Replace both cogs and the belt with the stronger GT style, and also choose a wider belt. (Nevermind that I went with XL on my 9x20 leadscrew drive mainly because I already had a 22 tooth cog that fit the motor, and found a dirt cheap 44 tooth cog on jet.com )
Somewhere on the web are calculators where you plug in the belt style, center distance and drive ratio then it spits out belts and pulleys that will fit (or at least come close) to what will fit. For my leadscrew drive I had the center distance a bit off at 77mm. Thought I was going to need an idler (no prob since I have a couple of small XL pulleys) but the fit ended up perfect, have to install both pulleys and belt simultaneously. Of course I planned it that way...

It appears that I had already replaced the ultra teeny drive pulley that stripped the last belt easily had already been replaced with a 15 tooth model. So even with about 7 cogs fully engaged, this motor still had the cojones to strip the teeth off the belt. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What NetFlow Analyzer can do for you?
