The Myers snow plow frame conversion is done, painted, and bolted tight to the tractor.
I also am fabing up mounts for a Cub Cadet RTV canopy that I bought at auction NIB. It has mounted nicely. I still need to fab up the new fender mounts at the rear axle, and decided while I was at it, I would fab up my version of a "mod hitch" for the rear, so I can put my wood splitter and back blade into it. This tractor was a bare-back, set up with hiway mower when new. Nick (Lazy WP) sent me a complete hyd. system, with dual valves, which works great. The mod hitch will have a double acting cylinder on it so I can apply down pressure to the back blade. More pics to follow later as this part of the project progresses.
The first bracket is a reinforcement plate that bolts to the front bumper and ties it back to the front axle bolster, to add support to the angled gussets going down to the bottom of the plow frame. The second frame is the support for the two front canopy legs, and the extended foot plates. Stay tuned, work in progress. HeHe.

The black plastic roof on the canopy will turn Desert Sunset shortly. Frame work will remain black.
