I recently picked up an 826 from my Brother in Law.  I have the front end disassembled and have decided to implement some of the changes discussed in this thread.  I am going to purchase the auger kit.  I have already done minor repairs to the auger where it was bent, probably from stones.  I would like to look for a replacement pulley that is either a 2.5/3 or even a 2.5/3.5.  Can anyone tell me the best way to find such an item.  My experience in the past is that to get a part you really need a part number.   I have picked up a couple of the auger bearings from JD and noticed they have changed a little.  They are a little longer now and have a grease seal on them.  maybe they will last a little longer.
