In order to replace the broken generator built on my IH300U, the water pump belt has to be removed. The set screw and pulley collar were both not only rusted in place but painted over. That meant either busting knuckles or a complete front end tear down to get it loose. And a least one full days work.
IH wanted $16 for a new belt, $5 at the hardware, either way was a lot of work.

There are two mfg. of the belts, one is green and one is red, they are both good belts.
