450 snowblower auger gear stripped
Last Tuesday was blowing a heavy wet snow only 8", did my drive fine. Went to neighbors and got almost done and the augers quit spinning. Figured just need a shear pin. Saw they were fine so hooked up the snow plow to the 102 and got the other drives done. Just took the auger gearbox apart today, worm gear appears to be aluminum. I had it filled with EP-O grease, is there a better option for these gears?
