littleredrider 409 #1 Posted February 10, 2021 What size are the e-clips on the front hitch? It holds the locking part when pulley or snow blower is on. I forgot to measure before I left the house. Lost both of mine, blower tends to sit funny. Looks like a 1/4” maybe? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

littleredrider 409 #4 Posted February 11, 2021 they were 3/8". At only $.34 each, I got 4 lol. Least now the snow blower sits sorta level and not chewing the belt... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

littleredrider 409 #7 Posted February 16, 2021 Dunno how the came off, but they did. Was getting ticked cause it would flip the belt, partially shredding it. Can't really notice it when the blower is down, but up it sits crooked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RJR49 138 #8 Posted February 17, 2021 I always called them C-clips. No matter I'm going.to gave look and see where mine are. BTW my pullys weren't lined up? Bad for the belt. So I fab'ed a .230 to bushing to replace the original. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
