WF Mule drive pulleys
 

I have a 129 that I am fixing up to be a general yard machine and garden worker. I just purchased a tiller for it and am wanting to rebuild the mule drive. I would like to replace the stamped steel pulleys with solid steel pulleys. Would anyone have any leads as to where I can get the solid pulleys? Part numbers?? NAPA, O'Reiley's, Oregon, Stens, Rotary, JD, etc, etc. Any input appreciated. Thank you.

+1 I need them too.

Mule drive pulleys are available at both these sponsors though they don't look like solid steel. Someone else will surely come along with a solid steel version...

These are nos, they are the correct pulleys for the tiller mule drive, IH 493164 R91.

Are they for sale?

I might have one used one,I called one place and it is $70 each wow.The good thing with these you remove the snap ring and replace the bearing when it wears out.

I am sure that mc master carr has something like it.let me know if you need measurements.

Not sure but I may have a couple in need of bearings, gotta dig through my stash of stuff that looked like it was to good to trash that I have no use for but I better save it cause I may need it someday. One of the reason our shops are too small. :biggrin2:

I will report back with my findings.:beerchug:

I am looking for a pair too. Anyone know a source?

I just rebuilt a pair of solid pulleys. The bearings were $3.57 each from usabearingsandbelts.com the part number is 6300-2RS. They are a metric bearing sealed on both sides, size 10x35x11mm. The brand of them is RB Tech, and the quality rating was better than a SKF bearing which was $30+. I have tilled with them a few hours so far and they seem to be working good. So if you can find a set with bad bearings you can go this route.
