Husqvarna 140218 Replacement: Compare 3 Options

How to find your model number

Check your model number before you buy a replacement for the 140218. On a riding mower or lawn tractor the model and serial label is usually under the seat, on the frame beside the seat, or near the battery. Deck parts may also need the deck size, which is often on a decal on top of the deck.

• Briggs & Stratton engines: the model, type and code numbers are usually stamped on the engine shroud or on a sticker on the blower housing.
• Kohler engines: a label with the model, specification and serial numbers is usually on the blower housing.
• Honda engines: the engine type (for example GCV160) is usually cast or printed on the engine block, with the serial number nearby.

If the old belt is still readable, the part number is often printed on its back. To measure it, run a cloth tape along the outside of the belt and note its width.

Spring maintenance

Check the drive belt before the first cut: replace it if it is cracked, frayed or glazed, or if the mower creeps or slips on hills.

Maker's part vs aftermarket: the 140218

We did not find Husqvarna's own 140218 on Amazon. 3 brands sell a drive belt listed as its replacement, including Antanker, BlueStars, Holdly.

• Maker's own part: made and sold by the equipment or engine maker (for example John Deere, MTD or Briggs & Stratton). Usually the highest price.
• Aftermarket parts: made by other companies to the same size and fit. Usually cheaper; materials and build quality vary by brand.
• Before you buy: find your equipment's model number (see How to find your model number, above), compare the size of your old part, and confirm the fit on the product page.
