Chris G 3,296 #1 Posted November 27, 2018 Well going through Craigslist last night I came across a blade for $40!!!! So I went today and picked it up. Even came with the axle bracket. So I made a lift link and put it on the junkyard dog 702. Got to paint the link now but most of all i Can't wait to go play now. 3 6 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Razorback 1,035 #3 Posted November 27, 2018 “Can’t wait to go play now.” You sound like me..... (mind if I insert a story?) Several years ago, I finally bought a front blade for my Craftsman GT 6000....... of course AFTER we had 2 feet of snow fall in the course of 6-8 hours or so. After that, every time mowing season would end, I would rearrange my 4 GTs in the shed so that the GT 6000 could sit right in front of the doors, blade on, chains on, ready for action. Went two years or so that we didn’t have much snow to speak of, so next Spring, off with the blade, and rearrange again to have the mowing GT nearest the doors. Then...... One winter, we got 10” or so of snow at one time. Man, was I ready to go push some snow!!! Went out, cleared our driveway and sidewalk, neighbor’s drives and sidewalks, and even went up and down our street to make it better to drive on ( and I was having a blast!!!) Wife said she looked out the front window from the comfort of her wood-fired heat, and kept looking until she saw me go zooming down the street in front of the house. She figured I had a smile on my face and would come in when either I got cold, or ran out of snow to move. And, she told me later..... all she could think of as she saw me go by the house was...., “There goes Forrest Gump!!” 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LengerichKA88 1,883 #4 Posted November 27, 2018 That’s a nice score for 40 bucks! We got snow today, but it’s the kind that sticks to everything but the concrete 🙄 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
