Pulley hub is exactly what I needed.
The part was exactly what I needed and had my snow blower back together in time for all the snow we just received. Hopefully the hub is stronger than the original piece it came with.

Waiting for parts for more than two months is unacceptable!!!
They were new parts which were acceptable - the wait time for them were unacceptable.

Had to knock out the remaining part of the bolts that were stuck in the holes. So perfect was the break you could not even tell were the holes were. Had to pop them out with hammer and screw driver. Overall very easy fix and now it works like new!!!
The parts came fast and were exactly correct! This place is amazing! Easy to find the right parts too.

Unfortunately, the shear bolts I had bent as they broke, making their removal quite difficult. I finally got them out using a punch and a hammer. Once they were out, the new ones went in easily and bolted down fine.
Always order extras, just in case you need them. My order was processed and arrived quickly.

I found the sheered off bolt with the center piece still in the hole. I used a punch and hammer to tap it out. Once out, I placed the bolt through the hole and screwed the nut on the bottom with the aid of a socket and a wrench until tight. Next storm it was tested and worked perfectly. Very easy and straight forward.

1. Replace the shift rod.
2. Replaced the cable for the chute lock
I didn't refer to any instructions when attaching these parts, it was fairly easy to figure out just by looking at the parts and the snowblower. I did have to play around with the adjustment for the cable of the chute lock to get it to work properly. After about 3-4 attempts (about 20 minutes in total) I was able to get it just right.
