What will you be using this winter to clear the snow?

[flyovrcntry 115]

This is my new toy,as I said in a previous post I sold my GT14,so I had to get another tractor.I really like this 417-A,the ground speed is surprising.I pushed a little rock with it and there's plenty of power.I got my chains in the mail and am ready.

Our winters have been pretty mild,but they say this is going to be a bad one,or as some see it a good one'

BRING IT

Looks like someone plans to be putting a second set of rear tires on the rig...

Hi All,

 

In Vermont, all we need is snow

 

Here's our fleet of snow equipment, we're ready for anything!

 

I just repainted the hood on the C-85 and I'm really happy how it turned out.  I used PPG paint with a hardener.  The Vinyl Guy was a super help in getting the decals.  I plan on doing more painting in the spring after it warms up some.

I will be moving snow with my 1990 jeep wrangler equipped with a snoway plow

My 15 year old murray 10hp. snowblower

my just the other day aquired 416-8

 

and,,,,I just got back from a 402 mile round trip from carlisle, Pa. where i just picked up a 42 inch wide single  stage , short chute snow blower. the original owner had it with manuals. and he showed me that snowblower was $799.oo  dollars way back then.

That son of a gun is some heavy guage steel. Cant wait to mount it.

 

Dont ask for pics, cant do that yet.

MAN O MAN, you fellas posted some really cool pics of your snow gear. seems your ready to battle the white stuff and win.

 

question: I like the snow cabs, where do you buy them? I would like to investigate one for my 416-8. Seems that would complete my rig.

And if any of you have positive or negative comments on the snow cab, would like to hear about it. After all thats one GREAT thing about this forum, the accumulated knowledge helps us virgins make good decisions, thanks.

Cabs can be had off ebay, CL, or from the Original Cab Co.  I've never used a cab on a GT so I'm no help on the comments.  I would however like to try one, actually I would like to build a "hard cab", as a new cab, "soft" cab from OTC runs 8 hundy or so if I remember correctly.

My snowfighting equipment set up for this year's battle's!

 

The 1967 Wheel Horse Lawn Ranger, L-157 with the STR-324  32 inch Snowthrower

 

 

 

 

 

The 1963  Wheel Horse 633 with  BD-4262 - 42 inch Snowplow/Dozer Blade

 

 

 

 

 

 

[TT-(Moderator) 1,145]

I have the '83 GT-1848 set up with the blade this winter.

 

Patiently waiting to give the "new" Vanguard V twin a workout.

[Jim_M 178]

I use this one.

[fireman 1,022]

Here's what I use! It isn't red but plows and blows better then any Wheel Horse I ever owned. Can't beat the live hydraulics. I only wished the Ponds added them to their product line.

 

 

 

 

 

[RMCIII 838]

fireman - don't sweat it... Before I got the 518, I was also looking, at for a 318.....You can't beat the hydraulic couplers, front and rear, along with an option for 3pt. hitch.

[kaiser 100]

anyone want to buy a 1 year old ariens 30" snow blower? j/k

 

this was the first chance i had to plow with my 48 farmall cub (hey, at least it's red!) what a joy! i had so much fun plowing the neigborhood.

i'm still going to need the snowblower though, for those mornings when there's a foot or more on the ground, but that old cub is a ton of fun.

[specialwheelhorse 174]

Well I usually get smart about now and say my broom does the job here in Texas BUT after last weeks 4 inches of solid ice nothing would move that but the sun and even tho its been above freezing for four days its been 9 days now and there are a few patches left yet. Jim

[Charlie Smith 142]

I guess that's cheap on fuel as well.

I'm just getting to know mine, first year, but I can tell you exhaust fumes are an issue for me - and it doesn't help that I have asthma. It is nice to be out of the wind though. I wear a mask now to help with the fumes. I've thought about extending the exhaust up above the top of the cab - it may help.

[Jake Kuhn 1,573]

A little late to this thread, but finally got some good pics of my snow herd. Have a c141 with blower, 702 with blade, 401 with blade, and a 867 with grader blade. Whatever these can't handle my dad's 06 Silverado does. lol
