I have a post hole digger with a Comer gearbox T 4-D I am looking for a replacement auger. Can anyone help? me find one?

Thanks very much!

What size and style (round, hex, etc.) is the connection ?

I have a PHD with the Comer gearbox also. Mine takes the standard round auger and attaches with 2 staggered bolts. I forgot the shaft diameter but mine has a sleeve that goes on the shaft first then the auger goes on. I replaced the bearings and seals in mine. I took mine out and went to my local Kaman bearing dealer and ordered them. PTO U-joints I got at local TSC store.
Go to worksaver.com and download the specs and repair parts sheet for model 500 PHD. I think the augers are the same that TSC sells. Mine is a 9" auger and I haven't needed a larger one yet.

Thank you. I think the crucial part is that you have a sleeve on the shaft to increase its diameter so it will fit your auger. This is my issue.

Shaft out of the gearbox is round, offset pins (bolts) 1-1/2" outside DIA of the shaft

Round, 1-1/2" outside DIA shaft with 90 degree offset pins, bolts.

If you download from the site I provided look at the gearbox repair parts page. Item #18 is the sleeve (they call it a bushing) and is availailable to slide over your 1 1/2" shaft to accept standard round augers.

Hi, went to this page http://www.worksaver.com/images/manuals/phd500ws.pdf and identified part 18 #171024, called them, $100 for the 'collar'. Which I would buy, but want to make sure it in fact will fit and work. Worksaver parts person was unable to give me any dimensional details for this piece.

Anyone have one that could give me measurement?

When I get home this afternoon I'll take the auger off mine and get the measurements of the sleeve and some pics.
