Re: belt size for 48 inch
I ended up using a 1/2 inch belt and it was 78 inches long worked fine. I remember some time back that Timmy had posted something about the 3/8 belts from cub being off a little too thin. Found the belt I use for the 106 and it was too long. So we went from there.

Re: belt size for 48 inch
If you switch to a 1/2 inch belt you may have to change the front 2 idler pulleys to 1/2 inch. Seems to me the factory ones will throw a 1/2 inch belt.... or it turns sideways or something. Direct replacement from napa i think are like 10 bucks each or something. Not sure of the number offhand
