Craftsman GT (Garden Tractor) Moving Snow

Last week we installed a plow, wheel weights and chains. Let see how this 24 year old Craftsman GT does in the snow.

Well done - I remember that white stuff fondly ❄️⛄

While it can be fun I would rather not have it.

Great Job! Another fine restoration at 5 bees 🐝 . Thought for a second you would go thru the fence! 😃

[@5beesgarage]

HAHA. It might have been able to!

[@nathanbrunner6026]

is the mower deck on the craftsman gt this or is the snow plow still stays on the craftsman gt?

[@5beesgarage]

Nathan, I am sorry but I am not understanding your question.

[@nathanbrunner6026]

Putting one together myself, finally found the right weights

[@5beesgarage]

Awesome Richard.

[@Huntersprojects]

I have a LT1000 and a LT4000 not quite garden tractors but they’re awesome I just bought a plow for my LT1000 the 18 hp intek is amazing in winter and always starts and runs pretty good for a free machine I have a deck and a bagger for it and use it to cut the grass but mainly to bag leaves and such as I just bought a Simplicity regent 14H to cut the grass and it leave’s amazing stripes for a rider

[@5beesgarage]

Sounds great!

[@shanesmaineshop]

[@5beesgarage]

It did. I like this one.

[@davidhornickel114]

Does this lawn mower have an open rear differential or a locking one

[@5beesgarage]

David, I am not 100% sure but I think it is open.

Sweet Sweatshirt!!

[@5beesgarage]

Thanks for noticing!

[@lumberbungler9358]

This will be perfect for the upcoming storm!

[@5beesgarage]

I hope so. Thanks for the comment.

[@zinmot5457]

what type of grass do you have? Is it always stay green during winter?

[@5beesgarage]

The grass is a standard mix of Kentucky Blue, Fine Fescue and Perennial Rye. It stays mostly green during the winter.

[@zinmot5457]

@@5beesgarage thank you! That's what I need. My grass looks brown and ugly during winter

[@jtbassgambler2594]

The best craftsman tractor

[@5beesgarage]

I agree

[@garywelker8398]

I got the same setup, except I got the hydro . No chains and 50lb weights hanging out back, It's a pushing snow machine and a great lawn mower

[@5beesgarage]

They are great machines. Saves the back!

[@myfordranger]

nice. i love my 96 garden tractor. they can really push some heavy snow.. saved my ass all these years..

[@5beesgarage]

The Garden Tractors work well for sure!

[@LHiller]

hey I really like that garden tractor with snow plow on it. Is it for sale? my boyfriend is old and needs it he keeps throwing out his back shoveling. Oh do u need a special license to operate it? tx

[@5beesgarage]

I am sorry but this unit is not for sale. Maybe you need to get a younger boyfriend? No special license required. Thanks for the comment. LOL

[@kkphotoimages]

Hey I don’t appreciate your comment.. I’m her boyfriend. And I wouldn’t take that tractor if you gave it to me for free, EVEN THOUGH YOUR THE BEST MECHANIC EVER!!! 5-STARS!

[@5beesgarage]

I would never give it to you. You might hurt yourself. I have seen you drive and its not good

[@LHiller]

@@5beesgarage hahaha you nailed it @5bees

[@lumberbungler9358]

[@nathanbrunner6026]

Do you still got the plow on the craftsman gt or has it Been taken off yet?

[@5beesgarage]

Still on Nathan.

[@nathanbrunner6026]

Ok are you ever going to take the plow off for moving or leave the plow on the craftsman gt forever?

[@5beesgarage]
