WHX?? 48,815 #36 Posted January 28, 2021 Nice Skippy . ..reminds me of the stock 520 I have with weights and chains I have up north by Eagle River. Weights make them look wider and chains make them dig to China! How's that Onan running? 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ironically for Wednesday Tractor Rides, it’s the best snow navigator in the herd! I believe we figured out it’s a 1956. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She’s just over 2-1/2 and lately the only way to get her to nap is on the “tractor ride”. That”s right, there’s no such thing as a tractor, they’re all tractor rides It’s so funny, or awesome, how so many people can find the enjoyment of tractors, from birth to death. Yesterday, we put on probably 7-10 miles during her nap, along a 1/2 mile stretch of road in the field. Nearly every vehicle that passed from cars to semis had a head turned or a hand waving. I’m sure most if not all of them had no idea what we were driving around, but watching a tractor in the field is just part of life! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although I'm late and they're history, here's my contribution of an old photo. If I may comment on tires to push snow, I have a set similar to pullstart's Post #2. Mine are 24x12-12 and they are useless and only fit my yellow machine. I once liked 23x10.5-12 Deestone Ags with premium chains but I now favor 25x10-12 ATV tires with low psi and a 4" pulley on the engine 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
