Still trying to get the mower deck right

[JimP2014]

I have it the way the parts diagram shows it, and i think it could be wrong? T or F?

OK I messed up. It needs to be 34,59,145, and 40. I have some of it correct. I have the small idler pulley where it needs to be and the belt guide too. I got 2 right and 2 wrong. So Sears is correct on this I read it wrong. I have that spacer which only works with the tensioner spring where it does not belong.

These are the parts for the small idler pulley:

Okay I just went back outside again it's 7:00 p.m. on Friday night and I found the small idler pulley is attached to this metal bracket that metal bracket has a gigantic hole inside that hole needs to be the Husqvarna special washer and then on top of that the bolt goes straight through that the small idler pulley is already attached to that metal arm maybe it's supposed to be on the other side than that arm I don't understand what's going on. Maybe revisiting some videos on this deck might help but the way I see it the small idler pulley does not mount directly to the mower deck it has a metal arm.

The way I have it is the large idler pulley attaches directly to the mower deck maybe it's supposed to be the other way around.

So I took a screenshot of repair clinic they have it set up exactly the way I do. In fact repair clinic has it 57,56,55 but Sears has it 57,55,56. I have it the way repair clinic has it.

And the reason why it's such a big deal is because when I tighten that bolt down which has the Husqvarna special washer below it it defeats the spring entirely you can't move that pulley anymore which means you have to keep it kind of loose which means there's vertical play in that bracket this is ridiculous
