I have a Ysi 10 rib flip drive setup. In need of a belt. I'm running a 53.5 gates belt. And putting on a brand new belt. It is already almost maxed out touching itself and squelling. I'm not positive on blower pulley size. But I am running a 15% of crank pulley. Any suggestions on belt length? Or who to call? Where to look to buy? All greatly appreciated

I run a Ysi 10 rib with a 2.85 pulley, secondary drive and a 10% IW. I use a Bando 10pk1320 non EPDM belt. I can use the EPDM belt for a while ($28.00) but it will eventually let go. I have a Weiand #90835 ($80.00) which is a thicker belt and is a non EPDM belt and says Oil and Heat resistance on the belt that is holding up a lot better. Both belts are right at 52 inches. If you get the #90835 from any vendor including Weiand, Jegs, Summit just make sure it does not have the EPDM stamp on the belt, because some will send it to you for $80.00 and it will be the cheap belt.

Where do you order those from. I think I can possibly get a 52.5 on. But a 52 might not happen

The 52 inch belt I have to roll on. I put the top pulley on first and as much that will go on by hand on the crank pulley. Then bump the starter and it will roll right on. I just ordered a #90835 belt from Jegs and it was drop shipped from Weiand and it was the Cheap EPDM belt, talked to their tech dept at both Jegs and Weiand. Weiand thinks they got a batch of the cheap belts by mistake. Jegs sent me a label to send it back for credit.

Ok so the EPDM is the one I don't want. I wonder if they have that same belt but slightly longer

I just found 10pk1335. Comes out to be 52.5in. I'm going to try it 1st. I appreciate your help

Try a gates K100529HD

That looks to be just a bit longer than what I'm needing. I ordered a Bando belt. Going to try it out
