mavfreak 11 #1 Posted December 7, 2010 I woke to about 6"+ this morning and was able to do some plowing. The C worked great! Its so much nicer to plow with this than the Commando 800 that i have. The Commando did ok but the C just is so mach heaver and more power. And speaking of different I am at my moms right now (computer took a crap on us) Anyway I plowed out there driveway with a JD318. Man is that sweet! Hydraulics are so nice. Only thing that sucked was it just seamed I needed another hand to steer with cause the other two was running the plow and forward and reverse. I think power wise it and my C are kinda the same Ok Here is some pics for everyone. Sorry didn't think of getting any of the JD Hopeful Santa brings a new computer for Christmas this year. I was kinda hoping to hit 1000 posts by the new year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dgjks6 6 #7 Posted December 7, 2010 Nice set up. Don't know if this has been covered in another post, but the dash looks different than on my c-85. Is that a stock dash? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mavfreak 11 #8 Posted December 7, 2010 yes it is in '78 '79 they put a briggs twin on a C frame. the engine was to big for the metal hoods so they made one of fiberglass, and the birth of the black hoods began. in '80 they changed the C series to a metal hood and changed the tower. The rear fender on mine is not original it should be the fiberglass one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dgjks6 6 #9 Posted December 7, 2010 so the black hood started in 78 and the hoods were fiberglass? Learn something new everyday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
