Homemade Snowblower Tractor Drive System

The Drive System

My first snowblower donor had a chain driven reduction drive and the wiper was on the back which was problematic. It also had a shorter drive shaft and I wanted the tracking width to be as wide as possible.
5hp MTD snowblower drive system won't work for my needs.


Becuase of this I picked up a larger snowblower with a 10.5 hp engine. The wheels, driveshaft and drive system were larger. Perfect!

The drive selector was still on the rear, which makes sense for a snowblower, but not for the tractor. More on how I fixed that next.
This 10.5 hp snowblower drive system is just what I was looking for.
