Thanks guys! Nice machine, Cooperino! :beerchug:

Hey Allen.. I see you were wearing a T-shirt.. Must be nice. It is only 35 degrees here today.

It wasn't too bad, was around 51. Only in the 40's now with rain.

Backed the trailer up to the front porch to haul off drywall, insulation & an old bathtub.

Sharp machine, Adam!

Thanks Allen! It’s no diesel but it earns it’s keep. Lol

Very nice machine! Always admired that one!:beerchug:

New wheel weights and chains on Super #2
 

I put the 54" snow plow on 1872 #2 for snow relocation this Winter. This Super has 3 pt. and PTO so no convenient way to add weight w/o raising and lowering a weight box each time I raise or lower the snow blade. I decided to look for some wheel weights to add so that I reduce the tire spin and not ware out the new 2 link chains on my cement drive. It was rather depressing to see the steel weights (~29 pounds each) going for $150. plus and adding shipping on top of that. I spotted these MTD 50 pound weights on Amazon and free shipping at $126. plus tax to add a 100 pounds to the rear.

They fit up real tight on the Super wheels and not seated all the way into the wheel recess so the included threaded rod was too short for mounting. I used 10" carriage bolts to do the job - just right! Carriage bolt heads had to be ground down on one quadrant so they would clear the brake disk. Slip in the box said they are for 23" X 12". I'm real pleased with the way it turned out but surprised that mounting the weights was more involved than putting on the new chains today. A week ago I plowed 4" of the white stuff but it wasn't without a lot of tire spin, now I'm ready for snow.

Came home after work and used the 1650 with the leaf vac to clean up the yard. :beerchug:

Good work! I need to get the 1512 and sweeper out, if it doesn't rain this weekend.
