Thank you for the information it worked for me!! Now I need to find some used sheaves etc for my 1 1/8 hp OA Smith motor. New I am looking at $180.00 for them. Not sure it is worth putting that much money in it?
Thanks again

If you only need the two sheaves then you would order the 504208 floating sheave for $34.96 and the 504207 fan sheave for $32.75. The add shipping and possibly taxes but that is far from $180, perhaps $80?
