Re: GX335 54" deck and 42" snowthrower
That just made my day, I was moving a few stones with the small trailer yesterday and going over a few hills the front end of the snowthrower was scraping the grass and I was saying a few more inches would have cleared it. I adjusted the deck to zero and that allowed me to tighten up the yolks to where they were when I got it and in turn raised the front to 6 or 7 inches, yahoo!! Thanks Thanks and Thanks again!

Re: GX335 54" deck and 42" snowthrower
Is there any way to find out if the tire chains are the right size, I can't seem to fit them onto the tires I have. I'm not sure if the tractor it came from had the same size tires, they seem to be short by 2 horizontal chains. I imagine I could just add two rows but maybe it's better to get new chains. The tire size is 24 x 12 - 12
We had some snow today, and got to try out the thrower, it seems to be working well but it would have worked a lot better with the chains, lucky there wasn't too much snow, only a few snow drifts where I could use it on and I had to have some speed or it would just spin out, I can see it working very well with the chains.Last edited by avar; 12-22-2012 at 09:40 PM.

If I still had them, I would get you a measurement, but unfortunately I don't. I can tell you this, once you do get a pair of chains on, and with enough weight on the rear, that tractor will pretty much get you through any size storm. I had the two wheel weights and 4 suitcase weights on a weight bracket. That was more than enough.
