Joun Deere 160 Drive Belt Replacement

[Nick in Palatka]

Does anyone know how much of the steering has to be removed to replace the drive belt on a "160 Tractor-38"?
Is there a pdf of the service manual available?
My local JD dealer is sometimes helpful, and sometimes not, depending on whom I talk to.

160 and a LT160 are quite a bit different

the plain 160 is from the 80's

the LT 160 is from the 2000's

So before we go nay further probably a good idea to get Nick to confirm which 160 it is
160
D 160
E 160
LT 160

I am doing the drive belt replacment too (on a JD 160)> Could I somehow get that JD info too? Ron J Thar steering involvement has me puzzled. If you could send m thar JD Service tech manual PDF I would really appreciate it Even just the part involving replace ment of drive belt..really like the mower.
