The spring should connect in the small hole next to the square hole on the right side in this picture.


Most likely the hole were the spring was connected will have a keyway wear area and be shiny.

The back end is connected, I don't know where the end facing the camera goes. The belt broke so I think it is related to this spring.

Does anyone have a picture of where this spring attaches on both ends.
Thank you

Never mind. I went on another forum and within 30 minutes several gentlemen replied with pics showing where the spring went.

THOSE PICS DON'T SHOW WHERE THE SPRING ATTACHES, USELESS.

Can you show a full top view of picture your deck? That would be helpful. This is an idler lever tension spring that broke the end off. The lever that swivels on the deck has a pulley. One of the holes in that lever should have signs of a wear notch, or there is a pin standing up on the lever assembly for the spring to attach to.

If you would of blown the picture up you can see the hole that I described where the spring connected. Also it would of help if you could of verified the model number as requested in your original post , because the model number you listed is for a 2010 Troybilt with a 38 inch deck not the 2003 you claim it was with a 42 inch deck. https://www.lawnmowerforum.com/threads/troy-bilt-riding-mower-42.79335/ where Starlink also answered with the picture that you claim we didn't provide.

Maybe you should stay on the other forum with 30 minute responses.

Hollydolly, I’ll bet that your brain size is smaller than your shoe size, plus you were born after 1990. You came here asking for help and when it takes longer than your brain can handle, you bad mouth this forum. ILengine is one of the top guys on this site and bad mouthing him shows your mechanical skills and communication skills are equal to a freshman in high school. You can’t even supply us with the correct model number, or apologize for not doing so. I suggest you stick with the other site, as they are more intoned to your mental capabilities.

Rivets, I'm sure your brain size is the same as your ????. There were a few replies in the beginning and then nothing for several days and now you can't shut up!! You must have set down and cut off the blood to your tiny brain. You are a low life computer ninja. Go play with your tiny brain and leave me alone.
The model # is on the sticker under the hood of the mower. Do you still beat your wife.

We needed to see a full top view of the deck, your photo just showed mostly the broken spring. You sound like you are blaming us because you did not get instant gratification from the minimum info provided.

My Crystal Ball broke years ago and my Magic 8-ball sprung a leak. LOL

Glad you got it resolved through another site. Not everyone is totally familiar with the model you have.

If you would look at this site, you will see that using the model number you supplied, it is a 2010 model, not 2003. https://www.partstree.com/models/13wv77kf066-troy-bilt-tuffy-lawn-tractor-2010. My tiny brain has forgotten more about small engine repair than yours can hold. I’ve never beaten my wife, but I’ve shown a lot of DIY guys, who are smarter than you, that not being able to admit to their errors they aren’t they aren’t the brightest crayon in the box. I hope your brain can understand what I’m saying.

I think you have TWS. Not sure where the 2003 came from, guess I typed it wrong.
The model # is as the sticker on mower says. Mower has PONY emblem on lower hood.
Zip your pants so you don't lose that tiny brain. AMF

Posting pics here is to much trouble, I have to resize the pics.
Mower problem is fixed, no need to beat a dead horse.
