Toro 20334

Drive belts for the Toro 20334

Short answer

Belt 38991 in all three of the fourteen ranges we opened. The trap here is not the serial number — it is the mower standing next to yours.

What decides it

The numbers that matter here

Your model number, not your serial

20334 takes 38991; the 20339 takes 38990

The belt did not change across the three ranges we opened here. The front-wheel-drive 20339, which shares deck width and engine size, takes a different number.

Drive type

Rear-wheel drive, and Toro’s name for the belt says RWD

Deck width, engine size and deck material are the same on both mowers, so the drive designation in the belt name is what separates the two listings.

Belt dimensions

Not published by Toro

No figure to check a candidate against, so the number is the whole check.

In detail

Choosing drive belts for this mower

Toro lists 38991, named "22 inch Drive Belt for RWD Toro WPM", for the 20334 in all three of the ranges we opened. It did not change across them. Eleven of the fourteen we have not opened.

What does change the answer is which machine you are actually looking at. The 20339 is also a 22 in. Toro walk-behind, also on a Briggs & Stratton EXi of 163 cc, also with a 14-gauge steel deck — and Toro lists belt 38990 for it. One digit apart. Toro's name for 38991 carries the distinction: RWD, rear-wheel drive. The 20339 drives its front wheels.

The two machines are not identical — Toro's product pages differ on start type, wheel configuration and drive system — but they share the figures a shopper is most likely to compare: 22 in. cutting width, a Briggs & Stratton EXi of 163 cc, a 14-gauge steel deck. Read past those to the part number.

Toro publishes no length or width for either belt on the pages we opened, so there is nothing to measure a candidate against. That leaves the model number doing all the work.

We opened three of the fourteen ranges Toro publishes for this model.

The mistake we see most

Searching "Toro 22 inch drive belt", finding two results that look the same, and picking whichever is in stock.

Method

How we established this

We recorded the belt shown on Toro’s parts listings for model 20334 across the three ranges we opened, and compared it against the belt listed for the 20339 on the two ranges we opened for that machine. Both product pages were read to confirm each machine’s drive type in Toro’s wording.

    Toro’s official parts listing for the earliest of the three ranges we verified. Lists 20234 (Engine Maintenance Kit for Briggs & Stratton Engine) and 108-8120 (TRACTION ASSIST KIT [PPG2]). Also lists 38991, 59534P, 59502, 59503 and 490-7462. The range selector on this page names thirteen further serial ranges for the same model number.

    The later range. Still lists 130-8148 and 131-4590, so the maintenance kit does not change again here. It lists 137-4833P (8 Inch Front Wheel) and does not list 59502 — a second, separate boundary within the same model number.
