I have replaced all the spindles and pulleys and I am getting a bad vibration when I engage the belt. The belt is fairly new but it is an aftermarket. After running it for a bit I did notice some shredding. Suggestions?

Belts shred because they are rubbing against some thing that they should not or a pulley that should turn freely is not .
So get some one the sit on the mower, arm yourself with a strong pencil point flash light and watch the belt running
A bag of concrete / gravel / sand will often substitite for an assistant
Just be very careful where you put your hands & feet it is very easy to end up with the under the deck which may lead to an unhappy end.
