Hi!

Does anyone now if this Hi Performance Impeller Kit Part# 532187724 fit my new Husqvarna 15530SB-LS?  I am not sure if this kit will fit because it is a new model for 2009 and i think older huskys used the Tecumseh engine and mine has a 15.5 B&S Snow Max. Do they have same drivshaft dimensions so same pulley`s can be used on both engines. Or is it other reasons why this won`t work? I think this kit will give me the same performance as the PRO series huskys that have HIGH SPEED IMPELLER? The only difference i`ve found in the 15530SB-LS and 16530SB-XLS part`s is the impeller pulley and impeller belt. Am i far of?

I got the deal I did through some liquidator who was probably clearing out inventory of some unfortunate dealer who wasn't able to make it in the current economy. I am going to put the Clarence kit on mine as well. Geronimo332 wrote:

My past mods have been as follows:

Past Mods:

-Hour meter/tach


-Wire looming cabling


-Auger bearings



-Retainer clips added to drift cutter thumb screws (prevent loss)


-Poly skid shoes


Here is my pending mod list:

-Husqvarna High Speed Impeller Kit (larger auger pulley & wider diameter belt)
(Pictures above)

-Clarence Impeller Kit


-B&S fuel shutoff valve (mine didn't come with one but easy to add)

-Chute deflector extension (you may already have this on yours)

Wow, snowmachine!

You are sure dedicated!

Thanks a lot! Some nice mods there. Im sure gonna copy some of them.

-I already got the hour meter/tach, just ned installing.

-Wire looming cabling, is that to prevent snow and moisture? Sure looks sweet. I might add that mod as well.

-Auger bearings, (original equipment)

-Retainer clips added to drift cutter thumb screws, that mod is in the plans.

-Poly skid shoes. Looks damn good! Where did you buy them?

-Husqvarna High Speed Impeller Kit  and the Clarence Impeller Kit  is in the mail.

-B&S fuel shutoff valve, was alredy installed on mine. Nice to have for safety when not in use. In case of carburator overflow!

-Chute deflector extension (you may already have this on yours), yes this was standard.

- I am thinking about the Auger Weight kit as well, what do you think about that?

• I put wire looming in there for some moisture intrusion as well as abrasion.  A lot cheaper to replace the looming than the cabling.
Although it is under warranty I was looking at the long term.

• I got the Poly slide shoes off of Amazon

• I'm still thinking about the auger weight kit.  I think mine could use a little more weight in the front.

Nice mods.Ater you get that  clarence impeller kit  and high speed impeller on,let us know how much of an impact it had on snow throwing distance.Hey some people r car crazy,u r snowblower crazy lol....nice work.

I read somewhere on  the internet, one guy who was thinking about installing two auger weights on top of eachother. Just getting longer bolts. c,")

Thanks!

I will report back on distance.... I think that is going to be quite noticeable. 

I thought about adding on heated hand grips but I'd have to modify the electrical on the motor..... Maybe next year :-)

I wonder how much weight each bar adds?  Is your intake 30 inches wide as well?

A fairly thick piece of steel with this Toro accessory.   Still looking for a picture of the Husky version. I saw one last year.



This Ariens ones is 10lbs.  The Toro one above almost looks 3x thicker so maybe 30lbs?

Got my impeller pulley and belt today.

Had to order the parts for the Husqvarna 16530SB-XLS that has "high speed impeller " as standard,

 since Jack`s Small Engines didt have the Hi performance kit in stock.

So i just ordered the parts from a shop here in Norway.
