I've been reading the mixed reviews on belt quality. I expect to get from 100-150 hours out of a belt. I replace both mower deck belts 174368/174369 during the same season. I purchased my 1st set from Sears. They lasted almost 2 seasons (around 100 hours). I just installed new belts this season. They have already seen alot of abuse due to extremely high/wet grass. Most belts that break prematurely, break because of 1 of 2 reasons: neglect, due to heavy build-up on the top and/or bottom of the mower deck. Wet grass built up on the bottom creates extra work for the mower/drive belts. Heavy grass build-up on the top of the deck pushes the belt upward, not allowing it to track properly. Clean your mower deck after each use especially if you are mowing high grass. This will extend the life of your belts. The second cause is mechanical (1) misalignment, or (2) binding due to lack of lubrication (my deck has grease fittings) in either case the mower deck will need to be removed and inspected for damage. You should get 1-2 seasons (100+ hours) out of a any belt with proper preventative maintenance.I will update this if necessary.
