If you loosened the nut enough, you may just need to get a pry bar under it. Try to get as close to the center as you can. You could also bend the guard away in a pinch, just bend it back when you’re done.
Thanks for replying on a older video...cant seem to find a lot on my specific model. If i may ask, i did get my drive belt changed but i have 0 brakes now, like nothing at all. Belt is on right and stuff....any thoughts ? ( yes i tried the adjustment nut on there also, still nothing)
Thanks for watching! The kit came with the axle sleeves (in stainless) but I didn't know the original bolt was worn through until I got it apart. Replacing it is on the list, but would be a boring video. Not everyone has a bearing press, so I had to use what was available.
I went online and got the rebuilt kit whick was all stainless steel oil infused with new axle sleeves, and I used a 3/4 brass rod to knock them out. It took about 30 minutes to complete both front wheels ....thanks a lot for your help!@wecanfixit7308
Thank you so much for this video! Could you make a video on how to adjust the deck height on the Husqvarna Z54F? I have the same model as you, and I can’t seem to adjust it for anything. On the highest setting (6) the front is 2.5” off the ground, and the back is 3.5”. I’m fine with the pitch, but it just seems so close to the ground, even just 1/2” higher would be nice.
sure. I just did this. basically there’s two bolts at the front that adjust the front tilt. You need to make sure your air pressure is correct and that you’re on level ground to start. The wheel bushings being worn out actually lower the front of the mower also.
@@wecanfixit7308 Thank you so much for this. I ordered the same bushings kit you used. So I’m hoping to install them tomorrow or early next week. I adjusted those two bolts on the front end of the mower (beneath the gray plastic foot rest). They adjusted that front bar that hooks into the deck. Tightening them brought the deck too far forward so that I couldn’t get the front deck lift arms over the frame pins. I also believe the rear deck lift arm bolts are as tight as they can be. So I guess it must be a leveling issue with the tires. 🤷🏼♀️ After I put the new bushings on, I’ll measure everything and figure out how to adjust from there. Thank you so much, I really can’t tell you how helpful this video was!
@@Aveeguides I’ll take another look at the leveling. My axles had eaten halfway through the bolts, so I know the front was at least a half/ three quarters of an inch lower than it should have been
sorry, meant to link www.amazon.com/XQK-Stainless-Bearing-Conversion-Husqvarna/dp/B0CL4J1FPV/ref=sr_1_3?crid=1ZXE4K7DTIB8S&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.6nXWyCd5PBIGbv9NNSLNaUV_mWGMN5Gm2RNbhQ0DRqJ5sqF7hRr3yKINWzDCHNLd_QzU2qIjwGKiQi30rrj2TN_DVPBuI-ez1QSf_TR1Xj8ZdpTjwmgUwVixUdlNVSIfV8oS26FgBSEmPPFd5YKiM_h24thBaJvJ1JsHe6bRLyP7kgFCSfpPwlBJWHPzVUEtVUbiIQpXmIWAXgXS_SUR5J5hDbIilkkf3og4bvtp9Nk.50w6MQhFb_CLGbGe0Xg0yv4DwkLAlsa6w3S3kbDf3ik&dib_tag=se&keywords=husqvarna+z254f+front+wheel+bearings&qid=1719509637&sprefix=husqvarna+z254F+front+wheel+%2Caps%2C136&sr=8-3
buongiorno,ho un trattorino john deere 105 e oggi o stavo partendo e ho sentito un rumore e il trattore non si muoveva più, ho spostato a mano il trattorino e sotto ho trovato una molla di faerro rotta con una rondella grande ,cosa e successo? Grazie Canetti
its probably the spring that keeps tension on the clutch pedal, without it in place the belt will slip and the mower won't move. It should be an easy fix
"Sto usando ChatGPT per tradurre: probabilmente è la molla che mantiene la tensione sul pedale della frizione, senza di essa la cinghia scivolerà e il trattorino non si muoverà. Dovrebbe essere una riparazione facile."
I love these videos. Five minutes ago I finally changed my Nikki carb to another brand, new fuel pump, air/and gas filters, they sent wrong spark plug so I just cleaned the one in it, new gas hose, the gas filter they sent had one whole end broken off and not even in the box but mine was fine. I just hit the switch and it cranked a few laps and started right up. Purrs like a new kitty. I am learning and I enjoy working on all my old mowers except the ones with generators to start them.
There is a video that tells you to double up on that spring and never have the problem again. Or, drill and put a bolt thru that hole which will prevent the wear this guy experienced. See how the metal had stretched and pulled up? That's what cut the end of the spring!
So, if the thermostat is changed and the there are still issues like the cooling engine going crazy can it be possible that the water pump could leak coolant ?
This is exactly what was happening to my mower. My belt was still on but was loose. Looked at tension spring and looked okay. My tensioner was stuck in loose position. Moved it over and reconnected spring and all was good. You just saved me probably $300 or more. Thanks and be safe!!!
Thanks man just found out my belt was on the wrong way. Now its circulating fine.. One question what are those round wheel things called i think the move the wheels. I see im missing on lol
we've all done it. Its probably not good for the hydrostatic units, but if you didn't hear anything break, and you didn't break the beads on the tires, you're probably ok.
Thank you for this, my mower had the same issue i stretched the spring with pliers and ran a thick steel hook through it to join the parts worked long enough to move the mower.
Finally someone with an answer to why mover going so slow. Put on a new drive belt still a bit of slack. New belt was the same length as old one that was cracked and had missing pieces. Did they sell me the wrong belt.
pull back on the clutch pedal with your foot to take the slack out manually and see if it pulls better. If it does, lube that pedal pivot point up with something and maybe shorten the return spring some, or possibly replace it.
I've been dealing with this issue on my 2015 Yukon for a year and a half. I've put 5 thermostats and about 8 sensors in it, replaced the sensor plug...this thing is driving me crazy. Everytime I replace the thermostat and sensor its ok for about 2 months then starts the engine protect mode and gets more and more frequent. Tested the thermostats and they seem to work ok with the boiling water test, sensors seem to work with multimeter testing but once replaced it's only a matter of time until the issue starts. I started carrying a socket to pull the battery cable to reset the computer to buy a little more time and get the ac working again.
@@wecanfixit7308 I did replace the plug, it didn't resolve any of the issues. I'm going to start checking out all the grounds as I've seen other videos mentioning issues with them causing all types of different issues.
@@ncarlen3 grounds could certinly cause weird things. I had a random no start on mine forever that ended up being the negative battery cable. Of course I found this after cleaning every ground on the truck. Good luck!
Hi, thanks for share your experiences with us. Could you tell me the parte number, serial number or characteristics of belt? I need to change it. Thanks un advance. Regards from Argentina
O’yeah the good’O war stories from the wife. 😂 never mind the 100’s of good money saving stories you’ll have on DIY projects. I believe they’ll call that the motivational speech.
