R3 Performance Upgrade Kit - Questions (Snowmann??)
Original Message   Nov 1, 2011 2:45 pm
Hello, All -

While doing a bit of research online for maintenance info about my 2001 Ariens 824 Snowblower (Model #932100-000101), I've stumbled across this site/forum and have discovered a lot of good information and a weath of knowledge - which I'd like to tap a bit, if possible. 

What I'm hoping to learn is if there are any indivdiuals out there who can give me their $.02 about the available R3 performance upgrade kit (Part #53212100) and how difficult it is to install  - as well as if everything one might need in regards installing it (grease/lube??) is included (which, I assume, everything is).  I'll acknowledge that 'how difficult it is to install' could be a fairly tough question to answer based on ones ability, but I'm fairly apt and don't feel intimidated by the parts diagram or doing this kind of a project.

Overall, I ask as the local dealer for Ariens was, to be honest, less than helpful about anything related to this topic and it made me think that I could do this on my own.  Hopefully some of you have some insight, especially Snowmann, who appears, based on his employer, to be uniquely suited to these types of inquires.  The snowblower has performed wonderfully over these last 10 years and I know it has a lot of life left in it, but it is getting to the point where I know I need to do some maintenance beyond changing the oil and greasing it up!

Regards,

Lightning (White Bear Lake, MN)
