Not so easy to install but not the fault of the deck belt. The belt is working great.
The deck belt was in great condition, arrived as scheduled and is exactly what I ordered.

Troy Built Replacement Belts
I followed links for OEM parts however there was some confusion as to whether they were the correct belts. They fit perfectly though. They arrived in about 5 business days.

I recieved the wrong part
I ordered a deck belt by phone for my mower and gave the representative the exact model number for my machine and recieved a the wrong belt! I also was unable to find my model on the website is the reason I called. I'm giving 2 stars because they didn't charge me for return shipping.
