My GF 1800 lifts my mower with no problem. The snowblower that I just got weighs around 200 lbs . It will lift it but barely and the engine has to be rev'd up. Then I recently bought a B2160 front blade. It's pretty well built . Could not find out how much it actually weighs after searching...

So I just bought a GF5225 snowblower with a female quick hitch attached. I have no male quick hitch yet. The TG2742 was used on this mower using a subframe that bolted onto the blower. Will the subframe work on the GF5225 or is the frame of the blower not the same size. The subframe is...

So last year I bought a used Puma 720 made by Pronovost that operates at 540 rpm like all the rest. It blows the snow OK but I have to have my rpm's full throttle. I went to the Pronovost site and see they sell an excelerator kit that would increase the blower to 740 rpm's. This would allow me...

Over the winter I broke the eye off of one of the quick attach holders. I went to jdparts and was surprised at how reasonable the cost was to replace it. Then I picked it up and was disgusted. I can't believe they want me to put this on my nice 4410 tractor. Looks like somebody just cobbled...

Would I be giving up a lot of quality by buying a 6' 2004 Puma (made by Pronovost) used lightly for $1300 or a P620 Provonost used maybe twice for $2800. Is there a lot of differences in the 2 knowing that they are made by the same company. BTW the Puma weighs 430 lbs while the Pronovost...

Is there a way to find out how far a blower can throw snow. I once had a Kubota on a GF1800 lawnmower that threw it 30'. My JD front mount 359 on my 4410 isn't even close. Now as I shop for a rear blower I want one that will throw it a decent distance. Does a 4 blade throw further then a 3...

I have a front mounted snow/grader blade that is 66" wide and 18" high. JD want $1500 for a 7' blade that is still low. The mounting hardware is very heavy and I'm thinking of mounting a bigger blade, maybe even poly on it. Figure maybe check out the truck snow blades that are available. I...

Does anyone have any pics of this spreader with the deflector plates installed. I have the 1200S but I need to speed it up in order for sand to properly slide down the hopper. Because it will now throw the sand too far I need to install these deflector plates to reduce the coverage. Just...

I just spent $300 on chains for my tractor. They were at the widest setting with the valve stems on the outside. These chains are pretty beffy and they will not fit without hitting the fender . There is also linkage underneath that it will interfere with. I did reasearch before I bought...

I just bought a JD4410 with Power Reverse. I am new to these transmissions so I was wondering if the performance on mine is normal. I have the transmission in neutral and the forward/reverse lever in neutral as well. I depress the clutch , select the range (A, B, or C) , find a gear between...

I have been shopping tractors and finally found the one . Unfortunately it has no mid pto . The John Deere parts website says the kit (LVB25291) is no longer available. This is very upsetting since I had all kind of plans to mount a front snowblower. Can anyone direct me to where I "might" be...

Can I install a PTO mid mount kit on my JD3720.

Last year I basically ruined the gear box on my blower. This is the one that is mounted right in the intake and where the augers are driven from. The pto shaft comes out of the fan to this gear box. I had all the correct shear pins in place but when I took this box apart I found no oil and...

I know there's always lots of opinions on what the best way to get rid of that white stuff is. Here's my problem. I have a 20 HP JD 750 with a 7' rear blade on the back. I have a 359 snow blower on the front. My road which I plow (about 1 mile long) has lots of loose gravel and rocks in the...

Will a JD 359 fit a 755? I have a guy who wants to buy a front snowblower for his 755. What is the difference between a 359 and a 59" snowblower. Serial number for the 359 starts with MO359 while the 59" starts with MO275. Any ideas. If you have a 755 what snowblower do you have. Thanks for...

I have a JD359 blower mounted on the front of my JD 750 tractor. I noticed recently that the blower tends to push a lot of the snow in front of it rather then sucking it into the unit. The fan turns in the correct direction as it is pretty obvious. Is there a way that the auger could be...

Well, the snow is gone and I decided to tear apart my front blower and get it tuned up for next year. One of the most damaged areas was the blower cage. May not be the proper name but the area where the snow is picked up by the impeller and thrown out the top. Looks like those rocks have done a...

We have had little snow and the ground is not frozen. My snowblower shoes are digging into the gravel on my driveway with this mornings 4" of snow. The obvious solution (in my mind) is to increase the size of these shoes. Are there any other ideas that work better. How big would these shoes need...

Looking to buy a JD 4300 with 430 loader but it has over 1400 hrs on it. Is this too many and am I buying someone else's problems. Granted it would be nice to buy newer but sometimes it isn't in the budget. What ballpark price would be reasonable for a 2001. Thanks

Lots of feedback on snow removal and what seems best. I also prefer a front mounted blade versus a blower because of the gravel and rocks on my laneway. Curiously the front blade on my JD 750 does not have any downpressure because of the length of the hydraulic cylinder. It "just" stays off the...

I have been looking at buying a 25-35 HP 4WD JD tractor with a quick attach loader that I can attach a front blade. Is it me or are the prices down south a lot more reasonable then in Canada. Even with the exchange rate and taxes it seems a better deal to shop south of the border. Any thoughts...

I just purchased a used snowblower. It is a Mini Blizzard and a George White plate on it. I guess they are not affiliated with the Rad Technologies who also call theirs a Blizzard. Model # is 90886F Serial # 64100 Any idea where I could buy parts like a new fan and auger. Any help out there...

Gentlemen: I have a JD 750 (about a 20 HP) tractor I am using to keep my 2 km driveway clear. It has a areas of gravel, crushed limestone , and some soft sandy areas . This time of year there are ruts and potholes. I have a rear grader blade that I used for the snow along with a snowblower once...

I just bought a used blade for my JD 750. The rear support bracket is missing. Can no longer be ordered from JD. Part number is PT5153. How can I get one made when I don't really have one to go by. Does anyone out there fab old JD parts and can they make this for me. Appreciate any help or...

I have a front mount GF1800. Is there anyone out there that has seen a bucket or something similar that would mount on these front mount mowers for hauling small amounts of debris? Has anyone built one himself?

If you happen to have any experience in snowblowing with a GF-1800 please e-mail me. I just purchased one with a snowblower rather then a blade and wondered if I made the right decision. Thanks

Is 1600 hrs on a GF1800 a lot. Would it shortly need some repair work or do they last a lot longer if taken care of. What is the price of a good used GF1800. Thanks.
