79360 blower belt and spring

Recommended Posts

Hello all...

I was on my fifth and final driveway this morning trying to remove the slushy and frozen remainders of yesterday’s storm.  I looked down when backing up and way my belt was coming apart badly but only had about 4-5 passes to go when the spring for the idler pullies broke. If I’m not mistaken the belt is a 5/8x69 vbelt and the spring seems to be about 6 1/2 inches long by about 5/8. Want to pick up parts today if possible at tractor supply. First I’d the belt correct and has anyone found a spring suitable there?

thanks

Yes the belt is 5/8"x69" and I did get my last couple at TSC, they also have springs there I'm sure if one is a bit long you can always shorten it.
