I suspect the poster mistyped (as you suspected) 2620 while meaning 2320 since profile shows owning a 2012 GC2400.
but JUST in case...

Yes I meant 2320. Thanks. I will order one. That price isn’t terrible.

dealer marks up a bit to cover their cost.
their ain't crap in aftermarket that directly cross references.
looked for this in aftermarket many times for neighbors. they don't grease like I do.
buy from dealer. save heart ache.
lindstrom price does not include shipping. dealer quote is all you have to pay.
with Lindstrom 25$ shipping to Maine. ground 25$ was only option from Lindstrom. so thats 81.34$ for me. 25+56.34....

Thank you. Part ordered from Lindstrom. $25 for shipping to Ohio also but I should get it in 3 days. Dealer wanted $81 plus a priority charge of an additional $25. Always good to be on forums.

Correction. So Lindstrom sold me the part for their online price then proceeded to email me after my order confirmation that that part number changed and it's now $24 more. Pretty crappy that they sold me something and then wanted more money for it once they marketed it at another price and even confirmed my order.

3606801M91 seems to be an obsolete part #, price would have reflected last time it was added to an inventory system. It has been superseded by part #7074311M91. Technically a different part, different price.

You're not buying multi thousand dollar parts. Go to the dealer.
You know the quality, the fit. No fiddling around or compromising.
Like the old man used to say, sometimes when you're cheap it costs you twice, once to learn, second time to do it right.

I guess it depends on your dealer.
If I went to my dealer for a part like the mower deck idler pulley I guarantee they would not have one in stock. They would have to order it. It would take a week or maybe weeks to come in. I would need to call them several times a week to see if it was in. They would probably mark it up even more for the special order and shipping.
Or I could order one online hand have it in 3 days without any hassle.
Don't get me wrong, my dealer is great when it comes to service. They will come out and work on my tractor, they will haul my tractor for little or no cost because I'm less than 10 miles away. But when it comes to parts they keep almost nothing in stock.

That is the basic situation I am in here. Dealer did not have one in stock, would have cost $25 to make it a priority and I still would have had to drive the hour one way to them.
I am just amazed at the price for an idler pulley. Yes, this is not your run of the mill lawn mower, but my deck is not of any higher quality than something like a high end zero turn. You can buy Idler pulleys for exmarks and dixie choppers for 1/2 the price.

Finished priming and painting my no weld grill/brush guard. Sprayed painted it with grey primer and then grey Massey Ferguson spray paint. Made this out of 1/2" threaded rods and scrap chain link fence pipes. I got the grill emblem off of Ebay.

PJRAM, looks great. I am currently starting a similar project but It will be welded. Nice to see how someone else did it for ideas.

Nice one PJ, love it! I see how it tilts forward too, with the 2 retaining pins holding it in place, smart design.

used to use jacks a lot, prob 2500-3500$ a year for years. did lot of small engine repairs.
about 8 years ago they went downhill and often would charge you w/o shipping anything or would ship broken/incorrect parts.
many complaints at better business bureau

I bought something or other from them, don't remember what. Oils/filters for the Massey I mostly bought from Roudebush.
