#1: online v belt vendor id needed
Posted on 2006-06-15 06:50:54 by RB
I need a vendor who has good prices on v belts commonly found on mower deck
drives.
Just broke a belt on our church Cub Cadet RZT 50. I'll swear, that's the
longest belt I've seen on a mower deck. Looks to be approx 131". I know
that's not the actual measurement, because the ends are jagged.
For now, I'm buying one from a Cub dealer. From it, I'll get an accurate
measurement, and maybe a number that can be crossed. So, the challenge then
will be to find a less expensive source for future buys.
We also have a Craftsman 50'" hydro gt mower, and a JD GT-275. At some
point, I know we'll need belts for those decks.
We have approx 8 acres of somewhat rough terrain, so belts will get torn up,
no doubt. I maintain the mowers and do the mowing, volunteer.

The last time I bought a belt from the local Cub Cadet dealer I was
surprised - the price was actually competitive - hard to beat. Plus, I had
the machine on my trailer, had trouble getting the belt on, and they helped
me. I won't hesitate to go back.
