The Honda 23433-VA3-J52 Third Driven Gear (27T) is a genuine OEM replacement built for HR195, HR215, and HRA215 lawn mowers. Sourced directly from Honda, this gear is manufactured to the same specifications as the original and carries the correct 27-tooth count to maintain proper drive ratio in the mower's transmission. This part is a direct drop-in replacement that restores proper self-propelled drive function without the need for modification.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Gear Integrity — the correct 27-tooth count is factory-specified; an incorrect tooth count changes drive ratio and self-propel speed, making an exact OEM match essential
- Direct Transmission Fit — engineered specifically for the HR195, HR215, and HRA215 drivetrain, this gear meshes with mating components as Honda designed
- Verify by Serial Number — Honda updates transmission components at production breaks, so confirm your mower's serial number against the fitment table before ordering
- Restored Drive Performance — a worn or chipped driven gear causes slipping, grinding, or complete loss of self-propel engagement; replacing it returns smooth, consistent propulsion
The Third Driven Gear (27T) is a core component of the HR-series mower's gear-driven self-propel transmission. It meshes with the drive train to transfer engine power to the rear wheels, and its 27-tooth count determines the final drive ratio — setting how fast the mower moves under propulsion. When this gear wears, chips, or loses teeth, the result is slipping or loss of forward drive entirely, turning a self-propelled mower into a push mower at best and creating erratic, uncontrolled drive engagement at worst. Replacing a damaged gear with the correct Honda OEM part restores the transmission to its original operating condition.
