Kubota BX 2200 54\" MMM Side Bearing Replacement

I replaced the upper and lower bearings and seals for the left side pulley. After replacing I tested it out and it worked great for about 5 minutes when all of a sudden the mower boggged down and the left side pulley locked up. I pulled the pulley back off and and noticed that the upper bearing was blown out once again. Since I thought I screwed the whole thing up I decided to take it to my local Kubota dealer for them to rebuild the pulley. I picked it up today (Friday) and put it back on and mowed for a couple minutes when the same thing happened except this time it looks like the lower bearings are screwed up.

Any suggestions on what could be happening?
