Okay boys, someone here must have some input on this. I've spent hours trying to determine what size and type of belt I have so that I can start looking for proper sized shives (sp?) to make a repair. What I have is a Melroe Bobcat 444 with the variable speed pulley drive set up. Yes, I know, it's ancient and a waste of time and money, but it's what I have and it works great when I can get it to work. The problem is the hydraulic variable drive pulley bore is so worn the I can't keep it from walking off the crank end of the engine. There just isn't anything there to do anymore with to secure it. I was fine until I took the totally bald car tires off it and put snow tread types on. I couldn't move on wet concrete, much less in mud with the bald ones and now I can't keep the torque from shifting the pulley assy off the crank. In searching for a fix I came across a guy on You Tube that used a solidly attached pulley system that looks fine for what I'd need it for. The problem is finding out what type of pulley halves, shives/sheeves I've always called them, I need. The belt it takes is a Melroe 6504510, a wide, internally cogged belt. Internet searches show dimensions and type info for all sorts of other belts but not this one.
Does anyone know of a place where I can ID this belt and what type it is, dimensions, etc. so I can start looking for the correct pulley halves?

Today's Featured Article - Restoring a John Deere 2010 Diesel Tractor - by Jim Nielsen. Following seven years working in California's Silicon Valley, my wife, baby son and I moved back to Australia to retire. We bought a small 'farm' of about 50 acres near Bendigo, in the state of Victoria. I soon found that it would be very useful to have a tractor around the place for things such as grading our long drive and brush-hogging the fields. I was also embarking on planting 1000 eucalyptus trees, and hence I would need a ripper, small disk plow, sprayer etc. to get these things accompli
