Hello and welcome! yeah those blades can be kinda heavy to lift,I made a spring assist on my 1200 out of a piece of flat steel,angle iron a large spring from hardware store a J-bolt and a eye bolt and a couple of turn buckles. If I were you I would look for a spring assist for a wide frame, put a wanted add on here or check e-pay and around your local area. Or you could look for another cub wide hydraulics! You can't have to many cubs! I have a 1211 I'm going to use the push snow with from now on. Oh Wheres the pics?!..lol we wanna see your 1250!
