    Some of this might help. I am in the middle of replacing mine and have it all done but getting the belt back over the idler pulley. That is the only hard part. You will have to remove the deck first per your manual (link attached to download one if needed), then the steering linkage, the brake linkage, and the connection to the parking brake lever. Then look at the diagram on the parts listing (link attached) and re-route the belt. Like I said, the tensioner is the most difficult.
    Good luck. Also is a link to some other postings.

My Scotts lawn tractor won't start. When I turn the key, it just make a clicking noise. The "book" states it may be the starter or the solenoid? What's a solenoid and where is it located? Actually, what does the starter look like?
