That roll pin holds the drive shaft for the augers. Actually the impeller floats on the splines. If it was into the housing, you may want to disassemble the auger drive box. There are thrust bushings in it.

I had mine out for repair, had a buddy of mine who builds driveshafts balance it on his driveshaft balancer.

Still available from cub, just go look it up. Hang on to your butt, it's pricy!

Yes, I'll go see if I can find the thread. Someone on here rebuilt his last winter. I think I may even have the spot bookmarked for where the splined bushing came from.
