Is there anyone out there who has cross referenced bobcat belt numbers to other manuafacters?

I didn't bother trying.....when I bought my 1993 model, it didn't have an alternator belt, and the prior owner said it ran hot, and he always had to charge the battery I just measured it the old fashioned way with a string and found a 40" V-belt (1/2") fit great. The fan belt I just pulled off and matched it to one at the local princess auto here in Ontario. (I believe it was about 67") Hope this helps.
