Hey buddy ya just need more weight on the back ,, on my JD i use the jd cast iron weights on wheels and hang 4 JD suit case weights off the back,, you can hang them on the back blade or build a simple weight bracket on the back high enough so it doesn’t impede the use of back blade which is what i do...i have carsle ags on back and front and a 175 foot drive way here in PA never need chains it pushes threw any snow,, maybe do that on your 455.. promise you will love how it performs..of course our JD are also a much heavier tractor to begin with which helps...
Find out what local classified ad listing site is most popular in your area and search there. Very often, implements are not sold on their own. You might have to buy a tractor package to get the implements you like, then just sell the stuff you don't want afterwards.
ayp193 I sold that back in early 2015. Recently last year it popped up for sale and sold again. A very unique tractor and I was thankful for my time with it.
Great video. It's always fun to see the old toys come out to work.
Great video. Plowing snow one of the great joys in life.
W1WEASEL Thanks a lot man. I always appreciate your comments on my videos, and always admired your ever-impressive fleet of powerful tractors.
Great video, thanks for posting. We have two Roper's in our collection
Great vid! I really like that rear blade.
JohnDeere318Guy Thanks Jimmy, me too 😁
Very nice tractor! Makes me want to get my 1975 Roper Hydro-13 going again and use it!
71_Sears Thanks, I sure think so!

PhatboyHD88 thanks for the tips! I was considering hanging some of my suitcase weights off of the blade, that seems like a smart idea.
Yay lawn tractors 🤣

Hi I was wondering where I could find a snow blade that would fit an old roper similar to this
