Chad, Going long arms in the front, and custom 4-link in the rear. I'm not going coil over though, coil springs and shocks.

Right on Tim, well done, I forget why you want to change the frame ...??

Off topic,
that new snowblower you got with 3 augers, (the auger in the middle) does the 3rd auger really make much difference???

On the frame: I was originally going to start a build from the ground up using the 4BT. Sense then though I decided to stick with a gas motor. I was going to use the extra frame just to rebuild the Bronco on, but after looking both frames over decided the spare one was the better of the two.

On the 3rd stage snow blower, I think it helps a lot. At least compared to my old 2 stage blower.
