So tonight I took apart the right pulley and man I'm blown away out how it failed and the belt still stayed on!


I did find out that pulley was on there when I bought tractor. Sometime today it fell off. It has to be laying in my yard somewhere.


I then took apart the left pulley and that thing was seized tight too!


One question I have is when I put the belt back on, it sort of twists. The v part of the belt I sits inside the two pulley grooves and the v part  also sits inside the grooved part on the center deck spindle. That would mean the v part doesn't sit inside the groove on the clutch pulley. That's how it's been since I've owned the tractor. Here's a picture of the old belt sitting on the clutch of pulley.
