    Lightweight is good and what did I use it for it’s a lawnmower th-cam.com/users/postUgkxTPN04aT-Qdjr_KS3ql7ng8wnU3wwsCqk also recommend Yes it is lightweight so hence not as robust as our old one. But if you take care it does the job really well.

    LOLOLOL Amazing video! And I did all the 'taking out of the screws' and then realized that my craftsman must be newer, there is now just a little door to pop off on top. So I put all the screws back in...thankfully I had them labeled! But I appreciate your video, because this is really such a simple repair.

    Perfect, thank you for the precise directions. I forgot to anchor the drive cable when installing the new cable!! You're video reminded me to do that! Although, I have a complaint about the plastic piece that broke causing me to have to replace the drive cable. It's the plastic nub that goes into the mower handle. I barely bumped the handle on a wooden playset, and it snapped! Seems pretty cheaply made, I would think a metal pin or bolt and nut would last longer. Just a thought.

      We’re glad to hear that the video helped you. We understand your concern about the plastic anchor for that drive cable that attaches it to the mower handle. Thank you for bringing that issue to our attention. We’ve forwarded your comment to our product engineer for action.

    These cables wear out faster then people think. So do the drive belts. If it starts slipping its time to hit the work bench....

    I have a cub cadet SC 300 hw mower which has the same configuration, but the cable seems too long, and is not engaging the drive. Any help?

    My 21" Craftsman self propelled walk behind mower is REAR WHEEL DRIVEN. I could not find any instructions for changing drive cable NOR drive belt on RWD mowers - only FWD ones. Help please.

      The part number for that drive cable is 946-04728A. Here's a link for that part: www.searspartsdirect.com/product/2w6xqqfu06-0071-247/id-946-04728a

      We'll need the model number of your mower to help you find the right drive cable. The model number is often on the back flap that covers the bagger discharge port on that type of mower. Let us know the model number and we'll help you find the part.

      @@C000DY Thanks for providing the model number but that's the model number for the engine. The parts for the mower are listed separately from the engine parts so we still need the model number of the mower to help you find the right part. Look for a model number sticker that isn't on the engine. The model number for the mower is often on the back of the mower deck or possibly on the handle.

    Is it possible to just replace the drive cable....i can't remove just the drive cable from the bracket....i can only remove the stop cable not the drive cable from the bracket

    • @searspartsdirect
      @searspartsdirect  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      The drive cable shown in this video includes the bracket, which is permanently attached to the cable. If you can’t remove the drive cable from the bracket on your mower, then the replacement drive cable may also include the bracket. Check the replacement drive cable for your model of mower and see if it includes the bracket. If you need more help, let us know the model number of your mower and we’ll try to assist you further.
