As someone who's been plowing for most of my life I can truthfully state, you did pretty good for only your second day of plowing. Not to mention, that was some deep, heavy, slick, packing snow.
Used A '79 Dodge Power Wagon with A Meyer of that vintage for about 15 year's until the frame broke. Still have the plow but I needed something to plow with (Had contract's to fill) so I bought A '90 Ford Bronco about 6 year's ago. That one is now falling apart ( Minnesota salt!) I also have A Case 1845C for the big snow's but I don't care to use it unless I have to (No cab and diesels are so much fun to start at 10 below!) Gave up contract plowing A few year's ago. Not much snow around my area the last few years. 11 inches so far this year and it's going to be in the 40's for the rest of the week and rain on Saturday and Sunday. I also plowed off and on for the City of St. Paul for over 28 year's. Good luck!!
Hey Jeff Two things, The trip springs should be tightened so you can slide a piece of paper between the spring coils. This will prevent it from tilting early. And secondly when she wont back up from the bank hit the power angle and will sometimes push you back.
Right on. Also though, make sure your pump is set for a fast response time from point of control input. If it's set to slow, it won't give you any "push" from the blade.
was over in leavenworth wa one winter & a guy had an older 70's ford f250. chained all four, spare parts in the box of truck. damn what a site that truck was & loud as hell. looked like fun to me! 😃 👍
Not a bad job for a rookie. Chains on all 4 wheels helps a lot when plowing. The tires in the bed squeaking would drive me up a wall. I know their for weight i use bags of concrete or sand or ice melt if IM spreading it after the plow job. Enjoy your videos Jeff hope you get all the repairs done around the house from the snow damage and don't forget to video them. LOL
That is an iron horse...best truck GM made. It will still be plowing when I am gone. I carry chains for back when ice starts. Years ago I plowed up a long hill and when I got to top I slid backwards all the way down taking out mail boxes and fence. I was 17 and nasty neighbors yelled at me on long island NY. We often have to plow twice two layers or use a payloader when over 12 inches of wet snow or truck gets stuck. They make "speed chains" which come on off easy. All the kids have souped up turbo diesel trucks and plow now.$60 k more than a payloader cost lol. Nice video you make fun stuff there. PS you will have to put a grease fitting on your knee cap from using clutch....kills my leg after several hours...lol.
You guys got hammered with snow, its been a long time since I've heard 4spd gear whine and the notchyness sound, the old 350 must drink the gas plowing snow.
Snow plowing is so darn hard on a truck .... In some cities, states, plowing the snow in a lot and putting it across to the other side of the street is a NO - No... From Wisconsin. It snows a enough here. But it was fun to watch this video.
Nice job plowing! I use a plow mounted to my ATV, and that is a handful to control. I can only imagine the fun with a full sized plow is. And I'll admit, I have left piles of snow in the road too. . Only I sometimes forget about them. -Nick.
You tell 'em buddy. I plow for some family and friends too Jeff with my '69 just like your's only I did a quick body-on resto and use an 8' Western that I love. I would suggest at least rear chains though, they are a bitch to put on my 33-14.50-16.5's though!!!! but really help. going to be 65 degrees here Sunday. Hurraahh!!!
I plowed snow for many years with a Meyers plow on a 1959 Willys FC 150. The cab forward was the best for visibility. A few more winters and you'll get the hang of it. Have fun and enjoy the heater.
When the snow starts a-fallin', There's a man you should be callin': That's KL5-4796. Let it ring! Mr. Plow is a loser And I think he is a boozer. So you better make that call to the Plow King!
Jeff, I love all your video's, I enjoyed the series you did on sending the red suburban over sea's. I just watched a video from Mahmoud J. He has lot's of pictures and a short video at the end of him towing with the suburban you sent him. I hope you got to watch it, it will please you on how much he's done to it and how happy he is. I'm glad you left the long drive at the end of this video, beautiful views! Thanks
Hey Jeff. Snow plow driver here. Go easy on the ramming if you like the welds not being cracked on your plow and frame. Momentum is your friend when it comes to the heavy stuff. I normally drive a tandem axle dump truck.
A couple old enj work great as weight ! I just so,d my last plow truck! 1985 chev 3/4 Heavy plowed with it for 20 years .Bought it from a guy who brought it back from down south for $3,800 Sold it for $$3,500 20 YEARS later What a truck ,Know I have a 2013 1/2 ton nice car with 5 1/2 box but a nice Daly driver
I was thinking you folks in the North West were getting a whole lot more snow than you are used to. Back here in Michigan, we have rain and 45 degrees. I have plowed snow once this winter, and haven't even fired up the blower at all. Very strange weather we are having! As for the idiots pulling in front of the plow, it happens EVERYWHERE! I will never figure out how people can go so brain dead the minute the ground turns white. They just completely forget how to drive and what to look out for. Keep safe,Jeff, and have fun doing it.
I used to work down a steep road in a holler, and we had to plow our own road, the city wouldn't bother with us. We used a Meyer as well, and we took the shoes off so the blade would hit the pavement, we plowed as soon as we could see it sticking and kept the road squeaky clean. We wore out a number of blades too!
I miss plowing ... best to plow at night, if you can ... less traffic ... my brother is plowing in Cape Cod , Massachusetts ... great job ... thanks for sharing
Okay Scottie I mean Jeff give us ramming speed. I'm giving ya all I got Captain. Gotta love a stick in the snow. Sorry I didn't know ya wanted to plow the pumps all I wanted was some gas. I stopped cause I saw the sign Eat Here Get Gas. Good music and great video. TFS
The old GMC is getting the job done ! I'd like to have a dollar for every time I've had to plow snow over the years, Tractor and blade or truck and snow plow or a fork lift and snow plow or even a skid steer pushing snow ! LOL It's all fun ! Bandit
I saw you plowing, I was heading out from Station 1 while dad was plowing with the tractor. You were on Caves highway. Dad said you stopped by the station. haha
Finally gets some use!! I figured it would but that GMC does just fine in moving that snow. Plus, you don't have to worry about burning up and automatic with her.
Jeff, I just want to say thank you for sharing this video. I've been concerned about how this weather was affecting you personally. You showed the fun positive side of God's creation. After a long hard day's work it was very refreshing to see your life through your eyes. I hope God continues to bless you every day of your life. Thank you very much for continuing to post your videos.
I grew up in Ohio and lived 9 years in upstate NY. This is nothing new. Rare here in southern Oregon, but nothing new to me. I'm also the only guy in this end of the county with a plow on his truck!
Great job plowing Jeff, sorry I didn't get back to you on those spring saddles. Father-in-law had a stroke,family is in a tizzy. I used the last nice set on my '69 3/4 ton just a month ago. I lifted it 21/2 inches and put a spring in the front 'cause I am putting a big block in next week hopefully. Call me end of the week I'll look around some more for you. .Jim.
Go Jeff! That wet stuff is hard to shove around. Ol'e Blue did good. We usually get mounds of wet snow like that here in northern Ohio, but haven't for the last 3-4 years. We're long overdue for 15-30" of wet, road closing sloppiness . Keep doing what you're doing, buddy.
Fun times plowing and beautiful scenery at the end. Reminds me of plowing with my dad in Wisconsin as a teenager in high school. Another great video Jeff...keep'em coming!
Good job plowing, My dad has a 69 k 20 that he booger welded a cj plow frame on years ago (i was the power angle! haha). Truck is a tank. in 96 we had that bizzard here in PA. he was plowing snow balls up higher than the hood! Sadly though that truck is succumbing to rust pretty bad. I hope your gmc doesn't end up like his!
You would think people would stay out of your way while trying to clean parking lots but they don't. We clean the local Mall with Backhoes and Skid steers and they will run right behind or right where your trying to pile the snow.
lol! some guys put weight low in the box, so they can see backing up. I tried the snow plowing thing in southern BC 30 years ago, starve for a long time, go around the clock for 24 hrs... starve for a long time... it was kind of fun though. btw, snowplow is usually supposed to be there before the people arrive. auxiliary backup lights on the cab/headache rack for working in the dark. the truck my plow has been on all this time is toast, think if I ever need it again, I'll mount it on an automatic ramcharger, blazer, bronco. keep an eye on your temp gauge running on the highway, not much airflow through the plow. ;)
There's a set of tires and rims in the back on top of a load of firewood. I can lift the tires or the rims, so I could mount them on my machine, but once they're mounted I can't lift them off the machine! I had them there to go to someone to mount them up!
lol! I know your an on the ball kind of guy. it's just nice to laugh at someone other than myself every now and then. the tires piled up just struck me as comical. I'm definitely not laughing at of any of the problems the snow gave you at home. I've had to start over from scratch more than once, while I have no doubt it's doable, I know it's not a whole bunch of fun.
Man Jeff I'm envious, we have no snow and 55 degrees in Northwest Ohio. It makes it rough to ride my snowmobiles. Just keep praying I guess. My wife and others say I'm nuts, just kinda' crazy I suppose. Sure is pretty where you are.
Raise up your plow full height when you are not pushing or back dragging snow. This is most important in the wet heavy snow like in this video. I think you need some rear back up lighting for night/after dark plowing.
I live i Alberta Canada ,and I think you did a terrific job plowing snow.Please don't hit the curb,you could bend your rocker arms. Anyway Great job and good Video.Thanks sir
Coming from Canada and plowed snow all my life . Here is my advise .Be Gentle on you equipment and don't plow up to far on a pile to far you will get stuck! also a truck should make between $100 and $ 150 per hr
With that much snow you kinda have to keep the plow angled so that it moves the snow left or right. You can push a little bit of snow straight on for a little while.
damn that ol gmc runs good. snow plowing is definatly an experiance hopfully you wont have to do that much more lol living in canada i wish i didnt have to lol.
When you got hung up on that bush, did you have your plow all the way up? It did not seem like it. That will help. Just remember go medium speed in that heavy wet snow, try to lift your plow right as you touch the curb. Unless you are at your place you have to look around a lot. I have plowed a fair amount in my life living in South Central Minnesota. Good luck, be safe Jeff.
As ye be pushin' it t'aside, there be more a comin' down. I don't think I could ever live in a place where it snows in winter. Just seems like snow is just a huge pain in the arse. And then when all that snow eventually clears the ground will probably be soggy underfoot for months.
You could also angle of your blade left or right and then before you hit the pile straight in the plow blade that will help with pushing some of that snow
Get some better tires on that beast! also, when you ram the piles, make sure the plow is straight otherwise you get pushed around side to side. Good job for the second time out though, and great video!
i worked at a gas station in Grants Pass for years and I have to say the median IQ down there was on par with broomsticks and wheel weights when it came to driving, it degraded drastically with parking.
This is my dream day out working in my old truck!
As someone who's been plowing for most of my life I can truthfully state, you did pretty good for only your second day of plowing. Not to mention, that was some deep, heavy, slick, packing snow.
Thanks Fudd!
Wow that drive home was amazing! Those big pine trees were real nice.
Good job Buddy....you are an asset to your community.
Well the snow plow held up an rolled it all away! The driver did a pretty darn good job also! Thanks for the beautiful ride home!
Beautiful sight! An old friend always said be prepared and opportunity will present itself.
Used A '79 Dodge Power Wagon with A Meyer of that vintage for about 15 year's until the frame broke. Still have the plow but I needed something to plow with (Had contract's to fill) so I bought A '90 Ford Bronco about 6 year's ago. That one is now falling apart ( Minnesota salt!)

Beautiful scenery, thanks for the ride.
Thanks for this great video! What an awesome truck you have there.
Thanks Jeff for the video, loved looking at the scenery.
Really enjoyed the plowing and the ride home. Did a great job leading into the music with the sound of the truck engine. Thank You!

Great Job plowing that snow with that small truck. Does a great job I'm sure everyone appreciated your work Jeff.
Finally a snow plowing video of Old Blue . Made my day to see this video , thanks for sharing 😊
that truck looks so nice !
Wet snow is the best, the way it sticks to the branches is just so pretty.
Looks like a fun day! You even got to pull someone out!
thanks I appreciate you remembering that we wanted snow plowing adventures :)
Wow, what a beautiful drive!!
Great video!! Excellent job plowing.
Not a bad job for a rookie. Chains on all 4 wheels helps a lot when plowing. The tires in the bed squeaking would drive me up a wall. I know their for weight i use bags of concrete or sand or ice melt if IM spreading it after the plow job.

Great video! Really enjoyed the "tour" at the end.
Fun to watch.Take It from an old Wisconsin farmer,you did good.I have pushed snow over 50 years,still am,you did good!See you at the snow pile!
Fabulous ending and song!!! Nice change for sure. AND, beautiful scenery to boot. :--))))
I was perusing the online music libraries. The Mrs. liked that one, so I used it!
Glad you got your snow! You can have mine any time!
That is one tough truck, good job sir.
That is an iron horse...best truck GM made. It will still be plowing when I am gone.
I carry chains for back when ice starts. Years ago I plowed up a long hill and when I got to top I slid backwards all the way down taking out mail boxes and fence.

74 Chevy still in service. That's how its done son.
You're a good man. God bless you.

When you were driving in the last part of the vid, you sounded just like Barney Fife :)
Don't Park in the Path of the Snow Plow......I loved that, Jeff. : )
All that Scenery was S0 Beautiful T00!
And you can see the steam rising if'n it was in your back yard!
Yea, its 52* down here again right now and Soggy also. ; )
You tell 'em buddy. I plow for some family and friends too Jeff with my '69 just like your's only I did a quick body-on resto and use an 8' Western that I love.

love the video been waiting and here it is cool keep it up
That name again, is Mister Plow.
When the snow starts a-fallin',
There's a man you should be callin':
That's KL5-4796.
Let it ring!
Mr. Plow is a loser
And I think he is a boozer.
So you better make that call to the Plow King!

Nice scenery! We don't get snow in south Texas usually, but in 2004 several inches fell on Christmas morning.
The last part of the video was the best. Beautiful but dangerous. First thing I do after clearing the drive is go for a ride. Great video.
Hey Jeff. Snow plow driver here. Go easy on the ramming if you like the welds not being cracked on your plow and frame. Momentum is your friend when it comes to the heavy stuff. I normally drive a tandem axle dump truck.
Got to love that sounds of backing up sounds like a old school bus

Good music and great video. TFS
I was 75 in Huntsville, AL today. I spent the whole day outside in a T-shirt and shorts.
Hi, good show. I think I had that same plow many years ago.... Now I plow with RC.
The old GMC is getting the job done ! I'd like to have a dollar for every time I've had to plow snow over the years, Tractor and blade or truck and snow plow or a fork lift and snow plow or even a skid steer pushing snow ! LOL It's all fun ! Bandit
I saw you plowing, I was heading out from Station 1 while dad was plowing with the tractor. You were on Caves highway. Dad said you stopped by the station. haha
Now ya gotta tell Jeff that's not a Ram, that's a Cheby.
MostlymoparIH lol Well he did dodge a few things.....
Correction , It's a GMC.
I'd wonder about you and IH but it's too cut, dried and fried!
MC and I are jousting partners.
Having fun is what it's all about.
I liked that one!!
Finally gets some use!! I figured it would but that GMC does just fine in moving that snow. Plus, you don't have to worry about burning up and automatic with her.

Family first... I have a 71 3/4 ton out back, but it's kinda buried, the backhoe's broke and the shop is laying on my torch outfit. 3 strikes...
I'll keep looking and call you!!!!!
Go Jeff! That wet stuff is hard to shove around. Ol'e Blue did good.
We usually get mounds of wet snow like that here in northern Ohio, but haven't for the last 3-4 years. We're long overdue for 15-30" of wet, road closing sloppiness .
Keep doing what you're doing, buddy.
I love snow. It's the cold I can't stand! Lived in Lima for 26 years!
wow sure is pretty mr.jeff sir stay warm ......
here in Canada Quebec is the snowiest place i love winter im Canadian
Fun times plowing and beautiful scenery at the end. Reminds me of plowing with my dad in Wisconsin as a teenager in high school. Another great video Jeff...keep'em coming!

winter wonderland
Yes, that's the correct way... Something positive is always there!
when you get stck some times you can use the angle of the plow to push you as you back up
Love that old Chevy. Now we know why they put the Granny gear in. What a monster.
Man Jeff I'm envious, we have no snow and 55 degrees in Northwest Ohio. It makes it rough to ride my snowmobiles. Just keep praying I guess. My wife and others say I'm nuts, just kinda' crazy I suppose. Sure is pretty where you are.
All I can think is how much you can get done on the pickup!
Heh, I've actually started tinkering with it again. I bought some wheel cylinders and got one installed! Man that's progress!
Raise up your plow full height when you are not pushing or back dragging snow. This is most important in the wet heavy snow like in this video. I think you need some rear back up lighting for night/after dark plowing.
Since you said you've never plowed snow before please don't say you watched a CZcams video on "How to plow snow".
I live i Alberta Canada ,and I think you did a terrific job plowing snow.Please don't hit the curb,you could bend your rocker arms. Anyway Great job and good Video.Thanks sir
Haven't seen that much snow around my neck of the woods in years now.
But years ago that would have been a normal winter.
Lift before you make it to the curb or pile of snow in the blade will lift up into the snow and stack better
Curb, Raise, Ram, nuff said, nice vid
Just think if you lived in Minnesota you could play with that plow all winter☺
I like it here. Rarely enough snow to plow, which is why I'm the only guy around with a plow! I grew up in snow country!
Coming from Canada and plowed snow all my life . Here is my advise .Be Gentle on you equipment and don't plow up to far on a pile to far you will get stuck! also a truck should make between $100 and $ 150 per hr
Jeff's new mantra for life: "Kerb... Raise... RAM..."
my meyer is older than yours it's a E45 pump that is up & down only, sat out in someone's woods for 27 years. put on my 92 Broncoe.
I'm pretty happy with it
With that much snow you kinda have to keep the plow angled so that it moves the snow left or right. You can push a little bit of snow straight on for a little while.
don't forget to undercoat that beautiful truck!
No salt here!
damn that ol gmc runs good. snow plowing is definatly an experiance hopfully you wont have to do that much more lol living in canada i wish i didnt have to lol.
When you got hung up on that bush, did you have your plow all the way up? It did not seem like it. That will help. Just remember go medium speed in that heavy wet snow, try to lift your plow right as you touch the curb. Unless you are at your place you have to look around a lot. I have plowed a fair amount in my life living in South Central Minnesota. Good luck, be safe Jeff.
As ye be pushin' it t'aside, there be more a comin' down.
I don't think I could ever live in a place where it snows in winter.
Just seems like snow is just a huge pain in the arse.
And then when all that snow eventually clears the ground will probably be soggy underfoot for months.
You could also angle of your blade left or right and then before you hit the pile straight in the plow blade that will help with pushing some of that snow
Gotcha...
sweet!
If the park in the path of the plow simply pack snow around them so they can't leave.
Charge $5 removal fee
The scenery looks nice, and at least you know the plough works 8-)
A vehicle one size heavier / larger might find it less hard than old blue, though
The 56... I yearn for the day...
We ALL yearn for the day Jimmy Blue is going.
The idle seams high to me
Is there a vacuum leak ?
14:28
Ok,thanks.
Sounds like the Jimmy Blue is idling a tad high?
Good to see the truck back in action Jeff!
-A
14:28
Snow will be good for water table.
Get some better tires on that beast! also, when you ram the piles, make sure the plow is straight otherwise you get pushed around side to side. Good job for the second time out though, and great video!
Also, always push down hill. gravity wont be your friend otherwise.
Works right dandy it does
Have fun
i worked at a gas station in Grants Pass for years and I have to say the median IQ down there was on par with broomsticks and wheel weights when it came to driving, it degraded drastically with parking.
Beautiful scenery...until it turns to slush...you do seem to live out in the "toolies". People are lucky to have you around.
Need to get a Hough loader next summer...then you can really pile the snow high.
Or fix the backhoe, which is what I would normally use.
cool vidoe
you get snow, we get rain, it is getting hard to get any work done on my 64 panel
Where is this? It's beautiful there. Looks like a beautiful place without snow too.
Never mind I found it. Oregon. Yeah, you guys got dumped on this last week. Be safe!
would it of helped if you had chained the wheels?
