AC66 combine question

[Charlie M]

I broke the belt that drives the bin unloading system this weekend and I'm having a problem getting one that works. The one that broke got shredded enough we couldn't get a good measurement. I've got a part number for the belt and the internet says it should 67 inches but the one I got seems too long. It requires the pin in the arm that moves the idler pully to rub against the belt to make it tight enough and that doesn't seem right unless I have it installed wrong - seems pretty simple to install correctly. Anybody know what the correct length for belt should be and maybe a picture of how its installed. Fortunately I got my wheat finished but I'm sitting on a bin full I can't unload. I have a big bin combine if it makes a difference on the belt but the parts manual doesn't list more than one belt.

The original part # is 523693. Should be a B61 belt, 5/8 x 64 inches.

I have 3 # 66 models and 2 60 models to salvage out . I’ll check a belt length
