well, if it's any consolation there are plenty of "Safe spaces" and "Sanctuary locals" you can run to.....

Sonny & Cher - - - and, "The Beat Goes On", and on, and on, and on............ 🙄

did you ever get this issue figured out. 3-1/2" - 4" is not high at all, that's pretty much my standard cutting height.... if I'm gone for a month I'll have to cut anywhere from 9" - 12" and only have to slow down my speed too about 1/2 - 2/3rds normal speed.

Thanks, but no offense taken... forums like these almost need a mandatory "fill in the blanks", i.e. pertinent make, model, part#, etc. and add any photo's for original postings - instead of trying to read posters minds. I know no one wants to try reading mine, it will be a fast assignment... 🤔

I'm sorry, do I genuflect now, or at some later time . . . . . 🥱 Maybe it would be simpler for the poster to just trade it in for a new easier unit.... 😉

My bad, I didn't assume you didn't do your due diligence since you do a great job in your posts, I simply goofed up and responded to your post assuming it was the original poster replying. So, another note for next years resolutions - look to see who wrote what first ..... 🫣

You originally stated that,"The current belt is 60” - as has been mentioned already, this is the incorrect belt. It absolutely positively requires the M158130 -149.98 " belt. Either you're routing the belt wrong, or the snowblower is not installed totally in sync with the tractor. There are no...

in the replacement parts section, what belt part # does it call for ... ?

"NO" actually HE didn't, that was StarTech who provided some spec's; but, that's no guarantee they match what his unit requires...

Uhmmm, like NO you haven't...!

do you have any of it? They only need a small piece to measure the inside diameter. Then just get 6 - 8", route it to where it goes and cut off any remaining....

do you have the old hose..? If so, just take it to any auto store and have them match it up . . . . .

buy some Moth Balls and put them into a baggie, pin prick the baggie a lot, then place the baggie under the cowl and on top of the engine shroud to keep rodents from building any nests in there ....

how about starting at the beginning, i.e. - did you buy this tractor and snowblower new, and do you have the manuals? - - - link - - - http://manuals.deere.com/omview/OMM177515_19/OUO2004,0000D2F_19_20151030.html that thing should handle 3' of snow with ease if working properly..... my 40+...

what are you going on about.... I just finished snow blowing 8", sheezzzz ⛷️

you do know that air is not as clean today, like it was 50 years ago. You need to replace it ever 60 days ..... 😉

Joined Dec 20, 2024, and hopefully expelled Dec 20, 2024.....

why can't they go back to Windows 3.1, when things worked..... windows 11 sucks worse than Congress

stop at NAPA and see what they have....

do you mean you dropped and "busted" the coupler apart...??? is this the shaft you're referring to...

check the Ferris UK links, you might get lucky... ;-)

how high is high...? and, what height setting are you using...?

are the blades installed upside down...?

where's a fella to start; hmmm, well starting with the oldest - a) 1981 Case 108 with deck and snowblower (only the engine has been rebuilt) everything else still original and fully operational. b) 2003 JD X585 with 54" deck, 47" snowblower, leaf & grass bin, JD soft cab, and Little Johnny...

according to the parts diagram, there shouldn't be any steel insert, just an upper "and" a lower bronze bearing...

have you checked "PartsTree.com", it shows up for $108.99, but you'd have to call to be certain ..../

post a picture of unit

for what it's worth, this is lowest price I've seen on this unit - - - Husqvarna TS 248XD (48″) 23HP Kawasaki Lawn Tractor w/ Locking Differential $2,144

no idea how the market is in your area; but, maybe check out FB Marketplace for a decent used rig.... I just picked up a mint '07 X700 with under 500 hours, 54" deck, 47" blower, full metal Curtiss cab with heat - $8K . . . . .

this is the new Common Core math they promote.....

or "both"...

you still wearing panty hose...lol

isn't that what we use to call Horse Snot....

But, but, doesn't California have and promote annual m/v inspections and emission testing, etc. standards that they want the rest of the country to emulate .... duhhh, lol.

I was never a big fan early on due to what I felt was their over inflated prices, then I had a chance to buy a used JD 345 for a steal. Wow, what a machine that was, until it got destroyed in a fire - waaaa! So, then I moved up to an X585, awesome unit. Then another deal came along for my...

so, you have to combine several colors to get this thing called black, got it .... lol

have you changed out that PTO switch yet...?

does anyone else find it ironic (actually moronic) that L. A. still has the worst air pollution in the country. It's almost like they are in competition with cows and their "emissions". Hmmmmm.....

Black is the absence of all color. Now, ponder that for a moment .....!

is this what you're looking for - - - https://www.scribd.com/doc/59050806/Ranch-King-Lawn-Tractor-Owner-s-Manual

So, they make 700% + profit, what's the big deal. Exit stage right.........................!

have you looked at something comparable in the JD line, one-n-done, and you'll have a better machine all around - jmo.....

since you already stated you've tried using "grease", how about using some "Lucus Red & Tacky"' or, good old fashion "Cosmoline".....

Hmmm, quick ? - - - how many torque wrench users have their wrench recalibrated annually..... "silence"

when was the last time you bought an plug-in tool that lasted 45 years after daily work use, I have several; but, not a single battery tool has lasted 5 years...... Oh ya, I have a 1981 Case 108 tractor with a deck and blower that my son uses, and which is still going strong after HOURS and...

sounds like you need a goat instead of a mower...

yup, it's ingenious... should make up a few and sell them $$$

ahhhh ha, got it... but thanks anyway. When I spoke to the parts department I asked him to "confirm" that they had one = "Yes", so I guess someone's walking it here... ;-(
