Horse Newbie 6,865 #153 Posted December 17, 2023 I don’t see how sanding by hand would remove enough material to cause the pulley to wobble on the shaft… Where did you get the pulley ? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Horse Newbie 6,865 #156 Posted December 17, 2023 Did it fit snug on the shaft before you painted it ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Freightliner Guy 1,326 #157 Posted December 17, 2023 i never put it on the tractor till it was painted and with paint it would not go on after sanding the paint mostly off it went right on 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is this a cast pulley or a stamped steel pulley? Hammering on a steel pulley will bend'em Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Freightliner Guy 1,326 #166 Posted December 17, 2023 i took the screw out yeah and i only hammered it on the main part not the other part of the pulley and it may be casted cant remember and yeah i made sure it was all the way on the shaft Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
D_Mac 8,233 #167 Posted December 17, 2023 Yes I was going to ask if you tightened the set screw after you got the pulley into position. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wallfish 15,932 #168 Posted December 17, 2023 The set screw should tighten it to the shaft and the woodruff key should be in place as well. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
