R4s are good on the flat. But I have a sledding hill that ends in traffic. Sliding down the hill on the BX is not fun. Chains (and sand) are the magic that turns it back in to a driveway.

Does not take much torque to turn the chute. Too much torque and you could damage the worm or chute gear at end of rotation. I will second the simple 12 volt motor. Adapted a surplus seat adjuster motor for my chute rotate. Then a joystick on the control lever to control both the chute...

Can you keep that evil white crud to your part of the state?

If you want to dent or scratch it go for it. It is your toy/tool. I prefer to wait out the natural course of events and have a story about the marks that add character to the tractor or whatever. Have taught kids that dented steel is fixable. Problems come with dented person. I have got the...

I'd send the employer a letter about the guy 'trashing the company name'. Many companies care about public image. The boss suggesting he go help clean up neighborhoods may change the attitude.

I don't need any stinking safety switches....

I went with Kens bolt on hooks. Two hooks are nice when carrying stuff with the bucket. And can use the blade for little tasks when you don't want to take something else off the 3-point.

As a reference my BX R4s weight 140 pounds each. Your turfs will be more.

Times are changing. It is now OK to be anti-social in public.

You may be able get the pallets off the trailer using the curl vs lift. I have used curl for slight lift to get pallet off a truck that by BX could not directly lift. Big concern is those pallets are almost 50% over the rated load of the forks.
