Bolens 800 Transmisson Repair

if you are using it for plowing, I would recomend getting a rear/trans out of a 1050 or simler with the hi/low gears. I have seen 1050's for a couple hundred bucks that ran and worked, so you could get something like that to plow and use the 800 for cutting grass or other work that is not that hard on the gears. I have a 750 that I tried using for tilling...I was constantly clutching it and stripped the gears in the rear. I bought a 1050 with the hi/low trans, what a differance. if you wanted to fix it, I would grind the key way a bit bigger and put a bigger key in it, of course you would have to grind the other part to fit, if you drill out a hole in the part the key that holds the key in you could put a set screw in there to hold the key in tight. you could also drill the shaft if it isn't to hard of steel and put a bolt through it. ggod luck dt
