Default What v-belt do you like?

Quite a few choices between Goodyear gatorback, Dayco, Conti, Gates, etc.

After only about 15K my Contitech is brown with cracks, not impressed by the longevity.

Goodyear gatorback has good reviews.

4060740 looks to be the correct part number, length.

Anybody here using this brand and if so do you like the results?

Thanks for the feedback, only thing is I cannot find a parts section at their site, it's only tires.
Relying on amazon for the correct part number I am not keen on.
I can't even find a cross reference site but summit has the same part number.

I can agree with you as in my OP, the conti is all cracked up and I am not sure I even have 15K since I replaced it.
