I’m planning on an upgraded thicker one, along with a couple things like shift kit, maybe the Corvette servo. This truck is just a 1/2 ton, but I really enjoy the way it drives and pushes snow. I’m now out of the commercial business, but would like to have it for my driveway, grandparents, elderly neighbors... 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 62,834 #18 Posted January 21, 2021 Only took 20 days to prove my theory wrong... I loaded up Jane today to go scrape my Aunt-in law’s driveway and mailbox area... but slipped and was on the ground watching her come back on top of me before I realized what happened. After righting me and Jane, I slipped her in 1st and pushed her up the snowmobile ramps. Still got the job done, and all my bones and blood are still inside, so all will be well soon. 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You used tie-downs! I'm impressed! I guess you took enough chances hauling a Tecky over there expecting it to run! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
