Best video on CZcams for this. Saved me a ton of time trying to figure this out myself. Thanks man. I appreciate your hard work.
That was by far the best video for how to change the traction belt.
Thank you for the kind words and I'm glad it was helpful :)
Can I get a model number of the belt itself?
No music, professional, descriptive. Why can't more people on youtube be like you? Thank you!
I'm glad you liked and thank you for watching!
I can’t express my gratitude adequately with a CZcams comment. Your video was direct, comprehensive, and incredibly easy to follow. I replaced the drive belt on my D140 yesterday using your instructions. You weren’t exaggerating about the rear bolt…it will fill up a sweat jar.
I'm glad you were able to get the job done. Take the $ from the jar and treat yourself to a nice dinner. You deserve it!! Please give this video a thumbs up, subscribe and tell your friends about my channel to help it grow. It would be greatly appreciated! Thank you for the kind comment :)
Dude, you are out here killing it with one hand while some of us can barely do this with two! HATS OFF TO YOU.
Thanks. I was born with the one hand and as my logo says “if I can do it, you can too”.
FINALLY !!! I am so happy I found this video. Needed to replace the transmission belt on LA115 and I had all the rest figured out (but you gave additional good tips on hard to get off parts) by other videos I watched. EXCEPT how to deal with that pesky little stay spindle next to the transmission pulley. It looked to me like I had to reach back there and slowly extricate it from the transmission and it was going to be a real PITA so I thought "Naw, can't be." But nobody else's video showed that little part because they were for other models that did not have it. Even my technical repair manual for my LA115 does not show this. It says just lift the belt up over the pully and I'm like "Yeah, Right! How the heck do I do that?" You showed me it was exactly what it looked like and I needed to just suck it up, be patient, and get it done. So I did. Thank you very much and great video.
I’m happy you found the my video and it all worked out!! Thank you for watching and commenting:)
I can not tell you how much I appreciate this video. Having never done this before, this was perfection! So appreciate you man!
Hi Joe, I’m glad this video was helpful and thank you for your kind comment. Please give this video a like and tell your friends about my channel to help it grow. It would be greatly appreciated:)
Simply amazes me when they engineer these things and don't keep the consumer in mind to replace a belt. I won't even mention what the local JD shop charges to replace this belt. I'm 80 and have always done my own work. Starting at working on farm tractors, trucks and cars at a early age. Getting harder to do but again folks work smarter not harder. Thanks for the very informative video.
I hope I am able to work like you when I am 80!! Thanks for watching and I'm glad it was helpful.
I'm in my eighties also and have when possible do my own repairs. What has always been my pet peeve is paying for repair work and not having the work done properly yet the bill is always to the high side. I have been cutting lawns for 75 years and experienced some workmanship that has left a bad taste in my mouth. I run a lawn service and do all the work myself. I did two big lawns today complete. I live in NE Wisconsin and being fall the leaves add double to the lawn cutting/collecting chore.
This a first-rate instructional video. When I first watched it late last summer, I felt overwhelmed and decided against it (the belt wasn't so bad after all ...). After working underneath and getting a feel for the machine, and then watching again, I feel more confident that I can do it! Update: This afternoon I successfully changed my transmission drive belt. The old one had dozens of cracks in it, so it was just in time.
I’m glad to hear. I hope it all worked out for you :)
Excellent video!! The dealership wanted $300 for the labor to do this job. At $125/hr, that's 2.4 hours, which is pretty much what it took me to do it myself thanks to this video. THANKS!! Perhaps the best idea in the video is lifting the machine by the nose to access the parts. Trying to remove and replace that belt retainer post in the transmission would have been horrendous on my belly with the machine up on jack stands! Thanks again and God bless you, sir!
Incredibly helpful, for the mid level DIY'er, using ramps, the back bolt by the transmission was easier to access from reaching behind the transmission, it was still a bear, but this video made it so much easier. Thank You !!!
Thank you. I’m glad it was helpful :)
Very good instruction video. I removed the cup holder and had a more direct view of the belt retaining bolt. Made it easier to view and remove and reinstall. Thank you for a great video.
Thank you for watching, the kind comment and sharing a very good tip!!
Friend, this is one of the best "how to" videos on all of CZcams. Thank you for this incredibly well put together video.
Wow, thanks! I’m glad it was helpful.
i appreciate how fast and to the point this entire video is. too many youtubers out there would have turned this into an hr long ordeal.
Thanks for kind comment :) I’m glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much for making this video. Saved me a ton of time and actually gave me the confidence to do the repair. It took me about 1 1/2 hours, and your video helped me along every step of the way. Incredibly helpful. Couldn't thank you enough.
Hi Gary, I'm glad you were able to get the job done and thank you for the kind comment. Please give this video a like, subscribe and tell your friends to help my channel grow. It would be greatly appreciated.
By far the most comprehensive, complete and well presented and edited video about replacing the belt. Thank you. An impact wrench seems mandatory, mine is being delivered this week.
Great step by step video. I've had my D140 for 7 years. I have not had to do a drive belt replacement yet. Only deck belt replacement. After watching this, I feel more confident in giving this a shot. Thanks!
Just as many others have said, “thank you” for a fantastic video. Clear, unobstructed camera angles and even CLEARER instructions. Very well done. Easy “like” and a new subscriber.
Thank you Matt!
Best video I’ve seen on YT for my 155c drive belt. The keeper peg in rear diff also has a 7/32 hex in the top which is faster than using a 15mm.
Thanks so much for the video! I broke the deck belt and used your video on that problem to replace it, then the next time I mowed the drive belt popped off. Here I am again finding the correct way to install the new belt - exactly what I needed, AGAIN!!!
Glad to hear your making the repairs yourself! Thank you for watching and the kind comment.
As others have noticed. This is the best of time saver videos to help us DIY get it done without too much swearing. Appreciate. Great job. I'll have four hands to do this belt job and hope to do it in one day, that took your skilled one hand a couple of hours. Amazing.
Wow, now that’s a man! Thank God for men like you! I’m not much of a mechanic but you made that look easy. I’m broken down on the acreage just before winter, should take me at least three days. Thanks for your expertise, appreciate it, like all the other men. Shalom

My almost 88-year-old dad and I just installed this belt. I did not know what I was getting myself into but I didn’t want him to trip or fall or injure himself so I thought I would assist him.I am his first born daughter I learned a lot thank you so much for your video. I could not have done this without this video and I didn’t want him to have to do it alone! Again love your video!!!!
I'm glad you were able to get the job done with your dad and my video! Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Please give this video a like and share my channel to help it grow. It would be greatly appreciated.
@@JohnsonsSmallEngines Can you tell me the size nut that goes on the steering shaft? Mine is missing
Fantastic video. Your ability to show the dos and don'ts and address them in layman's terms allows the process to go much smoother. Thank you so much. If you have a video on installing a snowblower on an L130 would appreciate it.
I don’t install snow throwers on machines in this area and normally it is a dealer project. Thank you for the kind words!!! Much appreciated.
My D155 just abruptly stopped moving. No forward, no reverse. This video helped a ton! Some explain their way through the process, your visuals were incredibly helpful. Thank you!
TY so much for making this video. As a woman on a learning curve of riding lawn mower repairs, I was able to do this job because your video is through! I love how you get right to the job at hand and not side tracked on BS conversation or worse...
I’m glad to hear it went good! Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Please give this video a like and share the channel with your friends to help it grow. It would be greatly appreciated!
Great instructional! My dad was trying to change that belt and he did everything except remove the bolt underneath. Now he knows how to do it. thank you!
I used this video several years ago to change my belt and now I need to do it again, so I am back for a refresher course. Again, excellent video. I'll be heading out to the garage right after this.
Thank you for sharing and the kind comment. I hope all goes well, again!
Thank you so very much for this video. It inspired me to do the job and now I'm super proud of myself.
13 year old drive belt on a D160 successfully changed and I used the opportunity to put a JD original new pinion gear instead of a cheap one from Amazon.
Hopefully the machine will last a few more years now.
I'm glad it was helpful. Check out this video for front wheel bearing upgrade and I will be making a video on cheap power steering in the future. czcams.com/video/Cd15I0mWcQM/video.html.
THANKS! Using your instructions, I was able to install a new belt without using a jack. The only thing I did differently was remove the transmission belt guide by reaching from behind the tractor. When all four wheels are on the ground, that's the best way to access it.
5 years later thank you very very much!
I’m glad it was helpful!
Three years later and I have to say thanks for the info. This was awesome
Your very welcome. Thank you for watching and the kind comment:)
The neighbor's mower would not move and the belt smelled like it was burning. I got the deck off and check the belt it was still on both ends/pulleys. The belt was worn, but still useable. There was so much grass clippings under there that once I cleaned it out. It actually worked. Your video helped me, so thanks.
I’m glad you got in there to fix it and now it’s running correctly!! Thank you for the kind comment
Awesome video. Had a belt slip the pulley directly on top of the transmission. I NEVER would have been able to get it back on without this video. That belt guide took a bit of time and patience to get off. But once I did, I was able to get the belt back on pulley. Thanks so much.
Hi William, I’m glad you found this video and got the job done!! Please give this video a thumbs up, subscribe and tell your friends to help my channel grow. It would be greatly appreciated:)
Also worked for my LA135, except no clutch. You showed how to remove the large and small pully under the engine, and the belt guard over the transmission, which I didn't find on other videos. Made the job super easy. Thank you so much!!!
Glad it was helpful to you! Thank you for watching
A job I will need to do this spring (2024), as I noticed the drive belt was in poor shape as I put my "Jonny" to bed for the winter. An excellent video! You saved me a trip to the dealer! Thank you - very much!
I’m glad it will be helpful in the spring. Just make sure you get the job started way before the grass is growing, just in case you will need to order and parts other than the belt! Thank you for watching and the kind comment. Please give this video a like subscribe if you haven’t already, and share my channel to help it grow! It would be greatly appreciated:)
Thank you for this video! Armed with step-by-step notes from your instructions, my father-in-law and I were able to replace the belt quickly. Thanks again.
Definitely the best video on CZcams on how to change a JD drive belt. Thanks for the upload.
Amazing vid. Worked exactly as he demonstrated. My only deviation was to clean out the allen head on top of the rear belt retainer pin and used an allen key to get it started back in. I just couldn’t get it to line back up with my hands.
This may be the best how- to video that I have seen on any subject. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
It's amazing that you can do this work with only one hand. Most people would have trouble with two hands. Nice work my man.
Thank you! It was what I was born with so I learned how to adapt as I knew no other. I’m just glad it wasn’t an accident. I think that would have been harder to cope as so many have. You must always have positive thinking!!
Great video , I change these all the time and I never took the clutch bracket off, I will from now on. Also I'll mark the gear placement. One thing I always use is my air hammer against the bolt halfway out to remove the engine pulley or clutch if seized , same goes for the pulleys. Pull on the pulley while hitting the bolt with the air hammer and they just pop right off. Keep the riding mower content comming.
Fantastic video! I'm 82 years old and I think I can do this if I can lift the front as you did in this video. you are and excellent instructor and the video shots were perfect! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and posting this video!! I will be a new Subscriber!!
I’m glad this was helpful! Thank you for supporting my channel and the kind comment. Tell all your friends to help my channel grow. It would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You! So much for taking the time to record this video. I just replaced my belt after changing the transaxle oil. I spent over an hour trying to replace the clutch. I finally put a board over my small jack to hold it just below the spindle until I could manipulate it to the correct position. I also replaced the plastic pulleys. This video is one of the best I've viewed!
Glad it helped and thank you for watching!
THANK YOU! This was the most thorough video ever on changing JD drive belts. Gonna watch it a couple more times and then head out to the shop and start wrenching on my LA175.
Hi JW, I'm glad it was helpful, please give this video a thumbs up, subscribe and tell your friends to help my channel grow! It would be greatly appreciated :)
The best video on how to!! No wasted yak yak and to the point. Definitely my favorite video!! Thanks, Son.
I’m glad this was helpful and thank you for the kind comment.
My son was born with one hand just like you. Nothing slows him down. Thanks for the instructions.
Hi Wes, glad to hear!! He must be just like me as far as his thought process!! I try 110% to make sure I can do anything if I put my mind to it! Thanks for sharing. Glad you liked the video.
Thanks so much. My JD dealer wanted 1.5 hrs labor and $50 for the part. Bought the belt at a big box store for $22 and saved enough in labor to pay for a MoJack lift for the next times I need it. Runs perfectly again. Like all the other commenters not only is this a very well done video, I also find it amazing that you do so much with just one hand. I did find the long bolt through the clutch impossible with hand tools. I have a pretty long breaker-bar that wouldn't budge it. My cordless impact ratchet broke it free in seconds. Thanks! Please keep up the vids.
Thank you for the kind words. I was born with the one hand (it wasn’t a work accident). I have lost my good camera person but will try and get more videos when I can!
Now I realized why my clutch was loose - previous owner didn't put the bracket through the opening in the clutch - thanks for the posting - Great Job !
I’m glad you figured it out! Thank you for watching and the kind comment.
The way you made this look so easy gave me the confidence to do it myself. I fixed it with your help!
I’m glad it all worked out! Congratulations! and you saved some $$
This was the perfect how-to video. Nailed it.
Thank you! I'm glad it was helpful and thank you for the kind comment.
Thanks so much for this video. It made the job very smooth. Thanks especially for the tip to have patience with removing the bolt on top of the transmission.
Im glad it was helpful and you were able to get the job done. Please give this video a like and share my channel to help it grow! It would be greatly appreciated!
Great video I’m hanging the chain fall from the rafters now, that’s the way to go.
The last piece that you did so easily kicked my ass for an hour
Daniel B - And he did it with one hand! 😜
@@stevee7774 can't even imagine.
Trying to get that in there felt like a one and a million shot with my mits for hands and sausage fingers
This video was very helpful helping me to reconnect the transmission drive belt after I ran over a stick that dislodged the belt at the rear of my D-140. My belt was still in good shape and reinstalling was a challenge until I saw this video that showed me the part of the mower that was preventing me from reconnecting the transmission belt around the rear of the mower.
Agree this is the best post online for the job! I have the 175 hydro LT and am stuck. None of the videos I've seen show the sector shaft forward of the steering which prevents me from getting the belt around it to the engine pulleys. I've not been able to get the cotter pin off the shaft and can't work it off from the steering support below.
Your video was great for removing and replacing the steering.
I found a, maybe, easier way to get the belt over the transmission pulley. Since my belt broke, I didn't have to remove the old one. I was able to snake the belt back between the fan and right side of tractor. Leaving a lot of slack rearward, I was able to slip it over the top of the fan by depressing each fan blade individually and turning the fan while slipping the belt on top of fan and onto the pulley.
Along with the other 500 comments, amazing video. Best one. Quick note on the bar near the rear that's a pistol to remove. It's really easy to do when you remove the fan. With the right tool, that clip is easy to remove. So worth the investment takes seconds on that bar once the fan is removed. Allen wrench on top of that post makes it easy.
Very useful video, no BS or waste of time, straight to the point. Thank you !
Super detailed video. Thank you for taking the time to show every step in detail. I have an L130 and would have to assume the process is very similar. You have given me the confidence to give it a try. Thank you!
As many have said, excellent instructions. I was doing work on the steering "gears" anyway, and saw this belt had a chunk out of it. i decided to replace it while waiting on the parts. The rear trans-mounted belt guide took longer to put in than the whole rest of the job. But I was forewarned because of this video. THANKS VERY MUCH!!!
I’m glad this video was helpful! Thank you for watching. Please give this video a thumbs up, subscribe and tell your friends to help my channel grow. It would be greatly appreciated:)
REALLY GOOD INSTALLATION EXPLANATION. THANK YOU.
The guide pin In the transmission was a bear to get out. I looked it over after i got it out and noticed it was an allen head on the other end from the threads. I took out the drink holder out and put my hand through there with a 6mm/7/32 allen socket with a one inch ext. and put it between the fan blades the a 3/8 ratchet and went in really easy. Next time I do one I will take it out the same way and not fight it. Just thought this might help.
Good looking out and thanks for posting the info. I will be trying that next time! TY
Thank you! This is the best video!
I didn't need to replace my belt, it had popped off the rear pulley. Knowing what the retainer bolt looked like and that it was a 15mm made the difference between a quick fix and drudgery.
Thank you for the kind words Bill, I'm glad you had a simple fix and the video was helpful.
A most excellent video. I have the E160, but thanks to your clear instructions and video imagery, I am very confident I can get the job done. The hardest part now will be how to get the nose that high w/o a chain hoist!
Im glad the video will help you. Thanks for the kind comment. Just be careful, maybe car ramps will help get the front up.
The best on CZcams for replacing the transmission belt and related pulleys. Thx a lot!!!
Thank you! I’m glad it was helpful :)
I have to change the transmission drive belt on my brother’s JD 160,and this video is the best one I’ve seen….I’ve watched your videos for several years and this is the first time I’ve commented on one. I have to say that you are very talented at not only the repairs but the videos are excellent as well.Thanks for sharing them with us.Bill H
Hi Bill, thank you for watching my videos and for the very kind comment!
Hey thanks for the video, I was able to replace the transmission belt on the D160. I actually used this repair as an excuse to buy a new tool,lol.A Ryobi 1/2 cordless impact wrench,works great.Anyway the worst part was getting that rear pulley guard thing out….and back in…thanks again…My next project is getting my old LA120 running again…I got a new S170 last year
Forgot to mention,one of the belt pulleys was worn out at the top lip,so I went ahead and replaced both,the flat and the V …still cheaper than having to pay the Dealer..
Back in the day I always used air guns. When they came out with the rechargeable battery powered impacts and all hand held in general. GAME CHANGER!!! I only need compressed air to clean with. I even went to a battery powered air pump for the tractor tires. It does take a little longer but as I have aged, I now how so much more patience :) LOL!! I'm glad to hear all went good! Subscribe, give this video a thumbs up and share the channel to help it grow. It would be greatly appreciated!
First of all, great video! Couldn’t have done it the job without it. I was cruising till I got to 15mm bolt that keeps the belt on the transmission pulley. I’ve bad hand tremors and this was almost impossible but I finally got it out. When I did, I noticed the top of that bolt has a slot for a hex key. Not sure if anyone else mentioned this. It really helped me so I wanted to pass it on.
Hi Joe, thank you. Yes many have told me about it but I’m not good with editing videos so I’m not sure how to incorporate it into the video or when the next transmission belt job comes in I’ll do it then! I’m glad it was helpful and thanks for watching:)
Great video and very much appreciated.
Unfortunately some models, like my D140, where the fan is above the pulley, have a belt guide, shaped like a bolt, that must be removed to install the belt.
Gotta love Joe Smith's discovery -
"I noticed the top of that bolt had a slot for a hex key"
A small DeWalt electric screwdriver and the correct hex bit (6mm), and it was out, and back in, quick.
Thank you Brad for the excellent video. It was easy to follow, informative, and thorough. I was able to complete the drive belt change from your instructions. Kudos to the photographer as well.
I'm glad to hear you were able to complete the transmission belt installation. Thank you for sharing, watching and the kind comment!
Great instructional video. Clear, concise and to the point. I’ve got to do this job & your presentation has just given me the confidence to do so. Thank you!!
I'm glad to help, thank you for the kind words.
thx, I did mine last year, and used your video. Anyone doing this video is excellent and with it you can do.
Impact for the dropping the PTO clutch is a must. Don't have one, borrow one!
That back guide bolt in back on trans def. is a pain, but other than that not bad of a job. Mine slipped off at @200 hours , but noticed split in belt so if you have to pull your deck anywhere around 200 hours and haven't replaced, go ahead and do is my advice. After I took deck off I titled my mower on two tires and made sure it was secure and was able to get to everything.
Thanks Chris!
Great job, got the same mower and the drive belt went bad yrs ago, purchased a new one from Lowe's NOT THE SAME, cheap... wife loves the old mower, after watching this I'm going to get it going again. Thanks
I hope all goes well! Let me know how you make out!
Good job, you sure made that look easy. The camera guy done a great job.
I’m glad it was helpful, thanks for watching and commenting! I take pride in my work and videos to help all of you to get the job done as correctly as I can. Please subscribe and tell your friends to help my channel grow. It would be greatly appreciated.
Great video on the belt change,I am a small tech myself,and you were spot on,new follower now
Thanks, 190C belt worn out, will be doing this this weekend, Wow you did a fine job and explained all very well.
This was a very helpful video as I had to replace my D160 belt & was unsure how to remove it. Well done. Thank you.
There are a lot of videos on how to do this and yours is by far the best. Great job.
Thank you! My day just got brighter:) I’m glad it was helpful and thank you for the kind comment.
This was an awesome vid. Def not an easy task but you make it look pretty easy. Everything was explained super clear. Thanks so much man!
Great video and very much appreciated.

Thank you for taking the time to create and post a step by step. I'm confident you just saved me a ton of time! Thank you.
Great work man, it's hard enough to do that with 2 hands let alone one, my hats off to you buddy, I subbed, keep up the good work, you have a fan.
I enjoy your video. I learn a lot, nice and concise. I have one suggestion easier to take off the belt guide bolt. I found accidently that there is a place you can access the guide bolt from the back right behind the cover with hitching plate. You can see it right there Hope this will help somebody
Thank you SOOOOOOO MUCH for sharing this video & your experienced advice. I just hoisted my D160 to do this & just sat there stunned wondering how on earth. I thought there had to be an easier way than what i was seeing (unbolt the engine & rear axle & then???).
I’m glad it was helpful and thanks for watching :)
I have done this one time before - I wish, I would have seen this video before I did it - SUPER GOOD VIDEO!!
Thank you for this, it really helped out. You did it much faster than I could with twice the hands!
This is the best video of how to change the drive belt on a john deere D140. I know, because I had to do it myself. Thank you.
You just saved me hundreds of dollars taking my mower in. Thank you!

Great work on the video! One of the best done explanations of anything I've seen anywhere.
Brad, great video as always. I agree with you about the wires that attach to the PTO clutch. They just hang loose. I zip-tied mine up to the frame.
Thanks Jim! Thank you for watching and the kind comment.
The absolute best video on replacing the drive belt! Thanks!
Very well done, sir. One thing I discovered just the other day after watching your video was that there is an Allen fitting on top of the shaft that holds the belt at the top of the transmission. So when I took it off to get the belt on I found the Allen fitting. When I put it back on it was so much easier to just put a stubby Allen wrench in to screw it back down. The bolt is called a 'belt keeper stud' on the John Deere website. Hope this helps.
Yep, thanks, many have commented, I hope this video helped you out! Thanks for watching;)
Great videos. I don't have this exact model of tractor, but based on your videos I was able to get mine done without too much trouble. Thank you for what you do.
I’m glad it all worked out! Thank you for watching, and the kind comment. Please give this video a thumbs up and share my channel with your friends to help it grow. It would be greatly appreciated.
glad to learn they are finally lubing engine shaft , sad to learn belt guides around them are no longer removable .
Incredible all inclusive video, meaning no steps were skipped or not shown. True (live) time to replace let's you have an idea of what you're up against. I'm disabled too, trying to figure out if I can finish this in a reasonable time. It's nice to see a can do attitude even though you have a disability. Thanks for a great video.
Thank you for the kind words Matt. I’m glad the video was helpful :)
One of the best videos I have seen. Thanks so much.
This is the best lawn mower "how to" video on youtube. It's not an easy job, but you sure make me feel like I can do it. Excellent job! Thank you so much! This isn't the same mower I have, but I just found your other video on the D130 Ido have. They are a bit different. Thanks again!
Thanks for watching👍
Excellent video-clearly explains each step, shows exactly what and where to place the belt as he describes the different steps. Thank you for the concise explanation!
I’m glad you liked it and I’m glad it was helpful :)
Thank you very much. This tutorial explained everything that I needed to know before tackling this job. Very much appreciated.
Best video of all transmission drive belt replacements. Great job.
Hmm ... Just did my older John Deere (Scotts, 16 years old) and I did not need to take off the clutch. Just loosened the front pulley belt guide and slipped the belt on. Also ... same around the trans pulley... No guide was there, just a bracket that was easy to flex open a little and let the the new belt slide around the pulley. Makes it a little easier on the older J.D. models. Everything else was the same though. JD (Scotts/Sabre/Murrey) have been making this design lawn tractor for 20+ years. Good tractors at the right price. Local lawn mower repair shop quoted me $180 to replace my drive belt.. cost me just $19. Nice video!
Best video I have seen for drive belt removal for this John Deere Mower! Thanks very much!
