Gene, Have you looked at this source for belts?? I see a 15" belt...
http://www.vbeltsupply.com/k-series-poly?cat=248 I've purchased V belts from this place before for my finish mower that I pull with a tractor. Locally belts for it were near $80 each. They sell them for about $25 each. The belts they supplied were as good or better than what I could buy locally.
