Hi,

Been having an issue with my craftsman GT 4500. The drive belt keeps poping off when i try to reverse. its been working fine until today. i changed the belt and it still keeps coming off. Any help i greatly appreciated.

give us the tractor numbers and we can get a diagram to look at....my first thought is a belt guide or pulley is loose...possibly the clutch engagement arm is loose....is it a manual or automatic tranny?

Its an automatic Tranny.
The model # 917.28990 craftsman
It looks like the cooling fan blades are touching the drive belt. however i can use it going forward and everything is good.
