Idler pulley worn out
thomas from muldraugh, Kentucky
- Difficulty Level:
- A Bit Difficult
- Total Repair Time:
- Less than 15 mins
- Tools:
- Socket set, Wrench set
- Parts Used:
- 756-04224
I got the nut off and to save me the trouble the next time, I drilled a pilot hole from underneath where the bolt goes through then cut a 1\" hole in the chassis on top to get to the nut. I replaced the pulley and put a hole plug in the 1\" hole I drilled. After that, no problem and the pulley works like a charm.
