Help with identifying the model for yard machine garden tractor

[suburbanfarmer]

Hello All,

Trying to help a neighbor who has this old YardMachine by MTD . Its mower deck belt shredded to pieces so we cant measure and get a replacement. The machine is so old that all tags are gone.
Any help with model or belt size is greatly appreciated.

Awesome, thanks guys.

Looks like he needs the deck drive belt, not deck belt
This model has one belt the moves all the blades and one side has a dbl stack pulley which runs the belt to the engine pulley. So that belt is what he needs and not the 954-0349 one.

Going to try this one MTD 954-04122 46-Inch Deck Drive Belt for Riding Mower/Tractors, 1/2-Inch by 90 1/4-Inch

if anyone else has problem identifying a belt length, get a length of 1/2" rope, and put that where the belt goes, and mark the size with tape, then measure the length!.. btw, nice tractor 4 speed manual!.. rare these days..
