tilengroutpro 0 #1 Posted August 3, 2013 I have the opportunity to buy a brand new 37" mower deck model 537-5102. Would it fit a WH Garden tractor 31-12KE01, 312-H, year 1990? Currently I got a 42" mower deck on the 312-H, ID # 65-42M607-0828-6174 and about to be junked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,493 #2 Posted August 4, 2013 Your model numbers are not correct. The 37" deck should have a model number like 05-37MS01, 05-37MS02, 05-37MS03, 05-37MS04, 05-37MS05, 05-37MS06 A5-37MS02 05-37SL01, 05-37SL02 05-37SC01, 05-37SC02, 05-37SC03, 78315 05-37SK01 65-42M607-0828-6174 looks like it should be a 1976 model 65-42MS01 if the 6174 is correct.

tilengroutpro 0 #3 Posted August 4, 2013 Garry. Looking closer on the paper the owner wrote on , I think it say's 05-37SL02 as you suggested. Do you think the mower would fit? Thanks a lot for your help. tilengroutpro. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dcrage 630 #4 Posted August 4, 2013 Yes. It will fit. There are 2 belt versions for these decks. You will need to find out if your "new" deck uses the normal V belt or the 6 sided version Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gwest_ca-(File Mod) 11,493 #5 Posted August 4, 2013 Believe the 37" deck requires the 6" front wheels for clearance on turns and the 1990 312's originally came with them. Garry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tilengroutpro 0 #6 Posted August 5, 2013 Thanks Dave and Garry, great help on this site. I'll get the mower this week coming, he's asking $ 50.00 for it, and I think it's a very good buy. tilengroutpro. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
