Finally got my j46 mower deck the right size internal deck belt. After trying a few sizes, I've settled on a 76 inch belt. Hope this helps somebody

That length would be about right for a J44 (C22707 belt), a J46 requires an 80" belt (C22708).

Using OEM belts is highly recommended especially for the drive belts. They are not a common size, they are 9.16 where you local belts are 1/2 and 5/8. Will work in a pinch but changes RPM some, do not ride correct in pulleys and do not hold up like the OEM ones of super quality do.

Okay good to know, I guess my deck must be a J44 then. Thanks
