Aeagle 130794 Spindle+153535 Pulley Fit for 42" Deck Craftsman LT1000 LT2000 DYT4000 (only for 3 Spindle Holes) Husqvarna CT130 CTH150 YTH150 YTH1542 YT150 YTH130 532130794 128285

What It Is

This is a combined spindle assembly and pulley kit for 42-inch cutting decks on select Craftsman and Husqvarna lawn tractors. It replaces the original spindle (OEM 130794) and pulley (OEM 153535) to drive the deck belt and spin the blade. Designed for tractors with a three-spindle (two outer, one center) deck configuration.

Fitment & Compatibility

Crucial check: This kit only fits 42-inch decks with three spindle holes—not two-spindle or four-spindle decks. Measure your deck width and confirm spindle count before ordering.

Models it fits:

• Craftsman: LT1000, LT2000, DYT4000 series with 42" decks
• Husqvarna: CT130, CTH150, YTH150, YTH1542, YT150, YTH130

OEM cross-references: 532130794, 128285. This is an aftermarket replacement—not genuine OEM, but matches original dimensions.

Measurements to verify:

• Pulley diameter: 4.0 inches (center hole 5/8 inch)
• Spindle shaft length: ~3.25 inches
• Mounting bolt pattern: 3-hole triangle, 2.75-inch center-to-center

Key Things to Know

• Quality is acceptable for the price – Users report it holding up for 1-2 seasons under normal use. Not as durable as OEM, but fine for homeowner mowing.
• Installation is moderate difficulty – Requires removing the deck, belt, blade, and original spindle. A pulley puller may be needed if the old pulley is seized.
• Lubricate before installing – The spindle has no grease fitting; apply grease to the bearing cavity during assembly to extend life.
• Check blade alignment – After installation, spin the blade by hand to ensure it’s not binding. A slightly crooked spindle can cause vibration and uneven cut.

Should You Buy It

Buy this if you need a budget-friendly replacement for a worn spindle and pulley on a 42-inch Craftsman or Husqvarna tractor with three spindle holes, and you’re comfortable with a moderate DIY job. Skip it if you want OEM durability or if your deck has two or four spindles—it won’t fit.
