TT-(Moderator) 1,162 #2 Posted August 28, 2009 It's probably an ST-376 or a 6-1211. Bearings can usually be matched in the aftermarket if you can find someone at a decent parts store who knows what they're doing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
can whlvr 994 #3 Posted August 28, 2009 thanks tt that helps alot,the bearing shop we have is pretty good at trying to match up stuff,it is a small place in the middle of nowhere so they try hard,it is a long drive to be told go to the dealer thanks again.

can whlvr 994 #4 Posted September 1, 2009 Here are some pics of the rebuild of my blower that TT helped me id,thakyou this saved me hours looking at toro pics and diagrams,i got all the bearings and plates for it ,they are not exactly oem,but with the new bearings you buy the matching plates that hold them in,it was only 40 dollars,so i treated some of the girls to new front wheel bearings.The partsco also carries the idler sprockets for the chain also.

nylyon-(Admin) 7,880 #6 Posted September 1, 2009 I fixed it. After each picure you paste, press the enter key once or twice, this will separate your pictures properly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doubletrouble 10 #13 Posted September 28, 2009 i like the little "ski's" that are on it. Mine has metal wheels to keep the auger from engaging the ground. I want to make skis for mine since I have a gravel driveway. Don't want to pich stones through the windows!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
