Awesome vid, Lew! Thanks for showing us! :beerchug:

Here's another link to a vid I just made. Got a ton of snow here and it's still going strong:biggrin2:

I had to replace the gearbox on the thrower as the original one is a bit tweaked. In the pic the smaller gear has a good bit of rotational play, 1/4-3/8" of play and is causing the gearbox to make a serious racket when under load. Took the gearbox off the cw36 and it works much nicer, although now I see a u-joint needs replaced on that:beer2:

Did the driveway and it was nice to have a blower to loft the snow up and out of the way.

I also did a loop in the backyard to pull the kids around on their sleds with the tractor. It gives a good idea of the depth of the snow.

That tractor worked like a slave for 3 solid hours today with no complaints- best tractor I've ever owned (hopefully the only one I'll ever own).

S-D

Jude,
Nice video,
Stick that thrower on the 147.
then watch it throw 35 ft!

Awesome vid and pics, Jude! :beerchug:

Thanks for showing us your nice pics, SD! :ThumbsUp:

Jude, You gotta go instructional on those vids - Real steady on the cam, just need to put in a bit of narration for us rookies! Do you get night blinded by the reflective light?

SD - Now that's what I call a real clean way of getting the job done - a great pic with those buildings in the back!

Thanks Lew & Allen:beerchug: I just took the 1st pic about 10 minutes ago and I've got a ton of seat time comin tomorrow:biggrin2: I put the oil bath and IH emblem on the new O'. Need to buy a choke cable bracket and hook up the throttle the way it should be and then it'll be good to go.

Thanks hilltop! lol, I'd do a little narrating, but don't think you can hear me over the tractor/thrower, without me looking like a complete fool yelling!! I love movin the snow at night, prefer it to the day. I'd be out there right now, but it's so peaceful I don't want to raise a rukus:biggrin2:

That is a sweet pic! Doesn't make me miss the snow tho!

Oh great now I get to hear Jude talk more then I already do!:biggrin2: Your videos are pretty good, they even made me set up a youtube account not that I've posted anything but hey I have a account incase I do!

Awesome video's Jude!
