Gear Box Assembly for Ariens Model 924121
Original Message   Mar 2, 2010 3:33 pm
Hey all

Haven't posted  in quite some time but would appreciate some feedback.

Just  brought my blower to my ope dealer here  in my area ,  my gerabox is shot.

He is saying it's over 400.00  (Canadian Funds) he has to get it out of Montreal.  I know we pay more here in Canada for anything it seems,  but  does this sound about right ?

Thanks

Al

Just curious as to why the shear pins didn't do their job and prevent the gear box from getting torn up. Were the augers frozen on the shafts?

Good question and one that has me baffled as well.

I have had to replace a couple of shear bolts over the years and always use shear bolts , and I am diligent with maintanence like greasing the auger , so no issues there.

 I have no clue as to why this happened , and the day it did happen I assumed it was just a shear bolt ... Suprise!
