[R Bedell]

Got my 784 out late yesterday afternoon to clear the driveway from the 6+" of snow we got.

Made a pass to the end of the driveway and pushed the "buildup" across the road, to pile it there. Backed up a few times and widened the path. I decided to go from a straight push on the blade, to an angled push. Did so. Went to get back on the tractor and it sounded like something is hitting the Tunnel Cover. Shut the engine down, grabbed some tools and went back to remove the tunnel cover. Lo and Behold, both Flex Disc Couplers on the rear end of the drive shaft, are shredded and broken, along with the cooling fan. A quick examination found "apparently", no other issues.

Got the Service Van out and a tow rope and gently dragged the tractor backwards until I could get it near the Car Garage. Then I shoveled and "bulled" the tractor inside. By that time I done all that, this old carcass was all farted out.

Now today, the repairs begin. Hope my local dealer have the new Flex Disc Couplers.
