That is the XI cab I got at the Big Show a few years ago Ed and retrofitted it to the classic series. It was NIB,NOS.

I built the exact same snow dozer with your guidance on the snow cab a few years ago. Worth every penny!!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herder 2,355 #7 Posted October 21, 2019 Just maybe the snow will miss us this year. It's time to get the tractors ready, the plow truck has craped out. Nice rig. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hadn't used my blower for 3 years, so I sold mine and put a 48" blade on the 520. I got tired of plowing the wet sloppy snows with the 312 in the sleet and rain while the useless 520 w/cab and blower sat in the barn. Yeah, we probably guaranteed some major blizzards for Southern PeeAaa this winter. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If your prepared, no snow. If your not prepared, you get pounded. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
