Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Made it back to Bravo at around 1830. Leaving The UTV on the trailer tonight. Too pooped to do much. A Toddy for the body, recliner in front of the fire and a tv we show recorded on the TV….
Good morning Ford gang. Been working hard on a rebuild on my 93 SHO engine, just started putting the engine back together.. But also had time to put some new wheels and tires on my 66 F100 4x4
Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. More snow flurries passing through.

Pretty much. Got the Lane and drive cleared. The UTV is running great, and the heater sure beats sitting on an open tractor. 2WD/4WD/Differential Lock all work great. The locker on snow and ice is worth its weight in gold. Got 400 pounds of pellets from the barn into the wood box in the house.
The Warn Winch substitute snow plow they replaced the Kawasaki system with, leaves a lot to be desired. The spring attachment to the blade use eye bolts that are way too small and don’t stand up to the strain. The skid / adjustment feet are held in place by Hairpin R Clips that use a narrow Chanel instead of having a hole drilled through them for a locking them in place. I lost the R clips & the feet on the first pass down the 1/2 mile lane. I found one of the feet, but I suspect the other one won’t be found until the snow melts.
So in the morning I need to run into La Pine and get an eye bolts, R pins and call the dealership.
Good morning Ford gang. No snow here as of yet. Jim, I have an ATV with a plow on it, it uses bolt on feet that are double nutted. They work pretty well,
Morning all. Only a skiff of snow in some places but below 32. Roads are pretty icy this morning.
Jim - If the original system you were looking at was hydraulic for that plow, I'm not sure I would have settled for that make shift thing given what you need to do. On a side note, that's the best use of golden fire pellets I've ever seen.
