Took the mower deck off the 1973 John Deere 110 and attached the snowblower.
Now ready for winter - bring on the snow.

Yep. We put the plow and spreader on the old GMC at work. It don't look
like much, but it's amazing what a cam can do for a work truck. =)

Can a storm be officially designated as a tornado without touching down at
a trailer park?

Or most any vehicle for that matter. I'm putting my blade on the truck
next week..time has come.

I swapped plenty of cams in cars, when I was younger. But, this one
suprised me. I never thought of hopping up a work truck. *shrug* Plus, they
just spent a small fortune on maintenance (exhaust, brakes, etc). It's
runnin SWEET! =)
I too say, "Bring on the snow!"

I use a towing cam to drag my travel trailer around and it seems to have
more bottom end because of it. (low end torque) I can't say it has improved
the fuel mileage though. It's a 1 ton 4x4 pickup truck so I didn't purchase
it for fuel economy. It's a mule that plows the snow in my driveway in the
off season. Let it snow.

Gravel driveway?

Unfortunatley yes. But with the skids I don't throw too many stones. And I
keep a good grip on the lever that raises and lowers the business end. It
also has a "stop" before the "stop" - so when I lower it, it can still go
further if I push against a spring resistense. I usually don't blow the
first snow. I try to wait till the ground is hard and there is some cold
crunchy cover.

Sounds like you have it dialed in, Sarge.

I looked at all the leaves on my lawn and backyard, and all the leaves
that had not fallen yet, including a 50' pin oak that had all its leaves
still attached, and wondered, should I take off the mower and attach the
blower, or wait? Last year, these leaves would all be on the lawn by
now, but this year, with temps at 65º F on Thanksgiving day, I said F**K
it and put the blower on..
Otherwise, this global warming is great!

I've waxed the show shovels, and reminded Kathy she only has two hours to
clear the driveway or she gets a beat'n.
