Wondering if there's a gear box that will change counter clockwise rotation to a clockwise rotation.I have a older massey 1655 with a front mount snowblower and installed it onto my newer massey gc2300 to my surprise after taking time to make a quick hitch etc and install it onto the 2300 I found out that the blower turns backwards.So the only other thing I can do is see if there's such a thing as a gear box that will do that.The pto on the 2300 turns counter clockwise and the 1655 turns clockwise.So the only thing I can do is change the rotation to clockwise by using a gear box.I had thought about cutting the chute off and putting it onto the other side and change the augers from one side to the other but after changing the augers to push the snow to the center it still wouldn't work because they'd be trying to push the snow away from the blower rather then towards it.So anyone have any thoughts on what or where to get a gear box like that.Right now I mounted the blower back onto the 1655 so that if and when it snows I'll have a tractor to blow snow with.What I'am hoping is to beable to use the new one as I made a cab and put heater into the cab as well.The old 1655 has a cab but its not heated I've used it for years like that but like all of us it would be nice to sit in a heated cab .Thanks for any input as always Larry.

Hub City used to make PTO reversers but I don't think it is available any more. You might want to try searching for a used one.

Thanks for the info stonehaller I did get info from hub city and they have a gear box that will do what I need it to do.Its called a parallel shaft drive gear box so after getting all the measurements of the gear box I contructed one out of cardboard using the dimessions from hub city and sure enough It'll work for me as there's plenty of room for me to fit the gear box in the place where I need to.I'll put my order in for it on Monday.So I'am quite happy with it that I'll beable to make use of the snowblower that I have rather then have to put out big $$$ for another one.So anyone who needs to reverse direction can still buy a gear box to do this.Thanks again for the info.As always Larry.
