  • Model 79361 44" snowthrower, Impeller

    To All, I recently picked up a 79361 44" 2 stage snow blower and when cleaning it up I found the impeller to be in very rough shape. Surprisingly the housing is in good condition. My plan was to disassemble the auger system and remove the impeller and bearing to see if I could resurrect the impeller. It looks like it will take a lot of work to get the arms heated and bent back into the original position, not to mention maybe adding some material on the leading edge of the impeller arms. I am looking for a good impeller and while I'm at it see about replacing the auger end brass bearings with real ball or roller bearings. I never stop upgrading, I am also looking for the center support for the gear case assembly to the upper housing to relieve some of the gear case movement. I had seen photos of such a bracket system on other blowers but no idea if someone has put together a kit or it is a do-it-yourself bracket assembly. I would sincerely appreciate any input from members who might have a good impeller for sale and or any knowledge of installing auger bearings and possibly the support for the gear case. At any rate, Merry Christmas to all and Happy Holidays to those who prefer the latter. Best regards, Anvil

    I just rebuilt mine and used the same plain bearings on the ends.  If you oil them after they are dry they will run for a long time.  You would do well to replace all of the bushings and seals in the gear case with parts from McMaster-Carr.  The end bearings I found on eBay for a good price.  If you go to the bearing manufacturers website you will see that they were offered in a version that had a grease fitting and that is something I should have added.
