    Sometimes old work horses never die

    So brief thank you to the gentlemen that answered my mule drive question earlier. Thank you. After repairing the mule drive on my 106 I tried to run a few laps mowing the back yard and found out the engine started bogging pretty hard. I figured it would be one of those pocket book taxing ordeals...

    106 mule drive belt kicking off spring pulley

I ended up putting a sleeve in the mule mule on the right hand side and it tightened up the slack a considerable amount. It did fix the belt issue although I ran a couple laps yesterday to make sure the...

    106 mule drive belt kicking off spring pulley

    Thanks, yea got all that at work I forgot about the rod being welded in I might as well do like you said and do it right. I didn’t know about the tension either. I just had read about pulleys needing to be 90 degrees from the pto to operate correctly

    106 mule drive belt kicking off spring pulley

    106 mule drive belt kicking off spring pulley

    Thank you for your reply’s. The belt is a 3/8x80 I believe I’ll have to go back and look the part number back up through charlys faq section here. The pulleys are the same as the old ones that were on it. I know they could have been replaced but the tractor as a whole looked to be original when...

    106 mule drive belt kicking off spring pulley

    Hello all, long time lurker here. I have a cub 106 42 inch mowing deck that I have been working on for a year or so. When I bought it the previous owner said the mower deck would slip the mule drive belt and he thought it was because the pulleys were rusted up on the deck and mule drive. I have...
