I have a 12.5, I would say leave the engine pulley stock, and get a 4" pulley for the rear end. this setup works great for me.

My mower has been parked since April and I'm having a hard time making roll over. It will start I just have to turn the flywheel while I'm holding the push button starter. What can I do to make it roll over easier? I have tried everything I know

When your transaxle goes out. Do you have put one from another mower like it back in or can you buy a different one and put in it? This is something I haven't had to do before any help would be greatly appreciated

The biggest consideration is getting the pulleys at the same height.... other than that it's mild fabrication or possibly simple swap depending on the models. Obviously, if the input on your old one is on top, you want to stick with that format... same with side input etc.
