Snow Your NEXT Snow Removal Setup

   / Your NEXT Snow Removal Setup #11  
I'm good with what I have, a JD430 diesel LGT with a cab, chains, 300 lbs of rear weights, and 47 blower for anything over a couple of inches of snow, and a Kubota BX2230 with loaded rear tires, MMM and an FEL for light snow and scraping down to the asphalt on the drives.

Got to use both of them today!

I’m happy with my cab tractor and the nice heat. I would like to try a front mounted snowblower.

I’m gonna add removable wings on the bucket and put hydraulics on the back blade for next winter (or sooner if time permits)

Please post that project. I’d like to see how that comes together.

Currently have a ROPS B2650 with a Meteor rear mount 6 foot blower and the loader bucket. Every time we get enough snow to use the blower, I am more than happy to get out there and play. It's been very good to me with every snowfall we have had, even the heavy wet ones.

IDEALLY, and with my dream coming true, it will be eventually, will have a 5 foot front mount blower and 6 foot offset rear blade. The 5 foot blower for the good snow falls, and the 6 foot offset rear blade for those couple inches that I can't be bothered to blow.

I totally agree on the hydraulics for the rear blade angle. PIA to have to exit the cab to change, although it's easy to do.

NICE, clean little ARTICULATED Wheel Loader. Hard to find older ones that nice. Did they have a torque converter?

I’m currently plowing with a an L3200 that you said you’d be interested in. I recently posted a video of it pushing 12” of snow with an underslung plow setup. 3 storms later and it’s still doing great! Sure is quite a bit quicker than my bucket. I will certainly upgrade to a larger machine with a cab at some point, but I won’t part ways with my plow setup. I’m entertaining a specific type of commercial plowing and may end up buying a second machine instead of upgrading my current. That machine will have a snowblower of sorts. :)

Second this. I watched a few dirt ninja videos of his wheel loader plowing setup. I kept thinking “this is next level sh**”. When he inverted his wings to squeeze in a dumpster opening to allow him to pull the snow out, I was speechless.
