Yea Baby Bring on the Snow

[Timber]

LOL just kidding I have way to much to do outside. Best way to guaranty no snow is to have a snow blower. I just converted my lawn tractor over. I love this thing best snow blower I ever had

Very cool setup. We were just looking out the window wishing it would snow, but alas, just rain.

Hmmmmmmm,

Two wheel drive and no Ags or Chains.......I could feel another tire debate going even if its a lawnmower...... Wish I had one of those babies. I sold my 12 HP snowblower and now use my Quad to plow with. If it gets real deep I pull out the Kubota and move some of it out of the way..

Do you have a mid-mount PTO on that thing??? How does it work?? Details on the conversion/modification please. That looks like something I may be interested in doing to my lawn tractor if possible.

If the rain that we have received today was snow, we would be buried in blizzard conditions for a week. Glad that it is rain, not snow.

LOL yea I haven't chained her up yet I also have a ballast block for the back. It will walk through a foot of wet snow as fast as I can drive.

This is a belt drive set up and uses the same PTO as the mower deck. I have a very long drive and it works very well. The soft cab mounting plate is also the mounting plate for the ballast. This is a 42 inch blower and it mounts on the front bumper pins.



It is a little hard to see but there are 2 pins the bumper bracket mounts on and then ther are 2 spring loaded U pins that lock it in.




When you drop the mower deck you mount a pulley plate in its place. The snow blower is an MTD and is universal with all kinds of lawn tractors

Last year we had nearly 1/2 inch of snow....and it lasted nearly an hour before turning into slush.....A real PITA....

Morning Timber.
Nice looking setup,and w/the last couple years of snow dumping on you folks down there,you just might be getting phone call or two to lend helping hand.

Timber, You are fully prepared there for you probably won't get ANY. My snowblower is still buried in the barn so I am tempting fate. I am Thankful for the mild fall because as usual I got a late start of overseeding (middle of October) It is up but the milder it stays the better chance it will have. Hey we were at the Jersey shore this weekend. It was beautiful 60 degrees there were kids in swimming.

I think the snow missed its mark Timber, but if your still of a mind to try it out, come on down.
