Thanks snowman, what does OD mean? Outside diameter or the seal? Thanks for the details. Mike

K, I may have answered my own question. They do not make that gear lube anymore unless you buy it online for 15 bucks! I will see what my local dealer sells the L3 for, if that will work in my machine. Any other parts I should be replacing once I start inspecting and rebuilding the front end of this machine? Mike

Cheers guys. Thanks for the advice much appreciated. I actually purchased an older Ariens ST724 as it was a great price in my opinion. It is in much better shape then the 926LE was. I put a post up on the main discussion page regarding the ST724 looking for some replies. I unfortunately bought the thing in the dark and did not notice a small up and down pulsating in the front auger so I am hoping to rebuild the front auger assembly all the way back to the pulley drive and that replacing bushings and such to clean it up and tighten things up a bit. We will see. Thanks again. Why does my post squish up into one big paragraph even though I make seperate paragraphs? Mike

Hey guys, I am trying to find the right gear case lube or proper substitute for this snow blower.  I just picked it up for a reasonable price.  I was originally looking at the 926LE but I decided it would be too big to get through my garage door into my back yard.  We will see.  I am confident that if I find the machine too small I can easily get my money back and go bigger.  Anyways,

It is a mid ninties machine model 932027 and the part number for the gear case lube is 00008100.  I can not find it online anywhere, wondering if there is a substitue I can pick up over the counter at my local automotive shop or Canadian Tire.

Also, the reason I want this is I would like to take apart the front auger assembly and check the auger shaft or shaft rake.  When the augers are running I notice the augers pulsating up and down with maybe about a half inch of movement.  I am thinking this rod may need to be replaced and I would like to do an inspection and just want the lube to rebuild the front.

Also any ideas on what to use for a new gasket?

Is it possible that this movement is normal for a snow blower of this year?

Thanks

Mike

Wow that is a great deal.  Sounds like too great a deal, almost like it could be a stolen unit, did you get a B.O.S or some kind of proof of purchase?
