looking for blower chute advice

[Rustyiron]

We've been getting a storm every other day here, about 50" in a week or so. Here's my fix, and it's been throughly tested this past week.

Blowing back snowbanks all day today and tomorrow too. It's a light weight fix that seems to work and this blower (@2000 pounds) does not need to be any heavier, the back is 6' out from the hitch pins!

If you want to convert it to front mount, I can send you pictures of how they set up the front mount versions of that blower.

I (my neck) would be very interested, but I'd have to make it work with my plow hitch. Plowing with the blower on (the back) is a blessing & a curse, it makes the tractor very long and a little light (steering) in heavy snow on ice. But then where you have no room snow, the blower make's it gone. It's after a big storm that I can have a few day's or more of work just blowing banks back that a front mount would be very nice for, believe me It crossed my mind more than once today:laughing:

You might have to notch the rear cross member on your hitch, and tweak the top lifting point, but I think it might work.

Simple and effective, can't argue with that!
