I have the LA145 John Deere.. Today during mowing, deck stopped turning.. Figured it was the belt that snapped.. Had it happen before..
Well, belt was off of the pulley system, but not because it broke..
There is an idler sheave bracket with a wheel on it through which the belt routes. The sheave has a spring that allows this particular wheel to tense.. Anyway.. the bracket (metal at that) broke and it was hanging by.. a thread..
I can't seem to find this part anywhere.. I find the "wheel" part everywhere, but not the bracket to which it is attached..
Anyone any ideas? Please? Thanks!
