This is an authentic manufacturer made replacement part which is specially designed for use with Craftsman lawn tractors. The idler pulley applies tension to the belt which then makes the blade to rotate. This part is made of metal and is sold individually. Before installation, disconnect the spark plug wire and make sure the ignition key is removed. You will need a socket wrench and an open ended wrench to complete this repair.

Difficult repair, but works great
Shipping took a little longer than I would have preferred, but it came from the factory, so, I guess, that was the reason. Installing the belt was much more difficult than I expected, but it is on and working fine.

Belt tore off and blade was ready to be replaced after damage

Followed instructions on Youtube how to replace a belt and how to replace a blade.
I had to borrow a 15/16 socket and longer wrench to remove the blade bolt.
Once new items were in place on lawn mower, I ran mower with favorable results.

Removed mower deck. Found no diagrams for how belt should be attached. Old belt was off mower, so could not go by that. Called repair service to help. Mower had to be raised with a power lift to get the belt on correctly. This project is difficult without a way to raise mower.Belt works great once installed, but add $100+ for a service call. Maybe someone younger than me would have better luck.
