    Really well done. I was unsure if I had a loose belt or a failing trans. Now that I see yours, clearly my belt is too loose. It looks as loose without the brake on as yours looks with the brake on. And great tip on raising the front. Many thanks.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video. It was a big help. Also thanks to the guy who mentioned you can use an allen wrench for the transmission belt guard. Way quicker than a open end. Ran into an issue with mine. It's a LA145 with electric clutch PTO. Clutch came off fine but couldn't get the drive pulley off the engine. Ended up unbolting the engine to lift it up a few inches to get the old belt out and new one in.

    Truly awesome video. After watching it and another one you did on the D140, I changed the belt on my D130. I did not have an impact wrench, but after trying to break the nuts loose with a hammer and a wrench, without success, I bought one. Absolutely the way to go.
    Setting the parking brake is a super tech tip. Thanks for that!
    I discovered that, if the fan is in a good position, a 1/4” hex wrench will fit between the blades into the belt guide for the transmission pulley, as you noted. It was difficult to fit into the bolt, due to dirt, but once it was in there, turning it went a lot quicker.
    I made one sophomoric mistake, and I’ll mention it to save others the problem. I did not notice that the new belt went outside one of the engine pulley guides when I slid the pulley back on. After starting the engine and releasing the brake, I heard a grinding noise. It was the belt being shredded by the guide. I caught it fast enough that the belt was not destroyed, but I will probably replace it again at the end of this season.

    Great video, super helpful! I’m so thankful people like you take the time to fill in the gaps the manufacturer leaves. (My JD owners manual doesn’t even mention this belt.) About that pesky guide on top of the transmission, I was having no joy coming from the front like you show. I found there’s a couple of little slots in the steel plate at the rear of the mower that I could look through and see the guide. I could reach around through the wheel well and get to it. Worked great for me so others might want to try it.

    Thanks so much for your detailed instructions, my 21 year old JD L110 just gave up the Ghost on the drive belt. At first I thought it might be the tranny gone bad, smelt like burnt rubber when it went. So, I pulled up your site on YTube and saw your video and decided what the heck. Orderd new belt and pulleys and rented a Impact Driver from Home Depot for $17.00 for four hours and that was well worth it to get the nuts off. Saw another video that was posted about tilting your tractor on it's left side if you don't have a lift or jacks. I tilted mine about 45 degrees and leaned it up against my utility trailer and that gave me great access to the underside and belt. No gas or oil leaked by tilting the tractor over. Thanks again

    Greetings from Great Britain and many thanks for such a helpful video. I've just changed the belts on my JD X110. Getting the drive shaft/pulley off without an impact driver just wasn't going to happen so here's an alternative and maybe easier method: (1) remove the belt from the midway pulleys; (2) draw the steering shaft upwards to free the belt; (3) remove the plate under engine that holds the guide pins; (4) remove belt from the upper (small) drive pulley under engine; (5) remove that pesky guide pin from above the transmission; (6) you then have enough slack to remove the belt carefully over the fan and off the transmission pulley; and finally (7) remove from the drive shaft. Bingo!

      I put on a shorter belt, 88 inch. Works fine now but changing belts is an SOB on this. Everything must be removed, engine pulley guides, steering column, idler pulleys, with the rear (transmission) pulley being the worst with a stud that can barely be reached even with the tractor lifted up.

    I've got a D105 but this was a big help. Currently it's in a bout 5 different pieces.
    In order to loosen that bolt on the drive pulley; If you pop the little J.D. cap off the top of the motor there's a nut under there you can hold with a 15/16th socket to keep the motor from turning

    Excellent tutorial. Changed my D105 belt no problem. It had been struggling up small inclines and come to find out the belt was ready to break. Didn't even have to lift the machine to change. The only difference was the transmission pulley has no fan and the keeper guide bolt and roller is different. Thank you!

    Thanks for the video. I just changed my drive belt, took about an hour to 90mins. Didn’t keep track but wasnt long. Unlike you i have modified my car hoist so I can drive the mower on and lift up either my mower/quad etc and get right underneath them to make work and maintenance easier.. plus I can raise it up and down to the right height when working on the side..
    I made a couple of goofs, I threaded the belt through the 2 pulleys and bolted them up and then tried to get the belt over the back pulley.. then had to take the pulleys off again.. I also didn’t worry about the steering, just did what I had to do underneath then took the steering wheel off and aligned it later as it wasnt right to start off with..
    Thanks for the video..

    Excellent video. Clear and concise. BTW, the 6mm alan key was easy enough when reaching in over the fan from behind the tranny. It's really cramped any way you go. There's a hole for a screwdriver in the center of steering gear plate to hold it still while you break loose the 19mm nut. There's a tool that uses the two holes in the crankshaft pulley to hold it while you break loose the 5/8 nut. Without it or an impact wrench, it's a pain.

    As far as a way to remove big crank pulley, I happened to have a little piece of "mechanics wire" (airline cable like) only 1/8" thick, 22" long, with the corresponding tiny 1/8" thick cable clamps with tiny 7mm nuts, run it through 1 of the 2 holes in the belt pulley on big crankshaft part and around the sturdy deck belt bracket guards for the deck belt, put on tiny cable clamp, and using breaker bar bust loose the 5/8" nut holding big pulley part on crank. This is on a E130 mower which looks the same as this mower.

    Nice video. As far as removing the drive pulley bolt without an impact wrench, remove one of the spark plugs, get a piece of 1/4 inch x 1.5 foot long rope, insert it into the spark plug hole leaving about 6 inches remaining outside the engine. As you rotate the engine from the top, the cylinder will run into the rope and provide the resistance to use a socket on the driver pulley bolt allowing you to remove it. Repeat when tightening the bolt, remove the rope, replace and tighten your spark plug.

      Either a wrench or if you look at some of the comments, someone suggested you can get to the top of the guide with a allen driver, not sure what size it is and if you can get a socket allen driver it will be easier.

      I started out doing the drive gear and did the belt. The drive gear I got in looked almost the same, but it had less teeth and restricted the steering on the left. No way to correct it and part was supposed to be for all D100 series. Have to put the original back. Lucky it wasn't chewed up, just the gear on the steering wheel shaft was.
      I'm playing with adding a thin washer to the gear to take up some slop in it. I'm surprised they designed it to have so much play.
