I see Dallas got a few inches today! LOL...

That storms coming up my way for Tomorrow night... might get a inch or so, 1-3, Or perhaps the 2-5.... That would make me money. Now I'm doin the snow dance!

Help! :) :grouphug:

It is thanks to you that it will snow here today!

I figured it out. If we really need snow bad, we all take our plows apart, AND disable our trucks too, bringing them to 'down' status.

Its a no-brainer. It will snow with fierce blizzard like force if our plows are apart AND the trucks are down too....


:thumbsup:
 
ya im not ready either my parts havent got ordered yet ( lack ok money *wife* lol) for my new boss V blade . This suxs there saying later tonite were goin to get some . My sis in Va is gettin dumped on , damn this SUXS .
 
it is snowing!!!!!!! hooray!! matt, you are right on about that "down" status. i havent even looked at mine yet, till about, oh, 3 hours ago. thats when i hooked it to my truck and prayed like hell! all is good. only thing is, the marker lght in the left side head lamp still doesnt work. damn thing didnt fix itself over the summer! :mad2:
 
Spent ALL day on customer trucks. Everyone waited til the hint was in the air, got 1" Thursday night , but have a storm every other day from sunday on :) Got to love winter, ground has about 4" of frost in since Monday :) Glad I got mine all done last week, now its help everyone else out. But hay thats what I'm here for. You guys all plow safe and enjoy !
 
Got beat.... 6" turned to 2= no moneys made..... I did plow 1/2 off one of my small lots... had to test it out... worked like a champ. It really tripped smoothly changing the mounting angle and with 100% new pins... I was really surprised by how tight and smooth it trips now.
 
I would love to have some snow! We don't see much here.

hmmmm, i might have to do that as well. i kinda wanted to this year, but never found the time/money
 
Pins are fairly cheap. I think all mine were originals some were banana shaped and most were a good 1/4 indented from wear... Its now a fairly quiet, very smooth motion... night and day difference. I also repaired the lower 2 mounting holes, raising my angle closer to level than pointing upwards while plowing. I think that had a lot to do with it too....

I will have to look into this. I have never been happy with the fisher trip system (coming from a western blade of over 10 years)

Because of the way the fisher trips, I dont like to plow until the ground is frozen! I would run shoes, but I HATE shoes on my plow :-(
 
I hope you have a successful plowing season Matt. Just one question though, around here everyone has a snow blower. Don't anyone blow in your area? I'm not really understanding all this plowing stuff.
