With a group of friends last night, I was asked the question why new belts and hoses don't last as long as original?
Over the years, I have found this to be true. One example is when I decided to change the still good V belt on my Case backhoe. The machine is old and it apparently had the worn original belt. I had the hydraulic pump off so I decided to install a new belt. Case dealer only had one belt in stock so I left the old belt, tied out of the way as insurance. I used the machine for about two years and the new belt broke!
I simply reinstalled to old belt and it is still working after three years.
I have found this to be true with many water hoses as well. You can have a Gates belt or hose and you can replace with exact number and they will go bad before the original old hoses that were not replaced!
