Our XT3 GSX is giving too much trouble. the deck spindles (bad bearings) have been replaced 3x, It's burning oil, and now has started throwing the main belt. Doubtful I'll be staying in the line. I'm looking as Husqvarnas, we have a 42" with a Kawa that's lasted longer and better.

Cone and cup bearings don't usually go bad; unless, they are not keep greased or water get into the spindles.

As for throwing the main belt I assuming your are referring to the PTO (mule) drive belt and it probably the bearing the double pulley on the deck.

Deck bearing cone and cup are LM11949/LM11910. And the seals are Rotary 12535.
