perry 82 #1 Posted December 4, 2007 got the raider all suited up and took it out for a trial run in the snow. runs and plows great. but WOW! does this thing fly . the kid i bought it from changed out the rear pulley and put a 3" on. i have to be carefull. if im plowing in 3rd gear and wind up hitting something, im gonna hurt myself. but it really gets the snow a-rollin off the plow . this is one fast raider. makes the loooong trip to the mail box a quick one.

Sparky-(Admin) 19,546 #3 Posted December 4, 2007 Perry, maybe you need to install an air-bag sytem like our cars have ! On another note all these snow stories and pics have me very anxious for some plowable snow. Mike......lots of cold but no snow :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wh79d160 52 #4 Posted December 4, 2007 My D160 is backed in the garage w/the blade about 3 inches from the door just waitin to bust out. Only problem is, we haven't had any pushable snow in Kansas in 2 years. Tom :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,345 #5 Posted December 4, 2007 Tom, I know the feeling- it's been 5 years since we had a real good snow storm here in southeast Missouri. But, until I get a plow for one of my horses, the snow can hold off. Perry, It looks like it snowed pretty good Saturday at your place. I wonder if we should start a snow removing thread to show all the pictures of the horses removing snow. Nah, probably not, it would definitely take a while to open up a thread like that. It's best I guess in small doses like this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michcruiser60 0 #6 Posted December 5, 2007 Change that pulley for more seat time man!! :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
perry 82 #7 Posted December 5, 2007 Change that pulley for more seat time man!! i was thinking the same thing. i prombaly wont use the raider much thou. just a extra seat in case one of my buddys stops by to help plow. my main plow tractors will be the WH B-100 and landlord. im just waiting for my rear axle seals and plow handle to come in the mail for the B100.

Curmudgeon 28 #8 Posted December 6, 2007 Tom, I know the feeling- it's been 5 years since we had a real good snow storm here in southeast Missouri. But, until I get a plow for one of my horses, the snow can hold off. Typically, a "good" snowstorm means cars in the ditch, power outages, and the list goes on. Nope, I'll NEVER hope for a good snowstorm!!!!!!!! There are better ways..... Dale, think SPRING!!!!!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T-Mo-(Moderator) 4,345 #9 Posted December 6, 2007 Dale, I don't blame you. It can snow a good one once if I had a plow and then I could do without the white stuff after that. The last good one we had it dropped 18 inches - I don't need that again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Curmudgeon 28 #10 Posted December 7, 2007 LOL, most people just call me an old fuddy duddy for not liking that which presents undue costs. THINK SPRING!!!! Dale Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
