    We check out an issue with a mower that usually presents as throwing belts, sounding loud or vibrating on a John Deere X300 and we show how to repair these issues
    These are the most common problems when a belt is being thrown off consistently, the deck is cutting uneven or making loud noises.
    This John Deere riding mower has a 42" edge extra deck without an idler arm handle and an electric pto clutch
    We go over the full diagnostic process and repair of the issue with tips and thought process
    We show how to remove the deck on an X300 and how to re-install
    The only process we do not show relating to the deck is leveling it.
    This was not necessary in this case and there are quite a few good videos out there on how to do it
    We run into a few issues created by the use of aftermarket parts and show what we do to resolve them
    Parts Used:
    Deck Belt part number M154621 ( amzn.to/3V5vBmw )
    Idler pulley part number AM135526 ( amzn.to/3K4pf0v ) we use Rotary 14242 ( amzn.to/3yzgsRC )
    Idler pulley part number AM135957 ( amzn.to/3V5vhEk ) we use Rotary 17318
    Idler pulley part number AM135773 ( am135773 ) We use MTD 532173437 ( amzn.to/3yq5ZYX )
    Spindle pulley part number UC26511 ( amzn.to/4dFXNUp )
    Spindle x2 of part number Am143469 ( amzn.to/3QMQW1y ) we use Rotary 13234 ( amzn.to/3ympwt7 )
    Blade nut x2 of 12mm M156416 ( amzn.to/4by0Goy ) we use Rotary 15825
    There are two different size blade nuts used in this application - make sure this is the right size for you
    If you need blades and blade nuts, get the John Deere blade kit that comes with two of each nut and the blades ( amzn.to/3yl4r29 )
    Blade Washer x 2 of Rotary 50439
    Spindle bolt x 8 of 5/16-18 x 1" ( amzn.to/4auH2sy ) we use Rotary 15524
    This will likely be the last time I use these spindles because of the difference in nut size
    8ten has a good quality spindle they sell for this that I would normally use that comes with the bolt/nut (same size as original) ( amzn.to/3WK7Gu8 )
    Deck support spindle reinforcement ring plate can be purchased at amzn.to/3wEavm1

    I started watching your channel recently. This was a great video. What I like most is your candid demeanor. Nothing seems to rattle you and you honestly admit when you get something wrong and don't try to edit it out. It shows your authenticity and makes the rest us feel better in knowing we aren't the only ones who quickly forget how something goes back together. Your experience shows itself because you eventually figure out what you did wrong and always correct it. Keep up the good work. Also i appreciate how you take time to be sure you get the best camera angle so we can see exactly what you are doing.

    Those JD decks on that particular mower are a terrible design. Plus it should probably be at least a 50" deck for that size mower. Thanks for the video.

    Great video, and just what I needed - I got my parts off your list, and saved a ton by not getting them from the dealer. Thank you for this!

    It's unfortunate that they don't make the idler pulleys with replaceable bearings. I have drilled out the rivets and replace the bearings # 6203. Then use grade 5 nuts and bolts to put back together. Much cheaper, and if the bearings go bad again, about 5 minutes and it can be changed out. The pulley itself very seldom go bad, just the bearings

    FYI...on grasshopper deck...mechanic told me to adjust tensioner spring out to fit a nickle between a coil......just fyi

    I take pictures on my phone and use it as a reference. These decks can be complicated especially on larger ones. How many hours was on the machine for all those bearings to go bad. I would also discourage the owner not to wash the deck or underside because it will cause rapid wear of the bearings.

    I use antizee because everyone washes their deck and that one bolt that goes thru will freeze on nut and break it loose which is a problem to redo and a lot of time 😊
