Default 102 bolt on mule drive adding tiller

Hey guys, so I'm going to use a 1a tiller with my 102 upgraded to 12hp kohler. My mule drive is the bolt on type that has one bolt against one pulley for tightening, nothing on other side, no bolt, no spring. Curious if this setup will be enough support for other pulley as far as evening out tension, or if I should look into upgrading to better mule or retro-fitting my existing mule drive to add some strength to other pulley? Any and all advice is wanted and welcomed.

Should work fine. You only need to tension the belt at one point, that will result in same tension everywhere along it's length. (load on the belt ignored).

It will work fine. I used my former 122 and 1A tiller for numerous gardens in the neighborhood and it worked great.

I used NAPA belts, AX-144 for the long belt

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
