I wouldnt buy a thing from stens nothing is to spec bearings are junk, they switched to all garbage parts increased prices and took dealer discounts away from all the smaller independent shops. Thank you from Just ~ in Time Small Engine Repair 😉

I ordered a Max Power 10741 idler pulley for a 48" Deere mower deck but then got scared by reviews talking about premature failure and decided to order this one - a name brand idler pulley for $5 more that's also "Made in the USA" (my mower deck requires two of these pulleys).Well, it turns out that both pulleys use exactly the same Chinese bearing - Peer 6203RLD. They are also nearly identical in other ways, so they could be manufactured in the same plant (see photo - Stens is on top, Max Power on the bottom).Not sure if Max Power upgraded their bearings or Stens is prone to the same failures - time will tell. I'll update this review in case of a premature failure (yes, I really will!). Hope this helps!!

Purchased to rebuild deck on John Deere L130 - fit and work perfectly!! Deck is like new again. Very pleased with their product. Actually went back and ordered the rest of the part to rebuild the entire deck. Would definitely order again - hmmmm guess I already have. Lol.

Bought this to replace worn out mule drive idlers on my 1969 Sears Suburban SS12. The OD of the belt section is about 1/4" smaller in diameter over stock, but it worked well without any adjustments. You'd want to get this and "Stens 280-309 Heavy Duty Replacement V-idler" https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B010SBQG58/ to make a matched set (yes these listings say John Deere but they fit this application perfectly). The bearing in both idlers is the exact same as stock so it fits on the mule drive shaft no problems. I've mowed a couple acres and they work perfectly.

Exactly like what came out. The old ones had bad bearings and starting to make that nasty grinding noise that bearings make when they are going. The new ones are as smooth as silk and went on perfect. My mower deck will last another 10 years now.
