Something is telling me that shaft might be bent as well. Might as well replace the engine if that's the case, wouldn't you agree?Originally posted by: Eli
eh, if they said it's 46$ that's probably retail.. you most likely aren't going to find it for any significant ammount less.
You're complaining about spending less than 50 bucks on a riding mower that would be 10 - 20x more expensive to replace.. lol
Be thankful it's just the drive pully and not the whole engine.
Eh, last mower we had lasted something like 25 years. Would've lasted longer if I'd seen the oil leak before trying to run it.
It was a '76 Simplicity. We got it used in the '80's. Don't remember the price anymore. It was a high-mid range garden tractor. Our new tractor is a 2000 Simplicity Broadmoor (again, bought used). I think those go for around $4,000 new.
Yes, but it's very very hard to bend the shaft on a riding lawnmower AFAIK... it isn't like a regular push mower where the crankshaft holds the blade and sees all the punishment that comes along with it .. lolOriginally posted by: earthling30
Didn't realy cost that much, but I think it has given me really good service so far.

No, though Simplicity does have a Commercial brand under the corporate umbrella too.
