On my 345" deck with a 54" width, it fits perfectly. Sadly, it only lasted an hour before it blew apart. I had to buy a tractor from Deere in the end.

To run the blades on my John Deere 345 lawn tractor, I bought this belt. Arrival of the belt was good both in terms of time and in terms of That belt is larger than the original Deere replacement belt. It's a lot heavier duty than the original Deere belt.
After two hours of use on a John Deere 345 54" mower deck, it broke. Previously, we had a belt that lasted longer than five years with the Deere brand. It was almost twice as expensive to go back to the Deere brand. There was no damage anywhere on the belt except where it broke, which indicates there was no problem with the pulley, installation, or other aspects.
This is a good fit.
I went to get a new drive belt for my 335 and it was half the price. The price at the John Deere store where I purchased the mower was almost $80. There is no comparison to this one. It is better in quality and fits well. Once again, Amazon tops the charts! The home run.
I will probably purchase one locally in the future.
This belt fit perfectly. This belt is the same diameter and thickness as the OEM belt. I am very satisfied with it and would recommend it to anyone.
It was a much-needed part, and I am very grateful to have received it because it is helping to get my mower back in service.
