Excellent links , and ideas are now sprouting from my ears . I like the front box setup with the trip lever to dump it , and those rippers on a manual 3 point hitch would be very handy . I did notice he was spinning the tracks a few times ... traction is still my biggest problem . -- Snag |

I did notice he was spinning the tracks a few times ... traction is still my biggest problem . Thought that was the kind of stuff you were looking for. The trip box looks like a decent/simple way to add a sorta bucket to your blade. I have a do-it-yourself neighbor with small John Deere garden type tractor. A bit bigger and newer than yours. He has added a weight box to the back for plowing snow using his front blade. Heavy snow last week gave it a work out. He has to plow/push cross-ways in the deep stuff but he does get his long driveway cleaned out eventually... Their kit machine (RS196k) only uses two rippers. The prebuilt RS1000 can use three, or so they think. Cute machines but way out of my price range... I do like the simple implement designs though ![]() -- Leon Fisk Grand Rapids MI/Zone 5b Remove no.spam for email |
