    Built this snow pusher few years back..............

    Not sure what ur sayin'??..............just make sure the side skids are flat on the ground and give 'er............IMO pushers are much better than a snow bucket. The Yanmar in the pics was just big enough for this size pusher(84"). On my 7060, it makes quick work of the yard and I prolly...

    This is my 3pt ballast..............

    Not even remotely worried. Grew up on a farm .......I've been logging and operating heavy equipment all of my life.
