Please give us them units model number (probably begins with 169) of your unit. Because that tractor was built over a couple of years, need to look up the exact unit.

Nearly all of the simplicity parts manuals are available on line, once you have your model number look the part number up.
Then go to http://www.gates.com/all-search-tools/automotive-interchange-search-results and dial in your pert number to bring up the Gates equivalent.
From there you click on the gates part number which brings up a second screen and clicking on the part number in that screen will bring up the specs of the belt.

Drop the "sm" off the simplicity part number 1716854SM for the transmission belt and you get 6643BR gates belt = 90 & 3/4 x 1/2"
Remember they are kelvar belts and not plain old rubber fan belts.
There are a lot of 4212G's listed so could not do any good chasing up the deck belt.
Not bad considering we do not get Simplicity parts down here.

You might also find the belt numbers listed in the owners manual which is downloaded from the Simplicity web site.
I use Jack small Engine web site to get thatse part numbers if you are interested

YES SIR....I GOT THE MANUAL DOWNLOADED AND PRINTED....A 90 AND 1/2 INCH BELT FOR THE MOWER......SEEMS CORRECT .....HOWEVER WHEN I LOOK IT UP ACCORDING TO THE PART NUMBER 10805 FOR THE 36 INCHMOWER DECK IT COMES UP AS A 70 INCH BELT....THE BELT THAT BROKE WHEN USING IT LAST WEEK MEASURED 54 INCHES UNLESS A PIECE IS MISSING.......SO NOW I AM FAIRLY SURE OF THE MOWER BELT SIZE BUT NOT SURE OF THE DECK BELT SIZE.....SO I ORDERED A 54 INCH BELT AND A 70 INCH....THE FBI WOULD HAVE A HARD TIME WITH THIS ONE......THANKS FOR YOUR EFFORTS THOUGH ..IT IS MUCH APPRECIATED
