The Honda 23463-736-000 Countershaft Second Gear (27T) is a genuine OEM replacement designed for HS55, HS70, and HS80 two-stage snow blowers. As a direct Honda OEM component, this gear is manufactured to the exact tooth count and dimensional specifications required by the original drivetrain, ensuring proper mesh and engagement with mating gears in the transmission. This part fits HS55, HS70, and HS80 snow blowers — confirm your machine's serial number against the fitment table before ordering, as Honda supersedes drivetrain components at specific serial breaks.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Tooth Geometry — sourced directly from Honda, this 27-tooth countershaft gear is cut to the exact profile required for correct mesh, load transfer, and shift feel in the second-gear position
- Direct Drivetrain Replacement — replaces the original gear in the countershaft assembly without modification, restoring proper second-gear function to the transmission
- Fits HS55, HS70, and HS80 Two-Stage Snow Blowers — engineered specifically for these Honda two-stage models; check your serial number against the fitment table to confirm the correct application
- Serial Number Verification Recommended — Honda updates transmission components across production runs, so matching your machine's serial number to the fitment data is the surest way to confirm this is the right gear for your unit
The countershaft second gear is a key component in the snow blower's transmission, sitting on the countershaft and engaging with the drive system to deliver the correct gear ratio for second-speed operation. When the operator selects second gear, power flows through this gear to move the machine at the appropriate ground speed. A worn, chipped, or broken gear causes rough shifting, loss of second-gear engagement, or grinding — symptoms that reduce control and leave the machine unable to clear heavy snow efficiently. Replacing this gear with a genuine Honda part restores smooth, positive gear engagement and gets the snow blower back to full working order.
