the rear had better not swing.....those green & yellow things weigh 240 # pluss another 60 in lead under them..... onlygot to test it in a 1 inch snowfall....gotta make some mods to chute & reclean the carb...... but in below 0 weather we've had....no progress is bein made

ooohhh..... when I raise the blower just a lil & let it float just above the concrete...I can throw all but 120 #'s onto the traction axle that means the blower weight is on traction axle too plus counterbalance weights...
