Lawn Tractor Variable-Speed Pulley 956-04015B

Disaster

I was sent a plug in starter for motorcycle I think instead of a pulley for a lawnmower that I desperately needed. Then the bolt that holds the pulley was 3 sizes to small

Wrong part and not at all

After providing the representative with the model number of my tractor mower SEars sent me the wrong belt. I asked three times was the boat and washer included he assured me three times that it was.When I receive my package it was not included with the pulley.Also I was sent the wrong drive belt. So I had to spend another hour and a half driving around town trying to find the correct belt and the boat and the washer trying to match them up. Also I ordered this pulley two years ago since then the price doubled. Not only that the pipe they sent me was clearly refurbished wasn't even clean. I am very disappointed.

you just grit your teeth and do it

One of those parts that is located in the 'belly of the beast'. A first time for me on this pulley. A couple of springs to deal with, and one bolt, which acts as a pivot for this and one other pulley, had to come out to remove the pulley and the bracket which it is bolted to. Once it is out, it is a piece of cake to replace the pulley and bearings onto the bracket. Patience is needed, however, in removing and reinstalling the bracket, and reattaching the two springs. A sweat band is recommended.

Tight area that could have been improved greatly

Replaced transaxle speed control pulley and bearings and belts. The final drive is centered under the pulley prohibiting sockets and ratchet use. Had to be rempved and replaced with an end wrench. This could have been improved with a slight shift of mounting components.

Fairly easy

It was fairly easy to install. I had replaced the bearings before, but this time the shaft was worn to much.

Just as ordered.

Just a simple install. I cant give a higher score. Part was good. Shipping time was too slow. Yard turned into a jungle waiting.
