Does anyone know the proper length belt for a QA-42 snowthrower on a 682? The supplier was not able to match the cub cadet number I had (78056). I was told 35" is what I need, but that is too short.

Also, I noticed that the angle of the blower pulley and pto pulley are not the same. The pto pulley tilts slightly back and the blower pulley is level/slightly forward. Is this normal? If not, is there a proper way to correct it? When I hooked up the thrower, everything 'seemed' to line up properly. So I don't know if something moved or I just didn't notice.

One last thing, is there a supplier that sells the 5/8" pulley for the thrower? My thrower is the 'A' model and I believe it still has the 1/2" pulley. I thought since both the tractor and thrower came from the same dealer, maybe it was switched. However, the belt does not sit on both pulleys the same, so I believe I have the wrong pulley on the thrower.

Thanks for any help!
