Quote HistoryQuoted: The pic is from 4-5 years ago. I can’t remember how much snow we got that year but I could walk up on the roof of my garage. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/196752/B41C64D2-C99E-46EB-B392-8B706E46120B_jpe-2645613.JPG I had access to a D6 to keep my driveway clean but shoveling around the house sucked. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/196752/F3DD1EAE-937B-48B2-867A-7ED4CD033044_jpe-2645620.JPG https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/196752/144E0E1E-5019-4FCE-AEA7-6A99916DF3D5_jpe-2645621.JPG Summer pic for reference: https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/196752/3E781233-0184-4E51-9123-C396ED5A430E_jpe-2645624.JPG The snow slides off the metal roof and piles up which makes it worse for keeping the access clean. That looks like a really nice place. I'm jealous. I should just move to where I want to live. Oklahoma in the rear view mirror. |

I have this little guy — a John Deere 445 with the 46” blower. All hydraulic, it’s like a big little tractor. I have tons of attachments for it, hydraulic blade, mower deck, carry all, etc.

I just shovel or sweep it and take my time. I got it done even in the -17 yesterday. Driveway. sidewalks, back patio and walks. It was cold though!

 Attached File1967 Kaiser Willys M715. The guy who sold it to me owned a trucking/equipment company. He converted it to 12V, put in a 350 Chevy v8, TH350 transmission, power steering and brakes, and the snow plow. It’s geared 5.87 and it does a fantastic job clearing my driveway in heavy snow. I had a brake line bust, I think I’m gonna have to bite the bullet and buy a fabbing kit and make all new lines, the originals are finally giving up the ghost. |

Also the pre-bent kits don't always fit correctly. I have experience with that as well. The hubs, wheel cylinders, drums etc were rebuilt in 2015 when I bought it—everything in the wheels was brand new. The lines and fitting from the master cylinder back were redone at some point—I think when he did the conversion back in the 70’s. I’ve only driven it on my property, so only a few hundred miles doing chores etc. But I think I’ll buy the bending/flaring kit etc and just go from the master cylinder on back. I recently spent a couple weeks fabbing lines in our lab (oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen etc) and got a pretty good feel for it. |

Big ag tractors with back-blades.
Deere front end loaders. Kubota tracked skid steers. JCB Robot with a hydraulic snow-thrower attachment. That thing is tits!!! Throws snow 30 yards easily. Yamaha Rhino with a 6' blade. If I don't feel like screwing with it I just text my landscaper and he sends one of his guys in an F350 to plow it. |
