Having a tractor that is 64" from tire to tire, and a 50" blower, worked, but not as good as it could.

Option One - Trade it for a wider Pull type Meteor, yes, the next one will be pull type.

Option Two - or build extensions.

The extensions won!!




3/16" steel broke to our drawings.

More to come as we progress.

I have had six inch extensions (one one each side) on my blower for over 10 years no problems and they work great
Can't tell from your picture but mine have brace running from the outer edge to the side of the blower

Thanks. We are going to weld a brace from the lower side of the extension to the lower side of the blower.

These will give 7 1/2" each side, for a total of 15".

Thanks Kenny. Will get actions shots once snow flies, but there is no rush for that... :)
