john Deere 2320 noisy snowblower?

[Labrat]

The pillow block came from thebigbearingstore.com for less than $30. the cv joint is a reman out of a late 90's dodge colt $35 on fleabay. I did use the original drive shaft. cut the U joint off machined the cv joint and driveshaft yoke to slide into each other then welded it together..
The bearing fits perfectly over the driveshaft stub so no machining there. I made the mounting bracket and mounted it so it doesn't interfere with the mower deck so it doesn't need to be taken off in the summer.

If I did this attachment correctly it has the pics of my driveshaft.

Would you consider selling a setup? I assume it would be the same as a 2210
Can't stand the vibration much longer on mine

Converted mine over to a CV joint and it is now as it should have been built by John Deere. I would have expected better from them.
Thanks to Labrat's design it's a keeper again.
