This parallel shaft gearbox conversion kit is a genuine OEM for John Deere solution designed to replace the factory chain drive system used on many John Deere snow blowers. It converts the blower from a chain-and-sprocket drive to a sealed parallel shaft gearbox configuration, reducing maintenance and eliminating common wear points associated with chains, sprockets, and tensioners.

All components included in this kit are genuine OEM for John Deere parts. This is not an aftermarket or reproduction kit. It replaces OEM part number AUC16953 and can be used in place of chain drive kits AM141407, AM141408, and AM121965. This conversion is commonly found on John Deere 47 inch and 54 inch snow blowers.
