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 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.

I didn't realize you were in Norway.  Cool!

You are probably going to have kit on yours before I am. :-) 

I am curious if dimensions are the same on you kit.

Here are rough specs on mine:

Belt Diameter:  5/8 inch / 1.5875 centimeters
Pulley Diameter:  ~3.622 inches / 9.2 centimeters

HTTPs://ouppes.com

The Pulley Diameter on mine is 89mm. Part # 532 42 64-92

I still have to wait 3-4weeks before i get my snow thrower. I ordered mine from Amazon for $1283 with free super saver shipping.

It`s now on a boat over the Atlantic on its way to Europe and Norway.

The snow thrower will cost me about  $1950 total with norwegian tax and for the shipping over the Atlantic.

But`s that`s cheep, as almost the same Husqvarna model ( same spec) here in Norway called ST276EP  cost $3900.

No kidding! Is that crazy or what? The local dealer got a shock when i told him the reason for why i ordered the parts(impeller belt/pulley),

since the norwegian ST276EP have hi speed impeller standard. "Have you ordered a husqvarna snow thrower from USA" shaking his head like he

tought i was crazy. That was untill i told him i got it delivered at my door for $1950. He mumbeled something about

him not even getting it for so low cost into his store from Husqvarna Norway.

Notice "NO HQV" on the impeller pulley plastic bag, stands for Norwegian Husqvarna. Still made in USA. (bottom left, under the barcode)

REMHJUL stands for Belt Pulley
