john deere 175

I have a John Deere 175 Hydro with a 38" deck. The belt that is on the deck keeps jumping off at the tensioner. Today, i finished putting new bearings in both blade spindles, the drive pulley, and idler/tensioner pulley (pulley and bearing were one unit). After assembling everything making...

I have a 175 loader on my 2155. I bent a rigid hydraulic line yesterday while moving some debris around, which resulted in a hole and a nasty leak. Item #13 seems to be obsolete. Does anyone know of an alternate PN to AW22254 (other than AW26073)? I might just have to have a line manufactured...

Hi, I have a John Deere 175 hydro that I bought same day at a garage sale for $100. It was a good deal. When ever I go up hill or make a turn, The differential makes a lot of racket. Why is it doing that? How can I fix it? Is it low on oil, if so what should I put in it? How do I change...

I have been looking around to get a good used rider for a few months now with the purchase of our first home. I finally happened across a JD 175 hydro that i paid a whopping $320 for. The thing runs and starts like a top, looks really good except.....NO HOOD! Apparently they are super fragile...

I removed the fender pan and had it sandblasted and painted. I The cushions under the pan were rotted and fell apart when removing them. Does anyone know where I can get replacements and where they go on the bottom of the pan ? I did salvage one pad for the fuel line.

My jd175 cranks over quite q while before it starts, does anyone have any idea what causes this ? Also I took the rear cover off to have it sand blasted and painted, I noticed a connection that looks like there should be a hose plugged on it and there is no hose or anything to plug on it. Am I...

I have a John Deere 175 with 38 inch deck, snow blower and bagger. It is in average condition with very little rust, new seat and new blades. What would be an average value be to sell it ? I believe it is a 1984.

Hi, I live in Indiana and am looking to replace my aging 175 hydro - 38 inch deck and rear bagger with something like the x304. I have a sloping 1 acre lot with probably some 15% grades. Also a number of large oak trees and some landscape beds. I also have a trac vac for the leaves in the fall...

My 175 Hydro is leaking oil at the end of the axle near where the rear wheels go on. Anyone know anything about fixing this?

Just purchased a used J/D 175 Hydro lawn mower. The brake pedal won't release after start up so I can't get full response from hydro drive forward or reverse. Any suggestions on cause and cure. This is my first rider mower, first J/D, first hydro so not familiar how whole system works.

Parking brake won't release on my j/d 175 hydro. Just bought it Friday, not very familiar with operations, first hydro operated machine I have used/ owned. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Was loading up a heavy piece of equipment on a trailer the other day using the loader and that job was done, before I even parked it and shut it off for the night, the tractor wouldn't idle properly. It would run normal at idle, then drop, almost stall out, pick back up. Repeat that cycle a few...

The 175 hydro govenor linkage is always moving when the engine is warmed up and the mower is not engaged causing the rpms to go up and down. Has anyone experienced and repaired this problem? Thanks for the help.

I just bought a used 175 Hydro For a whopping $100 of course no owners manual came with it and I have some questions on how to set/adjust the mower deck. I installed new belts ans noticed several adjustment points. The engine runs great. i put a new battery and freash gas and it cranked right...

I hope this is the correct forum for my question... Here it is: I was given an old John Deere hydro 175 riding lawn mower. I used it all last summer and it worked great. After sitting up (covered) for the winter it started right up and off I went until I flipped the PTO switch to engage the...

Hi, I found a John Deere Hydro 175 on CL for $350. It doesn't have the mower deck (don't need one anyway) but it does have the single stage 38" snow blower. Assuming everything works as it should, is this a decent price for this machine? Thanks. Matt.

Hey all, I've finally gotten around to trying to diagnose the problem with the 1987 John Deere 175 Hydro that I picked up last year. Video of testing here. I previously described the origin of the problem in this thread. Basically, the tractor doesn't go in reverse, and seems to gradually...

Anyone else aware that John Deere has been around 175 years? They've accomplished a lot in that time. They didn't start with tractors; they started with small equipment and plows. That's why green is the best! Just look at this timeline.

Please help if you can! I did a stupid thing. I was so pleased with how well my new (used) '87 JD 175 was running that I got carried away. While rolling backwards downhill, I shifted the hydrostatic transmission from reverse to forward too abruptly, I think. Here's the sequence of events...

I am looking for a muffler to fit a JD 175 Hydro Lawn Tractor with a Kawasaki 1 cylinder FC 420 V engine

Hey ya'll... Having some trouble with my JD 175. It has a new starter on it, its been working great for the past couple weeks. Today I tried to start it up and... nothing. Its not turning over at all. I don't get a click or a stutter or anything... the only "click" seems to be coming from...

It came off nice and easy today. I needed to sharpen the blades. Now I'm trying to get it back on. And I have been doing the same thing for about the past 4 hours. I just can't figure out the correct process in which you attach the different arms, the belt gets so tight I can't move the deck...

I just (this saturday ) picked up a used JD 175 Hydro cheap at a garage sale. It runs and mows good but the neutral position is a little tricky, and it jumps forward when in neutral and the brake pedal has no effect so I assume they need adjusting. I searched 100 pages in this forum but did not...

Well, the old Husky riding mower (made by MTD) has been slowly dying and has pretty much called it quits. So instead of paying money to get it fixed I got on Craigslist and found this. It runs REALLY good, I can't believe how smooth it is for a single cylinder, idles great, the oil is clean...

My neighbors john deere 175, kawasaki 17hp engine usually backfires while starting. We just removed the flywheel and replaced the flywheel key and it still backfires.
