While you're at it check to make sure the deck is level. You can't just eyeball it as I learned at the cost of several belts. :sidelaugh:
The belt is shorter due to the center deck pully being smaller.99flhr said:Just an FYI
Dealer "bhildret" on this site has a Goodyear belt for 60" mowers @ somthing approaching 40% leass than the OEM.
Might help in the future.
