Hi Troops,
Me and my 4018/L54 blade had some one on one time yesterday moving about 14" of snow. I still marvel at the ability of these machines to do what they do!!! I plow my side yard which is grass so I have an alternate spot to put my trailers into so I can clear out where I normally keep them. I also pushed the snow way off the driveway with thoughts of last years storms and running out of room to push/blow snow into!!!
I miss my 448 as it has the slower high range gearing that I installed in 99. It plowed in high range and the match of torque and traction was perfect. Tom Goldencove has the pleasure of owning and operating it now, enjoy!!!
I also installed the Speaker 777 lenses that I got from Bill Gebhart. I used the new gaskets that I purchased on eBay a while back. These lights have the H3 55 watt halogen lamps that I had installed years ago. Lots more light particularly forward and no melting of the plastic lenses, which are now glass!!! I may still install tractor type lights on the fenders as I had done to my 448. They are 35 watt halogen spot lights with a very reflective interior. These lamps really light up the front area!!!
