53822 7" 10 Blade Transmission Fan Compatible with Husqvarna Craftsman T2400, YT3000, T2500, yth22v46, P-ZT5224 Lawn Tractor, Replaces 584282001

What It Is

This is a 7-inch, 10-blade transmission cooling fan designed for Husqvarna and Craftsman lawn tractors. It attaches to the hydrostatic transmission input shaft to draw air over the transmission, preventing overheating during mowing or towing.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, verify these three things:

• Model match: Fits Husqvarna T2400, T2500, YT3000, YTH22V46, P-ZT5224 and Craftsman counterparts. Check your model number plate under the seat or on the frame.
• Fan dimensions: Exactly 7 inches diameter, 10 blades. Measure your old fan’s diameter and blade count—5- and 6-blade versions exist and won’t interchange.
• Shaft size: Fits the standard 3/4-inch diameter input shaft common on Hydro-Gear and Tuff Torq transmissions on these models. If your shaft is 5/8-inch or 1-inch, this fan won’t fit.
• OEM replacement: Directly replaces OEM part #584282001. Aftermarket, but matches original specs.

Key Things to Know

• Quality note: At $8.79, it’s a budget-friendly plastic fan. It’s functional but less durable than OEM—expect 2-3 seasons under normal use, less if you mow in dusty or debris-heavy conditions.
• Installation: Moderate difficulty. You must remove the transmission pulley (usually a 15/16-inch or 1-inch nut) and slide the old fan off. The new one presses on by hand or with a light tap—no special tools, but a puller may be needed for the pulley.
• Common gotcha: The fan is directional. The “cup” side should face the transmission housing (away from the pulley). Installing backward reduces airflow and can cause overheating.
• Check for damage: If your old fan shattered, inspect the transmission shaft for burrs or rust. Clean and lightly oil the shaft before installing the new fan to prevent premature cracking.

Should You Buy It

Yes, if you need a quick, low-cost fix for a broken transmission fan on a compatible Husqvarna or Craftsman tractor and you’re comfortable with basic pulley removal. Skip it if you want OEM-grade longevity or have a different shaft size—spend a few dollars more for the genuine part in those cases.
