wow where do people find the time to put the effort into stuff like that?
'89 Astro, 4.3L, TBI. Minor intake and exhaust mods. Rebuilt 700R4 trans (by me). Corvette servo, 0.5" boost valve, police grade 1-2 accumulator spring (shifts fast and solid). B&M stacked plate trans cooler. Bilstein shocks. Belltech sway bars front and back. New head unit, speakers and subwoofer. Needs paint and a new headliner.

LOL-hey Blazer-how's that mower of yours doing??.
Funny you should ask Gary...piece of crap Sears -Craftsman garbage. Told the wife I almost went out and bought a new tractor last week I was so mad....I hate that piece of junk!!!! It is a 15hp 6speed, but the center shifted keeps locking in gear. I have to jam it into another gear, then sometimes the shifter bar will bend so much I have to put a piece of rod over it and bend it back so I can get it to shift. I need to pull out the rear end and take apart and see if something is broke. It's like a synchronizer like in the older manuals has a broken teeth. I have another chasis too that is a few years older, it did the same thing!
I told the wife she could have a new fridge if I can get a new tractor....our fridge is 1 1/2 yrs old and I'm still using sears junk I pieced together!!!! I need this thing for the snow blower too

Blazer,
Take a close look at the drive belt guides and the ilder pulley that releases while pressing on the peddle.You got to have O.E.M. belt because AYP and Murrey belts are not to 1/2 sizes like auto belts.If you use those "green" belts bought at auto parts outlets,they won't work.That tranny pulley has to free wheel to go into gear.If you PM me the model and serial number off the tractor,I'll get ya a part number for the drive belt.
