I am looking for the belt diagram for the Drive Belt for a 1975 100 Lawn Tractor. I bought one in pretty good shape, just needed the Carb cleaned and some other small things. Not mint condition but a work in progress. Also would like to know of any sites to get parts, or if anyone has parts for this tractor. I pulled the belt from the engine to the transmission off and cant figure out the route to put it back, I'm sure it is simple, I'm just missing the boat some how.

Tim, Welcome to WFM.
you have found the site for all the parts and info you will ever need on your 100
My first advice is to buy a service manual, in the want ads section you can post for all the parts you need and someone will have what you need. I personally have 2 100's plus a parts machine
I do not know the proper routing for the belt off the top of my head but I am sure someone can help you

Welcome, Tim! There are two belts for the drive, one for eng. to intermediate drive sheave, one from there to the tranny. In addition to the service manual, get registered with JDParts online. You will find that in many cases a question can be answered just by looking at the parts diagrams.
No so with your question now, however. If you have a good dealer near you, they may have a picture of the belt routing that they can print off for you. They have access to things we can't get to thru JDParts.
For some reason, I have no photos of the front (engine) belt. Only thing I have is this one showing the rear belt and springs. What is unusual is the belt runs on the "V" side of a flat idler (shown) and on the other flat idler it is on the flat side of the belt, which is normal.
If you or a friend has a 70 lawn tractor you could take a look at it. The belt routing is very nearly the same, maybe identical.
Get new belts from Deere to avoid a lot of problems if replacements are needed.
Have fun with the 100.
