Building a sickle bar mower drive plate for my 42 inch sickle bar mower.  New shaft, bearings, bolts and key ways.  The drive shaft is 12 inches long with 3/16 jetway all across the 3/4inchshaftThe wobble box on the 42 inch was filled with3 30 weight oil and is turning fine.  Greased up blade track and will put blade and blade nut back in tomorrow.   The 50 inch is done with maintenance also.  Drive pulley is cast iron and keyed.

First picture is of wobble box and subframe for my 42 inch sickle bare which is different from my 50 inch 7-1311 subframe.  Second picture shows the differences .

 

Also I do not have a #5590 pulley noted in the Wheel Horse partslists for 50 and 42 inch sickle bar mowers.  There appears to be no conclusive information on the size of the pulley.  Some say 2 1/2 inch some say 4 inches.  Looking at the drawing of the sickle parts  and assuming it is dream to some scale .  I think it must be four inches.
