im trying to figur that out too when i switch my pulles and what i am going to do is put some more idler pulleys in and thats it.but what i think u need is somthing that would go right beside the pulley like a bolt that would keep the belt from falling of when u push in on the clutch.thats my opinion and thats what i am going to do with my tractor so the belt dosen`t fall off in the middle of a deep mud hole.

Belt retainers - also check to see if the belts are in line to the pulleys - my mod MTD had a tendency to eat belts - turns out the trans pulley was higher then the other drive pulley and it tore them up.

Sounds like your pulleys may be out of alignment.

Check to see how much flex the transaxle pulley has. With the belt engaged it may be flexing and throwing it out of true.
i had this happen with the stock pulley on my murray.. Very Happy
