Husqvarna YTA19K42 transmission belt.

Okay the CVT transaxle is a CVT 08-1 but all I got at GTI was voice mail and their website don't list anything on the 08-1 unit. Still working on it for an IPL and SM

I did find a youtube video on this unit but it may not be of much help.

Thanks for finding the video sir.

I've been looking for any information for trying to test the tranny, but cant find anything.

I did find out (Engine on, wheels off the ground) while in reverse the the front pulley on the transmission doesn't turn.
It does start turning in forward but its slow.

Thanks Sgkent,

So far the prices I've found for the tranny range from $450 to $750.

The gduible link was a strange. Somehow I dont think I could buy at new mower for $75..lol Maybe the shipping is $2000...lol

I'd call anyway cause they might have decided to get rid of surplus stock at that price. That said I think it is a web page problem where another part is mis-linked to that trans.

Update...

Husqvarna service center found a different part number for the tranny.
AYP (American Yard Products) 532415663 Transmission Variator Tx 18/20 -S2. at $950 out the door.

This claims to be an OEM part but my existing is a GT415663, is there a chance it wont fit?
The replacement from General transmissions is GT87007. I found the GT87007 on walmarts website for much less. $650
One thing about them is they have free returns. Or is it time to replace an 11 year old mower?
