C165 in the UK 0 #1 Posted May 3, 2020 I’m trying to find the part numbers for the mower deck belts for my C-165. Does anyone know what they are, or their length? I think it is one belt around the pulleys on the mower, one to connect it to the pulley near the front axle and a final one to the PTO clutch. Thanks!

daveoman1966 3,841 #2 Posted May 3, 2020 What mower deck do you have...Model #? If not the model number, what SIZE is the deck.. 36", 42" (side or rear) or 48" The deck belts are ALL identified by the deck model...not the tractor model. I'd be gle to help you procure these belts, but we gotta get it right the FIRST TIME. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C165 in the UK 0 #3 Posted May 3, 2020 Not sure, it’s at my yard at the moment, but I think it’s a 48”. Picture attached. I’m just starting to restore it at the moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daveoman1966 3,841 #7 Posted May 12, 2020 I would urge you to use OEM belts... Aftermarket belts are not of the EXACT same geometry...too thin, thick, high, wide and and they are...generally speaking... of lesser quality. On the oither hand, being in the UK may make it cost prohibitive to have OEM belts sent across the pond. Belt 1594 can be had for $26 and belt 102742 (94-2501) is in the USA for $28. Pprobably 8 or 10 shipped to ME but they don't ship direct to UK. thru this website https://www.psep1.biz/arinet.asp?aribrand=TO# Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
