We operate 3 9860sts premiums and had problems last year,(our first with sts) with chopper belts slipping and overheating.They would crack and we had to replace 6 belts $374/belt.JD knew about this and supposedly fixed it on the 70 series.they stared an update and went to a triple pulley setup H228149,AH217591,and triple belt H229882,our dealer started the PIPS and realized he could not get any belts.apperantly that is the same setup they use in europe.deere is not getting back to us as to why the belts are not avalible any more.if anyone knows a solution to this please let me know ASAP as our winter wheat should be ready in about 3-4 weeks.and we havw extra fine cut choppers
