Hello group, I am looking for help finding a drive belt for my Hustler with a 440 Kolher 2 stoke engine. Richard sent me a belt that was the right width but the length was too short. He said that was the longest belt that he had. The belt measures 1 3/16" wide and is 51 - 52" long. I could modify the motor mounts to make the 48" belt that Richard has work. However, that would be much more work than I want to do. If you have any ideas, please help!

steve, that is a very long belt. i would try and modify to suit the 48 incher. with longer belts they will flop and lose mechanical harmonics etc.
if you want surf on into the many sled mfg people and they should be able to size you up.
