Anybody know anything about making/buying a frame to mount a winch onto an X300 lawn tractor?

Anyone know a supplier for a winch frame to bolt on my X300 lawn tractor to raise/lower my 44" JD snowblower? Even plans would work. I've never used a winch for this application, and any information would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi all. I ordered some coils off the Bay, and got what's shown in the pic, sitting on the battery stand. I figured I'd give them a try, as they sat in the box until it was too late to return them, and I realized they were a little different. They fit with a little filing, but where the coil...

Unfortunately, ours are well fed and live in the house.

And I thought 8 kittens was bad lol.

We rescued a cat 2 years ago. It was cold and hungry. We took it in, hoping to find it a good home. It 'blessed' us with 8 kittens! We found homes for the mother and some of the kittens, but we are left with 3. It would be great if they weren't inside cats. No mice control for the shop...

That's a really good idea. I'm going to try this. Thank you!

Thank you. I'll try that. The rack was put on new last year, but the tech who put it on didn't center the steering wheel. As soon as I get the engine back together and the wiring fixed, I'm going to get the steering all fixed up.

Wow! I wonder how long this has been leaking? It's a real wonder that it didn't blow up from the heat. I don't understand how a person could leave it like this, this long.

Going to have to wait until warmer weather. It looks pretty good though still, for what I was working with. Basically, just looking for the oil leak right now, and wanted to clean as much accumulated gunk as I could. That said, I did clean as well as possible underneath. I'm going to strip down...

I live in Southwestern Ontario Canada, It's still below 0 degrees here (Celsius) and I just have a small garage, so All I could do for now was spray 9/engine degreaser, and a pressurized spray jug. Didn't work too bad. I did notice that the breather vent did leak onto the right jug, as mentioned...

Rubbing alcohol really works to get the petrol residue out of the plastic. I've steam cleaned it inside and out, and it's still giving off vapor big time. Going to let it sit a few days, and air it out. Possibly stream clean it again. I won't use the alcohol until right before I'm ready to...

I was just reading about West Systems G/Flex epoxy. Highly impervious to gasoline, and one of the best for adhering to HDPE - if the prep is done right. I bought some for the cracked JD 'Zenoy' hoods. Going to give this a go before forking out for a new gas tank. I'll let you know if it bonds.

And that could be the culprit. You should see the mess the mice made of the wiring. Too bad it was left outside for a couple of years before they decided to sell it.

Mine looks like a rat was gnawing on the corner. there isn't anything close by to rub/cut into it. weird.
