Easy Peasy Lemon Squeazy DIY Snowblower Impeller Kit 

not a bad idea. i'm fixing up an old snowblower and i may give this a shot myself

I like that brake rotor trick..I might try that as I have same issue when I install my cab. FYI - I find the best product to spray on the chute and impellers etc.. is the all temp spray on ski and snowboard wax. I find that The cooking oil spray starts to thicken and solidify when it gets too cold. Cheers!

The clearance is left by design to allow small things like sticks and stones to pass through without breaking anything. Also with such relaxed tolerances in the impeller area there's lots of room for error when assembling.

Probably some bigger washers would help prevent the rubber from tearing. Looks like the rubber is compromised because the nuts are so tight...

Great video. You can also use MTD 735-04033. You can find it on Amazon and other places. pre-cut length and holes. $15.30 for a pair on Amazon

I put an impeller kit on my blower what a difference

My guess for the reason they don't do this from factory is cost and replacement. These will eventually tear apart causing other issues.

I put mine on after the first use of my troybilt 2410 10 years ago and never looked back! The very first time I used mine it was wet. Clogged every 15 feet. Like injecting steroids into your snowblower! Mine will damn near pump water! Lol. And throws the snow almost twice as far. Hasn't clogged since, almost 11 years now. I made mine from materials i bought at tractor supply. 💯🔥💪🇺🇲

Suck, squeeze, bang, blow ... is the steps for a turbine engine!

Dry lube it LOL cooking spray
