The upper would be the pulley on the drive shaft. Can the crack be welded? Please attach a pic of the crack.Me again!
I just pulled the side cover off the 25A to find the upper pully is cracked. It is the pulley that droves the gearbox.
Deere wants about $300 for this.
Any idea where I could get a replacement that isn't so costly?
Storming here now, but I'll pull the cover off mine tomorrow morning. Time to grease the rotor and drive shaft bearings, anyhow. If it is a tapered hub pulley, oem may be your only choice.
Did you check the idler pulley bearings? They are lubed for life. When they fail, their life is up....LOL.
