Message: <blockquote data-quote="chardway" data-source="post: 20923" data-attributes="member: 2263"><p>I took the v-belt drive system apart yesterday. There are 2 pulleys mounted on the engine shaft both of which are actuated by integral electric clutches. The outer clutch/pulley is the low speed driver and the inner clutch/pulley is the high speed driver. Both of my clutches are "bad". The inner low speed clutch is mechanically broken and the outer one has a bad bearing and also must not have been engaging since neither pulley was turning when the engine was running. The motor shaft and keyway are fine and I didn't find a sheared key. Called the local Bobcat dealer and they want $635 for the outer low speed clutch/pulley (PN 6558185) and $589 for the inner high speed clutch/pulley (PN 6555493). Ouch! Anybody know where I night find used parts? I might also just go back with a single low speed pulley that directly mounts to the shaft (with no clutch). I will lose high speed capability but it sure will be cheaper. Any advice or recommendations would be appreciated!</p></blockquote><p></p>
