No thanks, to the squirrels that loaded up my neighbors snow blower (who left it with me to repair) with acorns so the drive chains are stuck. [gunfiring\

There is no E-Z access without removing the motor to free it up.  **read9 Still working on it.

 So I along with my neighbors I'm shoveling by hand. Thanks LA Fitness.

Sure am glad I didn't sell my '87 Jeep J20/M715 with Meyers Plow!!!!!!!!!!!! If I only use it once a year, it's worth the upkeep. Does anybody know where to buy Meyers Plow Parts? I need a rebuild kit for my E47 pump. I used to go to Malaga Jeep, but they are gone.
Cheers,
Bob

Franklin Trailers in Berlin, or DeHart in Thorofare....

But for just a part, I'd go to the internet for the best deal

Great to hear you got the parts Bob, and can fix the plow. But don't take this the wrong way. I hope ya don't need to use it. We got clobbered here with snow.
Can't tell you what the official depth is but it's over the top of my boots. Channel 40 weather says we got 19'' in Egg Harbor.

I assume you mean me...

I know that.... Ether... Carb popped...  wooooosh

No air cleaner on it. It had a metal airbox around the intake, so I couldn't snuff it out with my gloves. All the dirt was frozen to the ground so I couldn't smother it... nerve racking. But the factory, 1985, VW fire extinguisher in the camper worked  **^bana0

Ah, I'm so jealous. I just have got to get a snow blower. 185' from the house to the road that gets plowed in.  Q3surrender.gif

Mark, the trick is, when you do your drivway is to do 20-30 feet of the road also so when the snow plow comes by there isnt any snow for him to block your drivway with.

Title: Re: Thank You
Post by: rich67vw on January 07, 2011, 07:57:16 am

or, simply buy 185' of VW's, park them all in the driveway. After the snow, start 'em up, and drive em down the road in 4th gear.  Whoosh! Cars cleaned off, driveway clear, DONE!
