Thanks ,
Todays pic shows the new jd in the workshop for the very first time. I will install the linear actuator on the snowblower spout this weekend. They delivered my new tractor three weeks ago and I still have not used it , no snow. ?

What was your mini 4020 before it became a 4020? .... Looks nice.

Thanks ,
It started out as a old jd 430 , it has 1800 hours on it . It runs excellent !
Todays pics show the linear actuator installed and the control switch now in the dash .
I have a can of wax on the snowblower and today the tractor and blower will get a good waxing before it gets used.

switch installed in dash

Todays picture shows the snowblower that came on the jd 430 when I bought it a few years ago. I modified it to fit on my jd 455 . Now I will have to build new mounting brackets and modify the driveshaft to fit the larger 30 in. front tires.

will modify mounting brackets

I moved the 430 snowblower in the shop and see the stock driveshaft is not going to work. I will have to install a longer driveshaft and build new mounting brackets.

I have some extra driveshafts laying around
