What is the proper drive belt size for the Woods 42 with the original mule drive (1949 Cub)? Thanks

As I recall there are two different lengths depending on which 42C mower you have. 42C-4 and below take one length and 42C-6 takes a different length. Best to consult Rudi's manuals to make sure you have the correct deck ID then check the parts section in that manual for the correct belt part number.
IF it's a 42C-4 then from my "belts and bearings" spreadsheet I keep handy;
Woods 42C-4
Drive Belt 5/8 x 136 Woods 1469 PIX B133K Gates B133
I don't have a "6" so I don't have it listed.

Thanks for all the responses folks. I'll take a look this morning and see if I can identify which specific version of the mower I have.

There should be some numbers embossed into the outside surface of the belt...
