Went today to get a belt for my 997R for the grass blower it was $ 159.00 plus GST, wasn't much more than an alternator belt for a car. I didn't get as she couldnt confirm if it was right or wrong. Can I take the belt that I cut off to Napa or somewhere else, that is ridicules to pay that for this size of belt.

Should have asked her for the part number then crossed it yourself

Go to Martin’s. Bring your credit card.

It might just hurt a little.

There is a place across from ufa. They measure the width and the length and grab you a belt. Way cheaper.

I've been supporting parkland cycle since i moved here but yesterday the rude middle aged guy was too rude so I will never be back.

You could cross it but if the original is Kevlar and you buy one that’s not, you’ll go through many belts. Learned that from our swisher mower we had. Peavey Mart has Kevlar ones.

Not saying you need Kevlar.

The old old guy there is awesome, hes a stinky old farmer but he's awesome. The middle aged guy is a douch of all douches...... They used to have a young girl on the parts desk too but she probably quit.

Most parts store can measure and supply you the belt, Bumper to Bumper is really good for doing that. You can stop there on your way to your office.

I had your main belt. Not the blower belt.

I'd challenge the Martin lady. I bet she did the same thing

Google say $44.57 US

He is. I've bought a few parts off him for my old tractors. The other guy is an douche. I've bypassed him every time because he always is rude. This time he said something that lost my business forever which sucks because I liked supporting them and seeing the old gear.
