Various mule drives taken off parts tractors. Any info. from the experts as to why various pulleys, other than the far right one has cheap one on right side. 2 I think are from FDT styles, 1 off a RBT.

I may be wrong but as I see it; middle mule is probably off 3300 RBT with W style belt to drive mower deck.Smaller diameter outer pulley for sickle mower. Other two are off FDT with the one on the right having the small end on the double pully to drive a sickle mower. Others with more knowledge will correct me if I'm wrong. B10Dave

I agree with Dave about the middle is probably off a 3300 series RBT but could be off a B200/3200 FDT. Those two PTOs are virtually identical with the actuator rod assembly removed.

The one on the left has the proper actuator spring guide rod assembly , belt guard and three piece shaft with cast pulleys for a B200/3200 series


while the one on the right is a two piece shaft assembly with stamped steel drive pulley and correct belt shield off a b110/3010 or b112/3112 which is impossible to decern without being able to measure or compare the actuator spring guide rod*.
(*B110 is shorter than B112. )

Not to cut this thread short but this is a link to a thread that outlines the changes in the evolution of the swing arm pto. There are in my estimate seven different pto's with most models differing from its predecessors by the change of only a few parts over the entire FDT line.
