@Troy Malachi did you really make a fake account to respond to yourself lol
@@RepairGang Hello. I have a troy bilt pony 7 speed 42" 2015 model.I replaced the deck belt with an OEM Mtd and I noticed that the deck idler bracket and pulley moves up/down rapidly when the blades are engaged. What could possibly cause this? So far I have ordered a new bracket because I noticed the hole was wallowed out a bit and I've ordered the new metal hat washer that sits down in the hole. I know that the assembly has to move but the up/down motion is causing vibration throughout the mower.
@@memphistiger4647 without looking at it I would say pully is bad or belt too loose or tight. Let me know or email me a video
@@RepairGang Will do. Thank you.
I used to be an auto mechanic in my younger days and always had problems getting things apart because nothing is easy. Love how you show real world repairs. Not like the Troy build on show room floor nice and clean
thank you for watching
I can relate
I am glad to see a real video cause i was beginning to think was the only one who struggles when it comes to repairing things.
I enjoy seeing kids helping and learning how to do things and repair stuff
Take time for them
Thanks man. Just got my new belts and this helps a lot. Thank you!
Thanks, that was very real. You had the same frustrations that I always have.
Nice work, I gave up working on the ground a few years ago, only do work in my shop now. Suggestion: uninatall and install the negative battery terminal first and last. Saves sparks and burned tools. Thanks for the video.
I'm willing to bet a few bucks ole' boy expected a discount on his repair bill for his mower "starring" in this video.😂
I like this video great video I just purchased a Troybilt 46 auto bronco two weeks ago been trying to figure out how to change the oil out
I use an oil extractor but there should a be a hose one passenger side
I enjoy watching your videos, nice work! 🛠🧰
Thank you so much comment on my super clean video to enter drawing i pick a winner tomorrow
Sometimes I use large binder clips or old jumper cable ends to hold belts in place and also dielectric grease for the electrical connections. Great job on the repair.
Thank you
Nice work.
Your pine cone made me remember buying one of my neighbors riders years ago. Almost new but it kept breaking belts. It was fine in our yard. Used it for about 10 years. If he would have just done something with all the sweet gum balls he wouldn't have needed to go get him a new John Deere. I only gave him a hundred for a one year old mower. Exactly what he asked me for it.
Pine cones ftw
P
I want my mower back!
Thank you sir!!!
Anytime partner
If you compress that front pulley belt keeper on the other side you can simply turn out out of the way instead of removing the whole thing. Also a rubber strap is good for holding deck hangers up and out of the way
Thank you kindly sir, very helpful. I appreciate it
No problem my friend
I remember my PTO went going out last year in the middle of the season. I admit I had help getting a new one put in. To me it was a pain putting a new belt on also. First they gave me the wrong belt and been struggling with it for hours very frustrating. I didn't drop the deck so that was even worse. I finally got the right belt, but still struggled with it cause. I was cussing up a storm Lol. Well you did it a lot faster than me. Nice job Andrew and great video brother.
Thank you as always this is my most popular video
@@RepairGang Your very welcome. Oh yea I can see that 14K views congrats brother.
Brother I've got a custom mower myself. I've cussed a many a time at it lol
@@357bullfrog9 forgive me lord ( cussing not in vain ) neighbors can hear me, Blessed with good neighbors. all wrong parts except blades, I asked for a pony not a friekin bronco or a stallion, God Bless
They keep testing us I swear, due diligence complete, #s names sizes ect: I still cant git my fat azz up and down on the ground 100s of times trying to make the wrong parts work. thank you bro be good to yourselves
Good video
nice work Andrew ill be watching
Thank you my friend!
what did you do with the extension spring on the deck. I am having the time of my life putting it back on
May neighbors pony had a recent belt change like you described but the speed lever now only has one speed…slow. And, it has to be in speed selection position 7. Same speed forward or reverse. Can you provide any insight as to why he can’t select another speed?
I just bought the same mower it’s a 2007 this will help with the belt changing process..
I'm glad. Yeah it's a pain in the butt
You have no idea what you're doing. Learning as you go just like the rest of us.
Lol probably right but hey it is what it is never said I was the end all be all
@@RepairGang I replayed this looking for the placements of springs, Full repair not but thank you for sharing as I know your video will help many, I especially Loved hearing your Customer in the back ground as you performed your job, it so could have been me as difficulty working on the ground is why we hire and pay others a bit younger, Be careful stay safe, Thank You
Made it look easy and fast though! Record timing. Even though I've done this job quite a few times, I would look waay worse than usual if I was trying to film it! And this lawnmower is a pain in the arse no matter how much you know
Yeah, this guy is OBVIOUSLY not the "sharpest tool" in the shed!!
we have a troy bilt bronco 42in 19hp riding mower that will not go inti the forward gear any ideas of whats going on with it please let me know thank you
Without looking at it I would check your transmission or I would check the speed to see if it's actually shifted in a year
Where is the spring for the deck tensioner pully?
How do u rebuild the deck
Nice video. Good work
Thank you for the kind words
Good work ( lol), not even checking the pulleys. I wouldn't even have this A**hole working on a Tonka toy........
Raise the deck linkage to get it out of the way. Also, at 10:38 you just ruined the belt. You should loosen the pully so they come off or bend the guide with pliers. Don't forget to bend it back.
Good idea for next time
God bless you for saying that. I was about to lose it for real. Bleeding knuckles and all.
Also, MAYBE a good idea to check the pulley bearings for excessive wear by at least spinning the pulleys by hand with the belts off. Might save a belt or two, DAH!
1:12 "cmon you piece of shit" lol
😂😂😂
I wish I said it
How do I find manufacture date on Bronco?
I've found a big reason for the belt popping off the tensioner pulley is the pulley is straight out on the lever. It should be angled more in the direction of the crank pulley when the deck is all the way down. I bent the pulley bracket and haven't broken a belt since.
thank You brb may have just saved me...
btw Extension Spring missing add to that problem, whoa brb magnets to find it
Good time to take apart and drill grease zerts and remove in side brging covers
No offense, you got 22K views off this, ?? Man ur doing something right. I was talking to myself watching this. I'll give you an A for effort. USA USA!
Yeah people like entertainment videos
I'm still a better actor then amber heard
I would give him an "A" too, 'A" for a**hole...
Do you need to take the Iler pulley off force in the belt between the keeper you will damage the belt
Yes
I never thought I would see a lawn tractor built SO cheaply as to NOT have anti-scalp wheels on the deck. But, I have now!!!
lol
I think the same thing ,I bought new one changed pto and no wheels on deck and still cost 2000plus cheap built 1st year pro went 2nd year belt and smokes on hills.
Pto not pro
I changed my belts now it started making a grinding noise an it stopped going
Sounds like something was smashed maybe a too small belt
Bro I am so pissed off right now there is no help for these damn thing I can't understand why my rear control arm for my deck is rubbing up against the pulley for my transaxle there is little no help cuz it feels like the bottom of my rider is crooked and I know it's not this all started because the right side of my mower every time it hit an angle it dug into the dirt please tell me what I'm looking for
Hey if you can email me simplysmallengine Gmail I can help you better if you send me a few pictures :)
You did well. However, never resuse old cotter pins. Should have replaced all the belts with deck off. Probably clean it much more.
shoulda coulda woulda I am so organized no problem, knew I had new somewheres only took me months to come across the parts, lol
Now back to battling three foot grass, take care,
What size deck belt?
103.7 I think
Hi, how long is the belt? I need a New one aswell on the deck
106.7cm
Are you sure that's the Deck? I converted 106.7cm to inches and it's 42" which is drive belt.
@@johncolen3379 sorry I used a 96 inch belt
@@RepairGang thank you, enjoyed the video.
Mine has 3 belts
Praise the sun!
Sun bro. First one to notice it
Dear Friends. Please, help. My left (Driver side. The one with the adjustment gear) of the deck is high. The right side (passenger side. grass outlet side) is low. When lever is on position 4, i.e. the second highest, the right side of the deck scrapes the grass! The gear is all the way up. I.e "Driver side" of the deck is all the way down, but still too high. Do I need a new deck? New tractor? Thanks in advance.
There should be adjustments or the store put deck on wrong
@@RepairGang This is 11 years old tractor and it was fine until recently. I adjusted the gear all the way down, there is no more to go.
@@west_park7993 something seems bent or broken hard to tell without looking at it if you can maybe time to get a new tractor or deck but it's probably fixable
What year model is that
I don't remember off hand
What size belt is it? I'm not sure if you said. I've searched and called parts stores and no one knows lol.
Drive or deck belt? Driver is 106 cm and 96 inch deck belt
@@RepairGang deck belt that turns the blades.
amzn.to/3v39G0U here is a link to the belt you need
@@RepairGang is the 106cm for the deck so the blades turn? The 96" is for the drive right? Thank you so much for your help!!!
You want the one in link 106 cm with is 46 inch for drive but you want the 96 for blades
@20:24 You installed the lift rod into the wrong hole on the deck left lift arm. You should have used the smaller lower hole. You can see at :58 what it should look like. Also I wish that would have shown the front deck rod. That can be installed upside down too. Can briefly see it in the beginning of the video but not after you put it on. Had my mower serviced and my mower cuts uneven with the front deck rod scrapping my tie rod because it was misassembled.
Damn you right
Pro tip: cotter pins come out easier when their mother's personal lives are discussed in french.
Lol that's the truth 💯
I watched this video to see where one of the blade activation return springs should be hooked. Both your return springs are missing.
19:53 is the only spring that was on this model
It looks exactly like my deck which has a spring on each idler pulley. I stumped.
@@jerrysorrell4907 did you ever find a solution? I’m at this point now.
He threw them away, thought they were EXTRA parts!
My Troy bilt does not move until it is on 4, 5, 6 or 7.
I never heard of that I would have to see it in order to help
After watching that I need a nap I'm worn out watching
My wife kept asking who I was talking to?
Boy.... I bet it does not take long to get your grass... lol
What grass in Arizona hqhah
My blades wont engage and turn
I wonder why I'd have to actually check. You can email me pictures. Maybe some videos
\[T]/ Praise the Sun!
Praise
COME ON MAN if i did not know better that customer is not very good at maintaining equipment good lord i got one that old that still can be waxed like brand new looking , 6 acres of grass mowed all summer for years now , just change out belt and oil clean , rinse and repeat lol, couple of things when you want to pull the deck just raise the lever on deck to get bars out of way and why do people insist you have to remove the pully guard for a belt change it slide inbetween just fine less work same result. OKAY watched to end could i ask you something was this the FIRST time you worked on a riding mower ???
Lol I have gotten better over time first troy bilt pony
Trans pulley is terrible designed and can’t replace belt unless remove and working belt off and on
COME ON MAN really i mean your a machanic why not raise the lever the bars will go up and stay up/ dont know about the rest of you that own a troy built pony but they are a cheap knock off of say the lx426 model own one of each and the newer pony breaks down on every issue its a piece of crap
Thank you for the tip and watching sorry it's cringe if I did the same video now it be better
Clueless
It's older video
Well who cares it’s fixed and working ok
