i have several motors with the 1" x 3" shaft size but i have a particular mower that is set up to require the bigger 1 1/8" x 4" shaft for the pulleys to fit and line up correctly for the pto and the drive pulley to fit
my question is, i have seen the shaft reducers that can convert it from 1" into 1 1/8" shaft but it is still going to be too short at 3" long, plus those adapters all use a key slot to lock them in place so the pulley wont work since the key is part of the pulley and not long enough to lock everything in place
so what are my options? since buying another motor is out of the question at this point
is there a true adapter that enables you to convert from a regular 1" x 3" shaft motor to turn it into a 1 1/8" x 4" shaft
