2 stage 42" blower unit for my prestige

Old_Nodaker,
I have spent a few winters in ND on business and quite frankly, Fargo is the Florida of ND compared to Bismarck! But both are toasty compared to Minot or Williston! I'll check out that attachment for the chute since it would be a handy addition to my snowthrowing arsenal. My dealer never mentioned it was available when I first bought the blower for my 425 or bought the retrofit kit for my X485. That is why I made the point about the 2-stage versus the single stage in case it was only available for the former.

Oh:whine: You've actually been here - Never mind then.

The chute on my snowblower was predrilled at the factory for the mounting brackets. The way I found out about it was a display they had on the showroom floor. I suspect its a one size fits all deal. I'll see if I still have the number for it in case you can't find it.


Actually, we're equal opportunity. There's times when it's much warmer in the western parts of the state too.

Thats just plain out nasty weather. We get cold weather, but you guys get slammed pretty often with nasty wind chills and temps.

We get some nasty noreasters up here in N.E., but I would guess they are a cakewalk compared to what you folks see.

I guess the reason why its such a big deal up here is that when we get slammed, NY city, Boston, Hartford and all other New England cities come to a stand still. Our population is much more concentrated which creates traffic jams, airport closures, etc. It snarls up everything from businesses, the stock markets, etc. etc. But I wouldn't trade living in New England for anything.
