Come on Sam, Cub's are built to take it! I have to say that because just last weekend I knocked down a friends yard that hasn't been mowed yet this year (it's best if you don't ask but I'd say it was safe to say it was some yard bush hoggin ) and found a nice what looked like metal brick. The deck shot some sparts (leaving a few nice dings in my new blades, I'm sure ) but rather than throw the belt off the deck pulley, it somehow tripped the mule drive tension relief arm. That took tension off the belt and let the deck stop without hurting the belt or deck. I wondered what the heck happened. Hopped off the tractor, released the arm, and I was back in business.

Anyway, I think some of the Cub belts for these machines are a bit too long as well. Mine is right on the edge of me wanting to replace it but it works fine so I figure why fix it if it ain't broken. AND it was a royal PITA to get on, like if it was any shorter I couldn't have gotten it on. But I digress...anywho, I have seen more than one Cyclops mule drive with a heat spot on it in front of the right pulley (when looking at it from ahead). I'm sure some were operator error but still; makes ya wonder

Did a little more digging, they show the belt part number for the later serial number tractor that has the larger PTO but they don't show the belt number for the early tractor with the small PTO pulley. What is the serial number of your tractor? Just thinking if you have an early 2082 and bought a late style belt that explains the problem.

I have the same problem with my 2182 and 60" Haban. My cub Cadet belt is too long also.

OK....after a major PITA search.....I found the answer

Use belt: 954-3001 for 2082's with S/N range: 800,000 - 821,059
Use belt: 954-3047 for 2082's with S/N range: 821,060 - 836,000


954-3001 is: Sec B x 91.7"
954-3047 is: Sec B x 95.3"

I am guessing you need 954-3001

Some how I missed it on the Parts Tree site. All I found was the different PTO's and that was a clue for me. Gotta love it we have to play detective to figure out what belt to use. Can't blame to OP on this one.

Well congrats on finding the answer Dr. Roland.

I must confess.....(A) it was a major PITA. (B) I only stumbled across the answer by accident, and (C) Cub Cadet sure could have done a whole lot better at referencing or explaining this one.

Sorry for the late reply guys, was at the firehouse after work. I have a late model 2082, 827060. I'll be popping the belt off and stopping by TSC or my electric motor guy (who has a million different belt's in stock) to find one that fits better.

I'm curious, where did you look on parts tree? I did a quick look this morning but couldn't find the belt in question on any of the drawings. I must have overlooked it, or not dug deep enough to find it.

Thanks again guys!

Unklechuckles, if you have the later machine then you have the 6" pto which takes a larger belt then the 4.6" smaller pto on the early machines. Can you measure that or shoot us a pic of it? Maybe someone changed it and put the wrong one on it. And you prolly should measure the deck center pulley also to see if it has been changed. The belt you picked up (954-3047) is a B section belt that is 95.3" long. Don't put a standard V-belt on it because all the twisting and turning will overheat it and destroy it quick. The TSC box store is your friend here. Go buy multiple belts, find what fits and take the rest back.

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.
