I have a 520H. Are all the mule drives the same size?

No. The one for 60" deck is different.

   The 60" deck requires the special spring loaded mule drive to maintain belt tension.

 

    I do believe any regular mule drive would work on the 42 and 48" decks.

I know there’s a different one for the 60” but I’ve been running a 60” deck on my 416-H for years with no trouble. I’m not sure what the difference is and why it’s necessary?

Not sure why it's needed either Don.      What a great picture and buddy seat.     I have special memories of some amazing Springers.

The basic mule for some of the 37" side discharge 2-blade decks is also the same but use two V-pulleys and a 6-sided belt instead of the more common one flat idler and one V-idler with a 4-sided belt.
