Just thought I'd pose the question, "what do you use for snow clearing?" I was thinking about the other day while cleaning up our 3rd big snow dump this winter... Feel free to post up some pics of your tractors, snow plows, snow blowers, or ...really fancy ...shovels? :shrug:
Here's what I use:
1970's Simplicity 3416 hydro. Swapped in a 10 hp Yanmar clone diesel a few years ago. the plow is off of a 1960's Sears Suburban. The orange brick out back is a welded steel box filled with lead shot. Works good enough although plow is meant for dirt, and with no trip springs I've almost flew over the hood when hooking a driveway crack at speed :doah:
I also use this Simplicity snow blower, it's also of 70's vintage. It now has a 7hp clone engine. Pretty bare bones, but it's tough, ate a frozen phone book once.
