42" Sickle mower belt sizes?

[Fred Jimenez 24]

Looking for the correct belt sizes for a SMS 42 sickle mower I plan to mount to a 417. These belts are the last thing I need to finish up getting it up and running so any input would be greatly appreciated.

The original belt sizes are on this page but don't know how the short frame to long frame conversion will affect the required belt lengths.

The 50" bar for long frame tractors

Did some more checking.

 

Looks like all the 42" sickles for short and long frame tractors use a 1/2" x 34" first drive belt

 

The 50" sickles SMS-50 and SMS-505 on short frame tractors use a 1/2" x 37" first drive belt

The 50" sickles on long frame tractors use 1/2" x 38" first drive belt

 

The 2nd belt 1588 is used on all of them 1/2" x 59"
