Ponyboy 64 #1 Posted July 19, 2022 Hello! Just rec’d off Ebay an 8005 drive belt and it has a spot where it is twisting 180 degrees which I think came from how it was wrapped/packaged (folded in half with paper sleeve slipped over it like most other new belts). My fear is the twist will throw it off if I use it, can it be straightened out or do I need another one? Rest of the belt looked good, just this one section marked in the photo. Thanks! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 43,769 #2 Posted July 19, 2022 (edited) Is that a new belt or a new old one that's been twisted for several years? Napa Replacement 4L720W Edited July 19, 2022 by squonk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ponyboy 64 #3 Posted July 19, 2022 @squonk Advertised as “New OEM Genuine TORO Wheel Horse #8005 Belt”. Has “wheel horse 8005” printed on belt, this is the belt and how it arrived to me, doesn’t appear to have any wear on it, just a funky spot where it where it has a twist before it goes back to normal.
