Had JATONKA change the plow setup to a Western electric hydraulic 10' plow this year. We also changed the hydraulic pump and reservoir for the dump. She moves snow real well with the xml sneakers and wider plow.

Dont know the year - I'll look closer and see if there was a year on any of the generator tags. Cummins model NHRS6 IPG with a Schwitzer supercharger. Can anyone tell the year from the data plate pics?

Made the old girl work for her fuel today. She hasn't even had to push any real snow yet this winter. Hauled a 175k gen set home. Cool supercharged Cummins engine. Hmmmmm... I wonder if it will fit in a 5 ton.

Definitely need a wider blade - probably will add at least 1 ft extensions to get to a 10' blade. Stuck it today trying to push my plow ridges back. The plow doesn't push the snow far enough to the side and it comes back down into the wheel tracks. Had to shovel a few thousand pounds of...

Latest Update: Went to do a little touch up plowing this past Sunday and she fired up OK with the ether bottle almost instantly. But the belts were squealing like crazy and didn't quiet down after a few seconds. Popped the hood and the generator was set up tight and not turning. It was...

PB: That's was how I tried to sell the idea of this truck to the ol' ball and chain. She probably would have believed it except for the other dozen or so OD trucks scattered around the homestead! I think she doesn't mind them too much because she knows working on the trucks generally...

Speaking of other projects. did you ever use that tow bar off the shelter dolly yet?

The truck pushed snow amazingly even with the street tread 1100r20 tires. Could easily push a wider blade. I had no weight in the back so with a few thousand pounds in the bed it would be unstoppable.

Plow frame and setup was originally fitted to a bobbed deuce by member TRUDGE, then I bought the plow off him when he moved south to Georgia. I bet he's kind of wishing he kept it right about now 8-). PM him and he can give you more details on what it started out as. JATONKA modified it a...

Maybe tomorrow after I'm done plowing. Got the bed emptied tonight as we're going to get 9-16" of the white stuff tonight. It's slick - power up and power down.

Pics of the tires that will go on the truck.... Pics of the lift cylinder before mounting...

Just got my truck back from JATONKA. I had him mount up a 4 way plow, convert it to a dump bed, and install his awesome spin on oil filters. That's JATONKA in the first picture, and me in the second. He did a great job!!! The pictures tell the story. I don't have a picture of the bed all the...
