GELASKA 2 Pack 918-06991 Spindle Assembly with 954-04060C Belt Replaces 618-06991 918 06991 for Troy Bilt 42" Pony 42, Bronco 42, Huskee LT4200, Craftsman 42 T110 T130 T1000 T1200 T1400 LT4200 Mowers

What It Is

This is a 2-pack of aftermarket spindle assemblies paired with a drive belt, designed to replace worn spindles and the belt on 42-inch deck riding mowers from Troy-Bilt, Craftsman, and Huskee. It’s for mowers that use the OEM spindle part 918-06991 and belt 954-04060C.

Fitment & Compatibility

Before buying, confirm your mower has a 42-inch cutting deck. This set fits Troy-Bilt Pony 42 and Bronco 42, Huskee LT4200, and Craftsman T110, T130, T1000, T1200, T1400, and LT4200 models. The spindle assembly is an aftermarket replacement for OEM parts 918-06991 and 618-06991. The belt (954-04060C) is a matched replacement. Check your deck’s spindle bolt pattern (usually 3-hole, 2.5-inch center-to-center) and measure the belt length (original is 96.5 inches). Verify your mower uses a single belt for the deck drive, not two separate belts.

Key Things to Know

• Quality vs OEM: These are non-OEM spindles; they may use different bearings or seals. Expect shorter lifespan than genuine parts under heavy use.
• Installation difficulty: Moderate. You’ll need a jack or lift, wrenches, and possibly a puller for stubborn old spindles. The belt routing is straightforward but requires removing the deck or accessing from underneath.
• Common gotchas: The spindles may not include grease fittings (check listing). If your mower has a different belt part number (e.g., 954-04060A), double-check length—this belt is 96.5 inches. Also, ensure your deck has the same pulley diameter (usually 4 inches).
• Compatibility limits: This set won’t work on 46-inch or 54-inch decks, or on zero-turn mowers. It’s only for the listed 42-inch models.

Should You Buy It

If you have a 42-inch Troy-Bilt, Craftsman, or Huskee rider with worn spindles (noisy, wobbling) and a stretched belt, this 2-pack is a cost-effective fix for DIYers. It’s not for heavy commercial use, but for residential mowing, the price and rating make it a solid choice.
