I have a set of those. Came here on the Workhorse GT1800. 

They're now on The Ugly Bruce tractor. 

 

HEAVY. 

 

 

Any idea what they're from originally??

 

Some sort of generic aftermarket weight? 

The one on the other side weighs 72 lbs... no markings don't remember where they came from.

Of course we don't get enough here in NC for me to have a clue what I'm talking about... :lol:

Yesterday was in the mid-30’s so the stuff on the sled hill got a bit soft. Last night we got a nice snow/sleet coating from the front edge of a sharp cold front. Today the hill was as close as I can remember to perfect. Icy hard base under a thin layer of crunchy, icy snow. Fast but steerable. Wahoo!

Well, we got around 6" or so of snow last night and it is snowing heavily right now.

Another foot or so is forecast for today so I plowed some just to stay ahead of it.

If I get too much then the big tractor and blower may need to come out.

The 520HC is resting in the heated shop now.

It is currently 9F with a wind chill of -2F so I wore my warm jacket and insulated pants to stay warm.

Oh, you would fit in this cab.

I have not even started this tractor yet this season but I am keeping the battery charged so it's ready to go.

We got about 6" of the wet stuff that got me 4 hours of seat time on the 312H.     Seven driveways and 3 gallon of fuel later.

To early to tell I guess but Ive heard 4 inches up to 12. Maybe in a couple days I/they will know better. Anyway I got plenty of propane and kerosene in case of a power outage. We are just getting out of a deep freeze now and warming but  bitter cold coming back again. S.W. Pa.

I'll believe it when I see it, but they are calling for somewhere between 12 and 18 inches of snow and ice here over the weekend. 

 

Last "significant" snowfall here was 2007 when we had 6 to 8 inches. Everything since was a light dusting at most. 

 

It will be great to see a good snow. 

 

...if it actually happens. :rolleyes:
