Phillips screw with a hex head bolt.

Use 242 lock tight on bolt is my advice

Thanks., I got 2 defective new cables the end broke on reassembly had to drill hole slightly larger to prevent binding . I needed to see the Spring end of the cable connection had 3 holes available ?

WTF.

Easy fix if you got 100.00 bucks and time

Thank You for information and video

Good information to have. With the labor costs approaching $100.00/ hour it doesn't take much to rack up a bill that is more than the tractor is worth.

Thank you

Thanks for going slow and showing each part made it easier for me

My huskee lt3800 having this issue

Looks easy. Ha. I like how you say pay more attention if screw falls out.

I kicked it 5 times.

Nice video. You sound like bill murray in caddy shack!

How about cleaning your deck first

your battery said 230. mine says something less and a guy said get 300. ???

Thank you this was very helpful much appreciated.

Enjoy the video. I hope it helps someone out.
