Default lawn mower (tractor) jerks

Doug wrote:
What causes the tractor to jerk while it is going? It seems to be getting
worse. Is it the drive belt, rear end or something else?


Loose chain, worn axle splines, drive pulley shaft and key sloppy and
badly worn, rims not securely attached to drive axle, rear end or
transmission or engine loose, etc. Any one of these or some combination
of the above.
