- In this video I show you how to replace a John Deere mowing deck belt. I also show you how to remove and reinstall the mowing deck.
The part number for the belt I used in the video is GX21833. I have seen that the part number GX20571 is listed as the same. Here is a link to the belt I bought.

Thanks man. My belt came off and I couldn’t figure it out to save my life. This is just what I needed.
I expect this mower will last several seasons with decent care. th-cam.com/users/postUgkx1VWTrayKBdCKAjzAcZ_Eg4dhHTae3LkN also recommend Also, I ran across the problem with it not starting the 2nd time I used it. There is a safety switch which is pushed in by the chute or mulching piece being attached to the deck. I took the cover off and it wouldn't start. Put it back on, no problem. It takes only a minute with 2 easily accessible wingnuts and no tools. This mower starts up first crank each time and it is a joy to use. It also mows in reverse by putting the key to the reverse area after starting and pushing in the triangular button. It will stay in reverse mode until you turn it off. All in all, for my homeowner needs, I really like this mower-and at 70 bucks a cut here in Miami, it's already more than 1/3 paid for itself in a month.
Please never take this video down you’ve saved my butt twice. I’ll keep coming back to this video for the rest of my life every time I need to mess with my deck.
Thanks for the comment! This video won't go anywhere. Glad I could help you.
Dude, your video was the only video that helped me. My father has a Craftsman 917 series tractor mower and I swear someone put a John Deer deck on it because I was looking through videos to figure out the deck belt routing and I saw the thumbnail for your video. Sure enough it's the same deck. Thank God for your video
This video is right up my alley. Simple yet effective. My belt snapped. I tested all the spindles and pulleys and noticed the 2x 3 5/8 pulleys on my LA145 were not free spinners like the rest of the deck. Thankfully Amazon can get me them in 2 days. Everywhere else was 4-5 days (weekend included). I waited an extra day to fix but I don't think it's wise to put a new belt on a deck if there's a reasonable chance to snap the belt again with tight pulleys.
After watching this vid, it took me less than 45mins to remove the deck, replace the belt, and put the deck back on. The tips made all the difference and I thank you for that.
Aww man God Bless you. So many small tips and tricks probably would have spent 4 more hours wrestling with the deck had I not watched it. Thank you so much. I'm going to watch all your videos now
Thanks! I try and you're welcome!
I was going to search for a belt diagram, but took a screen shot during your video instead, thanks. Next time I change out the blades I will definitely just drop the deck, so easy now that I've done it once!
Thanks your mower is just like my 155c. . Bought a new deck, as I have hit too many trees. Thanks for all your videos on this model.
S*** man!! That tip about moving the deck forward did it for me. Thank you. I had an inkling but I was trying to be lazy and not remove the 4 pins and drop it...but we all know what laziness can bring. Good luck!
Great tip
Great tip
Thank very much now iam still a john deere man .thank again
Now THIS is how you do a damn tutorial video! Thank you!
I had a further problem while installing a new belt. The replacement was so stiff that I couldn't get it to stay around the pulleys. After reinstalling the 4-screw cover and muscling the deck back into place, the new belt came off the far left pulley. I tried removing the cover to see if I could get it to loop back, but no dice. I had to take the whole thing back apart again, only this time I left the covers off and reinstalled them after the deck was mounted again and the belt was properly seated.
Leave it in the sun!
I found alot of problems on mine my friend who i do alot of work for gave me and he said it was in the shop and that the engine was rebuilt but I've checked and part of the engine was i don't see why reuse old hard gas lines on one that was rebuilt and a dirty carburetor and the shop used wrong gasket maker on the valve cover shop kept i guess the original coil on it its a 1999 coil still good but its not new the flywheel is a 2005 so the shop put that on the cylinder is new the valves are new
But the shop couldn't figure out why it wouldn't start up and it was just a few safety wires needing twisted together some white ones just cut off
And the wire that kept them from starting it up was the white wire going to a yellow button and one to the top of the coil. It was grounding it out as they were trying to start it up probably won't need half the relays they've got on that Lt155 after disconnecting all the safety buttons that causes problems
thanks James made my life easy
@7:34 How do you get space between the guard and the pulley to slip the belt through? I have the 54" deck, and the pulleys don't move away from the guards. If they are lose like that, they won't protect your belt from slipping and unspooling. I've had to remove the pulley and pull it up to put the belt on. Also, the move the deck forward trick helps if you removed the deck; but the tensioner pulley can be used if the deck is on, instead. With a wrench, move it forward, and the tension is reduced enough to slip it on the drive pulley. Again, I have the 54", so these may be differences between it and the 48" deck.
Great video thank you! 🙏🏼
I have John Deere S160 and I don't need to take the deck out. You can put the new belt while the deck is still in place. Good video though!!
Thanks for posting this! The tips helped!!!
actually some nice close-up photography work
Thanks! I try to make it easy to see what needs to be done.

Yes uyu
Thanks ! Very informative video! 👍👍👍
Ty so much for this.
Now to try it out.
I am a housewife and house cleaner lol you did a awesome video especially all the tips and tricks it would have taken me forever thanks so much
I have an E140 and the deck belt goes on the same way. I had to bend those tabs on a couple pulleys because I took off the nut and the pulley still wouldn't lift off. I paid $40 for my official JD E140 belt. They screw ya for John Deere parts. Also, I couldn't stretch my belt around my pto pulley so I disconnected the 5 hanging pins and put the belt on the pulley first and then hung the deck again.
So helpful! Thanks!
i have a la130 48 inch deck keeps throwing or breaking belts i see the idler pulley isnt exactly even wonder if this is the problem or do i need to go to a oem john deere belt....i have a d140 same deck and the idler on it seems a little uneven too but the belt does good on it....not sure if the idler is bent or just made that way
Great video!
This thing is awesome!!!
Excellent job!
Thanks for the help
Great video instruction. Did you take the pulleys off when you put the new belt on?
I did not take off any pullies. Everything I did I showed in the video. If you are not sure how to do this I would suggest watching it again to make sure you are comfortable. If you still have questions after watching it again let me know. Good luck and thank you!
Thank you for your help
Great Video Thanks
You belt was off the main drive pulley when you did up the front deck bar...😁
Could you show me a belt guide for jd L110,they sent one to big mine is silver,small.deck will not pull up with big one
I’m putting the belt on right but everytime I engage it it slips right off again?
Good men👍
what is the belt number im having trouble getting the correct belt number
Look in the description of the video. I also provided a link to purchase it on Amazon.
I still gotta go through all my wires and redo it to how i like it without the safety buttons and cut um out the mower shouldn't have that many relays and it doesn't need all those safety buttons im gonna take 3 relays off and wire 2 together as I've done to my older L110 John deere
thanks!!! great video! i have an D170, and your video helps me a lot! i am in Brasil, can i translate to portuguese? i tried to do a video.. but was not so good kkk
Thanks! Yes feel free to translate the video to Portuguese. I appreciate your help in doing that.
Drive belt
4:30
Thank you
seriously! at the end the belt wasn't even connected. LOL
I think i said this in the video but part of that footage was taken from another video i already did. I didn't think i needed to film that same part again. Just try to look past that part of the footage 😁
Did not put belt on completely, still off pully and not even tight.
The belt becomes tight after you refit the deck. If you put the deck back on first, then it is a little bit hard to get the belt around the forward pulley.
I notice the belt was not around the pulley when he put it back on front bar
@@jansaari1047 use a breaker bar and 14mm socket (I think ) to move belt forward to go around pto pulley if you forget to use his tip
He mentions, in on screen text, that the last part of the video was from an older video. That's why the belt is off the front pulley when he fits the front bar back on. He just wanted to show the viewers that the front bar has a washer behind the pin.
I actually didn't I need my belt replace it's just that I needed to get back on all the
What I meant to say was I actually I needed to get my belt back on the police
1 Q in
Nothing about the belt tensioner.
It's been a while since I made this video but if I remember correctly it is automatically done because it is spring tensioned. What did you want to know about it?
I bet you carnt show how to replace a deck belt to 2026R
Mf'ing commercials!!!!!!!!!!!
Tfs. This is the worse lawn mower my money has ever bought! Its a total piece of shit! I cant say how many times I had to replace the belt and or fix tires.
