its like the lawn tractor version of that jonny cash song "one piece at a time", glad you're still wrenchin' and building cool projects

[@warrenvalentino5763]

Great video! Awesome project! i Love watching your videos. seeing you do work on a craftsman is inspiring me to a pulley change ( to a smaller pulley) on my free to me craftsman LT1000, the next step from a ride on mower to a mud mower. i bought a smaller pulley at tractor supply, but i will not be buying anymore pullies from tractor supply. have a wicked good time plowing snow. i would say call it: Franky (as in Frankinstein).Please keep up the Awesome work. :)

Since it's made with parts from so many different mowers, it's definitely a FrankenSnow Monster Plow machine!

"When you should buy a plasma" For me, it was after I spent an entire weekend fabricating a bumper and using only a grinder for cutting. With the plasma I could have done ALL of the cutting in the first day.

I called that mower the One Piece at time like the Johnny cash song. Since you mentioned it was made from a bunch different year lawn tractors . I know here in Michigan I like have that.

Nice one about time for a bit of mower action. Keep warm and stay safe. cheers from the 🇬🇧 UK

Hello from Tacoma, Washington.

[@bitsnpieces77]

You should definitely do some snow plowing videos

Basically you are making it the way the original GT’s were. When I did my Diesel Conversion on a GT 6000 years ago, this is exactly the same way I did my drive setup. It is possible to keep everything stocks when it comes to the tractor side and the original clutch. I go by the colour when it comes to the year, if it’s the lite shiny silver it’s old, if it’s the darker gray it’s newer. But everything is interchangeable.

Thanks for the video, I’m in the process of doing the same with mine

[@liljoeii6091]

Wow that's super fast Thank you for the video

put a fan on the old pulley mount, that will cool it better. My vertical oppy has a fan from a hydro on the flywheel, and it runs 10x cooler.

I put a 3/4 pillow block on the steering shaft and got rid of that weird plastic block with the second bolt.

[@redneckcomputergeek]

Will keep an eye on it. If it gets loose again I might do this that or weld in a wheel bearing like I do on my racers.

You have it the same drive setup as my Sears Suburban, I did a 420cc BiltHard amazon engine in it, pulled the Onan twine, never know its power is 3HP less....

Been watching your KZbin channel for a long time. Love the content. I have a question you maybe able to answer. I have a Polaris ranger ext 325. Engine has had its last day. I’m thinking of putting a Predator engine or a Duramax. I would like to run the Polaris primary or due you know of a clutch that would work with secondary on ranger. Thanks Kevin

I see a battery sitting on the concrete floor in the background!!!! It's gonna go DEAD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@cbrc4216]

It’s a Franken-tractor

[@ghostgaming-78-l5l]

I’m gonna swap a hydro transmission for a manual do I have to have a clutch ?

[@Mo_2118]

yes, otherwise you will grind gears until you blow it up

[@dodgeme1986truck]

Yup even the hydrostatic transmissions usually have clutches often built into the brake pedal
