Welcome to the Gilson Snowblower Shop
For many years Gilson Brothers company built fine snowblowers that featured oil impregnated bronze liner bearings in the belt tensioning idler rollers. As an upgrade to improve reliability they developed a sealed bearing upgrade kit #89400. The OEM price of this kit has skyrocketed but we have been able to control the cost of our duplicate kit that we offer direct to you. All components are new and professionally produce. Installation instructions are included.
Gilson snowblower worm drive # 207291 or #742866. New Old Stock (NOS) never installed or used. This worm drive is used in many 4-speed 26 inch friction drive snowblower models. These machines were branded as "Gilson" and many of the brands shown below.

Note to buyer: Once installed, fill with SAE 30 non-detergent oil. Fill up to the small level check plug opening in the front.
