Sears Suburban Scissor Deck Install 42 or 48 inch deck

Sears Suburban Scissor Deck Install. I am installing a 42 inch scissor mower deck on my 1971 Sears Suburban SS14 , But most Sears Suburban's will be the same.. You will need some brackets bolted to the frame of your Sears Suburban garden tractor to attach the mower deck to . This is a scissor deck style mower deck for a Sears Suburban garden tractor . You will need a mule drive also for your sears suburban garden tractor . These garden tractors do mow grass very well. garden tractor repair . wtbm123

Similar to my Wheel Horse, once you do this a few times, you can get these things on and off pretty quick. You're right on the belt tension, too tight you'll wear the engine bearings. Good video.

[@wtbm123]

Yes , to tight is hard on bearings . Thanks for commenting

Would you happen to know the size of the tension spring that runs the blades on the deck 42”or48” deck? And part number.

[@wtbm123]

sears part number , 9503H . I do not remember the length . If you look up this part number and verify it is the length you need . I think i used Mtd 732-0814

[@wtbm123]

Extension Spring .56 Dia x 5.52 L

[@roadboogalabuilds5318]

Would you happen to know the part number for the belt that runs from the motor to the deck?

[@wtbm123]

Depends on the size of deck and mull drive pulleys . 42 inch deck is usually 5/8 x 100 , many use a 55/8 x 101 as there is enough adjustment . 48 inch deck is 5/8 x 103 . Now if you get to the yellow tractors or customs that will be different also. Use a Kevlar belt . 42 inch deck , mower blades are 14 5/8 long , 48 inch deck is 16 5/8 long blades .

[@roadboogalabuilds5318]

@@wtbm123 right on thx for the help 👍🏻

[@VtPapa]

Does anyone know the size and part number for the 48” deck spring that runs the belt for the deck mower blades under the cover tension spring ?

[@smithjimmy8605]

I have the same setup. What is the length of the belt?

[@wtbm123]

5/8 x 100 inch on this one , but 101 long will work . 42 inch deck . my 48 inch deck needs 103 inch

[@matthewdillman3438]

What size belt is that

[@wtbm123]

Mine takes a 5/8 x 100 for crank shaft to 42 inch mower deck . 101 x 5/8 works well also . For my 48 inch deck it is a 5/8 x 103 inch belt . Under the cover , 42 inch deck takes a 1/2 x 87 and 48 inch deck 1/2 x 92

[@mcgigglesburning1]

Does anyone know what size belt that is?

[@wtbm123]

If you are talking mule drive belt it can vary depending on tractor , mule pulley diameter and deck size . But this one with a 42 inch deck is 100 x 5/8 and many use a 101 x 5/8 there . If i put the 48 inch deck on this tractor then it takes a 103 x 5/8 belt . Kevlar belts work better than rubber ones . Hope that helps.

[@mcgigglesburning1]

Thank you 👍 have a blessed day

[@buzzsah]

The tractor is a work horse, not sure about the deck.

[@wtbm123]

They hold up pretty well . Thanks for stopping by
