I noticed that the drive sheave and the pto sheave are out of line with each other. I don't know how it happened but it is hard on the bearings. Everything looks like it is where it is supposed to be. The drive shaft is a cut down long shaft to accomodate a creeper. any Ideas.

Which Tractor do you have? A 154 or a 184?

Are the PTO belts too tight in the adjustment??

I've seen the PTO pulley on the PTO shaft actually wobble itself to self destruct its bore on the shaft from not being adjusted correctly. (too tight) I try to adjust everything within spec in the manual.
