Need a little help

[NCturkeycaller]

Hello all, first post here. I have a woods 6182 mow'n machine which I was told was made by grasshopper. The main deck pulley has started making noise and I figure its a bearing gone bad. I can't find a schematic for this mower online and I bought it second hand so no manual either. Can anyone tell me where I could find a part number for this pulley or maybe a cross reference for which grasshopper mower mine is modeled after? Thanks for any help.

Which pulley? Idler? Spindle?

It the main pulley that the driveshaft turns. When I raise the deck cover its in the middle in the back if you're in front of the mower deck looking at it. Make sense?

The Woods and Grasshopper are the same however without the model "and" serial number I can't locate. They make a 30, 42, and a 50 inch deck. Some of the idler bearings, like many, can not be replaced because they are crimped on to the pulley. I won't be able to get back to you until next week, but others I am sure will jump in. I am leaving Arkansas on Sunday and driving back home to California where I will be buried in work at the shop.

I will try to find model and serial number and post it later. Its raining sideways right now. It's a 52 inch deck if that helps.
