gsemeraro8 148 #1 Posted October 2, 2018 (edited) Just got the 314-8 up to PA, repurposed as strictly a plowin stallion and somthing to stare at in the garage ...Its only wet because she just got a bath, this machine will never spend a night outside again! . Just waiting on my new set of AG tires to arrive and thanks to a member for the new plow setup!!!, fits perfect and with all the stainless hardware that was added it will last generations to come!

kick 59 #4 Posted October 2, 2018 (edited) Nice tractor. I’ve been working on this 416-8 and just mounted these Carlisle trac chiefs. Hoping they will plow moderate snow here in jersey without chains and some lawn duty. Edited October 2, 2018 by kick 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With alittle weight in the back i dont think you will have a problem, i opted for ags in the front too despite what some people say, but i love the way they look lol...those carlisles look extremely heavy duty Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tankman 3,515 #6 Posted October 3, 2018 Nice donuts! I have plowed many times without chains or weights. Plow often if the forecast is for "too much" junque. The 416-8 can handle it the grandson 'll tell ya! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tankman 3,515 #8 Posted October 3, 2018 (edited) Foot rests, think coarse skateboard grip tape. One piece does both footrests. Or, http://www.classickitchensandmore.com/wheel-horse-tractors-parts-c-42/ Edited October 3, 2018 by Tankman 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its been debated here many times and the general consensus is that turf tires (like you have on it now) are better tires on a snow-duty tractor over AG tires. Just saying if your using it as a dedicated snow plow machine you might want to reconsider. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

posifour11 723 #12 Posted October 3, 2018 Do you know what these things do to you? Easiest way to to figure is to double your garage space, then double again so your wife can park in her spot. Then, it just gets worse... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
