Well I went and visited @jimkemp this past weekend and got my new stack. I installed it yesterday and it sounds great. I only got a few things left and it will be done. Just waiting for one thing to come in the mail and got to make a couple brackets for footrest and a brace for the stack.

I like the lawn Tracs on all 4 corners, really thinking of adding them to the front of my blower tractor.

@WVHillbilly520H I test drove it around the yard and went out in the woods on a muddy trail and I was impressed with how they dig right in and the grip while steering impressed me as well. Very little sliding. I'm sure the 14hp up front helps with some weight on the steers though. Overall very happy with the tires so far.

That's good to hear.

I'm putting a set of Small AG's on the front of the Cinnamon horse.

I'm curious to see how they do.

@ebinmaine the ones on this tractor are 16x7.50-8 and they have a little more of a wide and flatter surface to them. But they do steer well and seem to grip good. But on my regular b80 I got Deestone 16x6.50-8 ags and there a little narrower and not as flat of surface area. But I did a lot of work with the b80 at camp at around the house and I love the way that one steers and handles. Not sure if you can see the difference in pics but heres some to compare.

Well got a couple odd things done. Got the plowblade on. That will be redone next summer. Just foot rest, stack brace and lights to do.  Gonna get a seat pad for the square pan as well. Also the b-80 will be pushing a 42 in blade this winter. Got to put the rear weights on that one still and front weight on the b140.

Well I figured I'd wrap this up. I forgot to post pics the other day when I finished foot rest and seat. So I'm doing it today. I spent some time working it today pushing some compost piles and I'm super happy with this machine. I will still add lights when I figure out how I want to do them. But the main thing is its alive and officially a worker on the team!
