Cougar drive belt

[Danf1275]

Are drive belts for original family of Cougars still available from anywhere?

I seem to have developed skipping on a couple of mine, even with eccentrics set quite tight.

Cheers,

if you know the pitch and tooth count, im sure they could be easily located. I found some belts for a bosscat in different widths through Misumi and SDP.si

I'll have a hunt.

Do you recall what pitch was for Bosscat?

[GoMachV]

.080 MXL
The one i ordered for the Bosscat was a 71 tooth but it was 1/4" wide

Just had a look at tranny in both my Works and Club 10, off chassis, so I can see into the bottom and belt looks to climb out of 'mesh' every couple of turns of the diff, as if pitch is very slightly out. Slipping noise is obviously a bit of a 'twang' when resulting excess is taken up.

Did belt spec change at any time? I'm wondering if i've swapped belts for fresher but wrong examples.

Can you read any of the numbers on it?

Belt in Club 10 has 478D printed on it.

Belt in Works has 202DS printed on it.
