Graeme 7 #1 Posted January 7, 2014 I bought this nice clean 78 blower model number 86-42st01 and one of the rollers that the chute spins on is long gone and has been replaced with a couple washers. I can tell you, the washers don't have the same effect as the rollers. They tend to bind. I looked up the part and it is part number 1973, which as far as I can tell has been discontinued. Has anyone found a suitable replacement for this part? I understand the thing to do is to upgrade the chute to the newer style with the gear driven chute rotator, but as it is I have enough into this machine and need for it to pay me back for little bit before I invest more into it. Thanks y'all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TT-(Moderator) 1,162 #2 Posted January 7, 2014 The newer short-chute throwers went to a spacer (bushing) under a flat washer. You can view it at the various parts look-up sites by using 06-42ST04 as the model number. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
