Good afternoon folks ! I am toying with the idea of mounting a snow blower on the front of my WD-45. Mounting is the easy part. Powering is the question, could I take PTO driver and remove and turn so it faces forward?? I have not removed mine as it is outside and I don't want to deal with the oil while it is cold out. This more likely to be a summer build as I will prob add my Greeson live hydraulic pump to the tractor for my outlets and such.

If anyone has thought of this and checked into it please let me know or e-mail me at grandpasrepair@yahoo.com

Thank you all !!

Andy, you'll get more/better results in the 'Farm Equipment' area. That said, I think an easier way to power it might be to use the belt pulley. There are, or were, V-belt pulleys available. Seems like I might have one or two around here? I'm sure others do too.
