Default Sears snowblower

Bought a single stage blower from Sears last year (fall 06) used 1 winter
Now I noticed that the auger has no more rubber at ends of blades. Is this
much wear normal? or was I over estimating the amt. of rubber on the unit.
Sears has no part# for the rubber paddles .

Im sure there is a replacement, but it may also be you for abusing the
unit, the Rubbers last.

You guys are probably right. Don't know how but it must be something I am
doing differently than with my 30 yr. old Toro that still has rubber. Only
change is new drive (concrete maybe to deep a brush finish.
Thanks again Frank
