Lawn Tractor Mandrel Housing (replaces 137152) 532137152

Terrible replacement parts

Poorest quality. On third set of parts and they are still not right. The mounting flanges that I ordered were not fitting up to my mower. The teaching bolts that come with them don't fit in the mounting holes. It's either one of two things. The holes on the mount need to be threaded or need to be drilled out to accommodate the correct sized screws. I am on my third set of parts and still don't have the correct ones. My lawn is now out of control. So very frustrated.

Lawn Tractor Mandrel Housing

When I order this housing assembly, 132152, the part was substituted by part # 532137152. This part looks identical to the part I took out of the mower deck. However, when I tried to use the existing screws to install this new part I was surprised to find out that the mounting holes are SMALLER than the mounting holes on the old housing. I attempted to find a smaller diameter screw of the same length and head size (THD) from my local hardware store only to find out this is a special order part. I have not been able to install my new part!!! Needless to say, I can't use my mower until I can find these screws! I'm in the process of ordering the screws from the parts catalog, 157722, this comes up with a substitute part #. The cost of these screws is expensive and I need three of them. There should be a NOTE when ordering this housing assembly that new style screws are required when installing this part. i can only hope and pray when I order 157722, that the the proper screws will match the holes in the new housing. This whole process has set me back at least two weeks of my time. By the way, the picture included in this review is NOT what part# 132151 looks like, it is actually a three post mounting setup, not four.
