Usually the bronze bushing found on the replacement idler pulley and the bushings in the rollers are impregnated with softer metals that act as a lubrication. I've repaired appliances for several years and have yet to find a lubricant that will last. Once th rollers or pulley start to squeek, it is only a matter of time before they will need to be replaced. In the amount of time it takes to regrease the parts, with a little expense, you can change the parts and solve the problem.

Where can you get a diagram of replacing a drive belt on John Deere LT133?

I'm in the process of changing out the drive belt and I got a diagram from my local John Deere dealer. NOTE!!.....There is an adjustment to be made on the idler pulley, which is directly underneath the seat. The pulley itself obscures this slot and I learned the hard way....so I have to take it apart (again) and tighten the belt. Be sure and grease your pulleys when you have the mower deck off as the grease zerks are hard to get to and this is an oppotune time to do this.

How is a double pulley threaded or roped to a load?

It depends on the style. Attach the pulley that has two eyelets to the top beam. using one of the eyelets. Then attach the rope to the bottom eylet and tie a very secure knot in it. Then run the rope to the lower pulley and through the pulley hole. Then run the rope back to the upper pulley and through its hole. Now pull the rope tight. If you have another set of rollers in the pulley just follow the first length, repeating the process until all the pulley holes are filled.

How do you take off the harmonic balaner on 1998 Toyota 4 runner?

first you need to get a chain wrench or the Toyota special tool to hold the pulley while you remove the bolt. I usually do this with two people to make it easier. If you use a chain wrench make sure you wrap an old drive belt around the pulley to protect it from the chain. Once the bolt is loose make sure you put the engine to top dead center if you are replacing the timing belt, if not then don't worry about it. You may need a pulley remover to get the pulley off the nose of the crankshaft. I like to grease up the nose of the crankshaft so the pulley comes off easier next time.
