Finally ready for the snow

I finally got 'em all ready. 430 with the loader, rear tiller for ballast, lug tires.
One 420 with snowblower, ballast box and turfs with chains. The other 420 with front and rear blade, lugs and chains with no ballast yet but will be on soon. I have just scored 3 - 12" x 36" x 1 1/2" doxer blade chunks which will become the ballast for the one with the blades.

Sweet set up! Looks like you've got some dusting of snow on the ground already. Share some pics of those bad boys in action if you can.

Thanks.

Looks like you can handle just about anything that comes your way. If I was a snowflake and saw that equipment I would go somewhere else. slkpk

Wow! Clearly a group of hard working tractors. You are ready for anything! May I ask, what is hanging on the seat back of the 420 w/plow? Is that rope, and extension cord, or something else?

That seat is a Princess Auto special. It has some welded nuts on the back and I threaded in some long bolts and then used it to hold my tow rope. Trying to get to the edge of my driveway sometimes the front wheels fall into the ditches along my driveway and it needs a little help to get back out. Way handier than going all the way back to the shop.
Thanks for the great comments guys. It has been a lot of work getting them this far and when I get comments like this it makes it a ton more fun. Still have one more 430 to go and I want to document it once I get it started but that will not likely be till next winter.
Thanks again

The snow doesn't stand a chance with your snow removal equipment.
