I enjoy watching someone else work. I've mechanic for 35 years.
Thanks for watching!
You approached this with a very thoughtful and careful attitude. Well done sir! Subscribed!
I appreciate that!
Thank you for taking time to video this, helped me out a lot and saved me some cash i don't have; God bless!
You're welcome!
Just did this repair over Memorial weekend! My only suggestion is to put the new bearings in freezer prior to installation, the cold shrinks them to the point you can use your thumb to press them in sometimes! Also you need a Spring puller to pull those springs out and install them back! I cleaned deck and applied cosmoline to underside and it drys fast and helps grass slip right off!
Those are great suggestions! Thanks for watching!
The spendles are only $30 on Amazon. Easy to replace too
Yes. Aftermarket ones. Just trying to share another way. Thanks for watching
Thank you. You saved me $450. My mower was a lil different but the basics were the same. Thank you so much and god bless.
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching!!
Nice job. I like your work.
Thank you for watching and commenting!
You did a great job and good explanation!
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the feedback!
Great job 👏
Thank you for watching!
Hustlers fix for that leaning pulley is a very thick body style flat washer added to the underside. The bolt may have been a bit longer, don’t remember. Adding the zerk fitting is a good idea as it keeps the bearings cooler
Thanks for the tip!
Keep all the parts you replace and rebuild them during winter for next season 😊
That’s a good idea!
I replaced one set of spindles on my raptor, SD one time that old set of spindles I took to a machine shop and had them deepn the pocket so I could run a double row bearing top and bottom which makes the mower so much quieter and the bearings last a lot longer. The bearings that I put in it are 5205-2 Z double row angular shielded bearings. If you guys choose to do it, make sure you order the bearings before you take them to the machine shop so they know exactly how much to cut. you don’t need to replace your idler pulleys either if you get bearing 6203z you can heat up the flange on the idler bearing use a pair of vise grips and bend the edge back and then pull out and replace your bearings
Great tip! And thank you for sharing! I appreciate you.
Ok since the factory bearings don't come with lot of grease,I took off the seals and put in the red high temp grease with hopes it will last longer . I haven't install them yet. Anyone do that here
@@1cleosmomthat’s a good idea. Thanks for sharing
The wire to the starter is not hot until the solenoid is engaged. The starter is the new part that replaces the bad starter. There on the third model for replacement.
That is correct. This type of starter uses an external solenoid that is hot on ignition start. Thanks for watching
If I have to arc the solenoid does that suggest I need a new ignition switch? My 54” is in bad shape 😭
@@Iz0pen no bad solenoid.
Thanks for the good video! I have a GTI that needs some help 😀
Lol
Nice work on the Hustler!
Thank you so much for watching!
@@RayofallTrades you’re welcome. I just bought a new Hustler Fastrak SDX 60 on 01-10-2023. I been watching Hustler mower videos. I might drill and tap for a grease fitting on the spindles when it comes time to rebuild them.
@@travisricks3436 if the bearings are sealed like mine, it won't help. Worth a look though. Thanks!
@@RayofallTrades yes the bearings are sealed, but you have to pop the seal off. Very easy to do.
I am putting new pulleys on mine. Do you know if a Torque setting is needed to put the pulleys back on?
thank you I have same hustler
You are very welcome. Thanks for watching!
I've got the same mower and just replaced all 3 spindles, tensioner idler pulley, both springs, and both belts. It's a totally different mower.
I got the spindles off Amazon for $60 and they're made very well.
Thanks for the video.
Very nice! Thanks for sharing and watching!
Great help!
Fantastic thank you!
The battery cable to the starter motor is not HOT until you turn on the key to start the motor.
Correct. The cable to battery is hot then the solenoid gets triggered with the ignition switch which activates the solenoid plunger applying power to the starter. Unless the starter has the solenoid attached, then the power is available at the starter all the time.
I ran across your post, i have the same mower and am in need of the same service.
Thanks for the post. It helps me determine what parts i need and dont need. It seems my deck is a bit noisy when engaging the blades. The spring, i think, must be the issue. The starter drags a bit, but I'm not sure if I'll change that out yet. Oh, my middle blade is completely bent 90 degrees down. i don't know how it's working like that.
Thank you and good luck! Some people paint the underside of the deck when it’s apart to make it last longer too
If it is bent that bad it is also no longer in balance. Please change that blade soon! The asymmetrical forces as it spins will wear out other stuff.
Very good 👍
Thank you very much
It’s way cheaper to just replace the bearing if blade connections ok
If not then replace them and keep old one for parts
Yes I agree. Thanks for watching!
Love
Thanks for watching!
Why new pulleys?
The others were bent and throwing belts
How did you take pully off so easy? Doesn’t the blade turn when you try to take the pully off?
I used an impact wrench. But you can block the blade with a piece of wood while loosening and tightening
Thanks for sharing👍 at what speed are these blades running at?
Sorry but I've never put a tachometer on the blades. Thanks for watching!
What’s the part number on the first pulley you replaced?
I don't remember but I put the links to all parts in the description if that helps
This is why Kohler motors are not what they used to be. Poor engineering
Definitely not like they used to be!

@@RayofallTrades I'm happy my old 2010 Hustler Fastrak has the Kawasaki motor!
