I have ordered two belts for my 1997 Case 1845c & both are the wrong size. Anyone order a belt lately? The two I ordered are too big. The last belt was a J911559 which is obviously wrong. Am I doing something wrong after reassembly?
I recall the tensioner being closer to the water pump.
I double checked the placement and it is correct. That was my initial thought.
Probably the two you already have tried but the Case Web site calls for either J911558 or J911559 depending on the cooling fan set up.
Not that it is going to help but here is a picture I found that does agree with how yours is positioned and routed! The two part numbers I find are J911558 and J911559 which I would assume are the two numbers you tried.
Just for information I crossed both those Case numbers to NAPA numbers and they show the J911558 that changes to a NAPA number 25080590HD to be the belt for a 1845C. Also I looked in the dimensions section and that one is listed as 59.511 inch Outside Circumference The J911559 is a 62.642 inch Outside Circumference belt. Just wondering if the belts you got were miss-marked or in wrong package, did you confirm the number on the package was the same as the one on the belts?
Here is what I found from the Case 1845C Facebook page: I ordered the J911559 and they were too big. Tried to different manufacturers. My belt measured 29.5" folded in half. A member on the page suggested the Gates K080594. He uses that one on his 1845C. It has the same measurement as my belt so I am going to try that. Should be here in a few days! Hopefully it works. Thanks for your help
J911559 crosses to 25080620 @ 62.642 outside measurements. J911558 crosses to 25080590 @ 59.521" outside measurement. K080594 crosses to 25080594 @ 59.968" outside measurement.
Looks like the J91158 is my belt. I sm interested to sr what my other two 1845Cs are using.
I will post when I get the new on in a few days.
Any updates Larpy? I'm sorting out a belt issue with one of our 1845c skid steers right now too
prolly need to send him a pm. He hasn't logged on since December , 2020
I saw that after I replied to the message.
