In 2005, we used a van door motor (powerful) to drive our arm's elbow, and a window motor as a 'brake' to prevent backdrive.

This is very interesting, I hadn't thought of pairing a high power motor with an anti-backdrive motor to get the best of both worlds. I remember a good post by Paul Copioli awhile back on pairing dissimilar motors that I'll have to find.
Does anyone happen to know if the snowblower motor has locking or anti-backdrive pins in it? I don't have one to inspect. I know that the window motors do for sure.
