pto belt comes off cub cadet model 123 with 42" deck
My pto belt keeps coming off. I have a cub cadet model 123 with a 42” mower deck (3 spindles). I have read many old posts on this site about this issue which leads me to believe I have a wrong belt or mule drive idler pulley or both. I have the telltale grooves in the front axle.
Questions: 1. What is the correct outer diameter of the mule drive idler pulleys? I have one (the original I assume) that is ~3.3” OD and a replacement for one that had a binding bearing that is 3.0” OD. 2. There are two holes in each side plate. What hole should the mule drive idler pulley rod be in and why are there two holes? One is more forward and down and the other is more back and up. (see attached image) 3. Could someone kindly verify that these part numbers I looked up are correct before I go ahead and order? PTO to mower deck belt (3/8” W x 81” L): IH-473462-R4 mule drive idler pulley: IH-61176-C92 mower deck spindle drive belt (½” W x 77” L): IH-477599-R2 I’m not having a problem with the mower deck spindle drive belt but according to the part number I looked up, the one I’m currently using is 1” shorter than it should be and about 1/16” thinner in width so I may as well get the right one. 4. Where would you order these parts from? a.) cubcadet.com b.) ccspecialties.org c.) messicks.com d.) somewhere else Thank you

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
