4310 Snowblower (front)

Thanks mopar.

Snowplow residue at the end of the driveway is no problem for me. I have a deep drainage ditch along the edge of the road. Virtually all of the snow from the plow goes in the ditch before it gets to the mouth of my driveway. If I can drive through the snow that's fallen, I can get out the end of the driveway with out clearing snow.

Do you use ballast weight on the rear with the snowblower installed?

Jeff,
I use a ballast box full of old weightlifting plates to counterweight the 59" blower. I additionally need and use chains fore and aft for traction on my steep drive.
