Need detailed specs on 914A mower parts

[SacandagaBrad]

Does anyone have a shop manual that lists the actual dimensions on the parts, i.e. the spindle diameter? I have a very loose fitting drive pulley on one of my spindles on a 60" 914A mower and am trying to determine if the spindle is worn or if it is the pulley itself (hoping for that!). A quick check with a caliper I measured .747" diameter on the spindle. The inside diameter of the pulley hole measures .752" on the bottom and .761" on the top, suggesting wear from the wobble that has been occurring. I'm hoping its just the pulley that needs replacing.

Thanks for any info you can provide.

You know you need a new pulley, so go ahead and replace that. When you fit it on you should be able to get a sense of how it fits. Most pulleys that I have dealt with on mowers are softer than the shaft.

The spindles and pulleys on a 914 are all interchangable. Trade pulleys with another spindle and the answer will be obvious.

I guess I should have mentioned that I pulled the spindle/pulley last fall when putting the deck away for the winter and it is packed all the way in the back of my shed and I can't get to it right now. Was thinking of ordering a few things on line and was just trying to find out if I needed to order both parts.
