    Snow sticking to Boss Plow

    I have waxed it with paste wax and it works better, but it seems the 2 inch pipe I have installed on the cutting edge, sticks out enough to prevent the snow from sliding down.

    X series straight shifter upgrade kit

    Well, we got some snow overnight and that allowed me to try out the shifter modification. While it didn't eliminate all shifting problems it sure did improve it. You now mainly move the shifter straight up and down without having to go left and right thru the gate. I am very happy with the easy...

    X series straight shifter upgrade kit

    I removed the pin today from my shifter. (Cut it off) Simple job with an oscillating saw. I will find out how well it works next time it snows. It already seems better just sitting in the garage.

    Snow sticking to Boss Plow

    I have a X1100c with the Boss V plow. I installed a 2" pipe on the bottom of the plow cutting edge for the gravel driveways. Pipe works fine but even after trying numerous spray lubes on the blade I have a big problem with huge amounts of snow sticking to the blade. I think the pipe sticking out...

    Yellow roof lights for plowing?

    Ok, thanks for your replies. I'll wait for snow. I think me buying this unit is keeping the snow away. 😆

    Electrical Updates

    I ordered the same style lights but with red leds. I think the white would be too bright.

    Yellow roof lights for plowing?

    I would like to upgrade the front work lights to LEDS on my X1100C. I haven't plowed with it at night yet, and I'm wondering about glare with those lights being mounted so high. I keep thinking how you have to dim the high beams on a car or truck in heavy snow conditions. Maybe the halogen...

    Dome light switch

    Dave, looking at your picture again it looks like there is some silicone at the bottom of the windshield. Someone must have tried to fix a leak before.

    Dome light switch

    Dave, I have mine run between the frame post and the rubber gasket, the rubber just overlaps the frame a little. I just looked at mine and I see no way that can allow water to enter. As mentioned above that cab is airtight. I think there is another problem.

    Sharing a good parts find

    I bought a set at my local Ace Hardware for roughly the same price.

    Dome light switch

    I ran my wire the same way that Dave did his.

    Dome light switch

    I noticed that the doorjam switch was hitting the weather strip at an angle and was starting to rip it, so I reinstalled it near the cup holder as talked about above. I drilled above the brace for the switch and screwed into the brace with the mounting screw/ground. I did run the wire along the...

    Dome light switch

    tfdr1, If the switch is long enough that looks like a perfect place to install it. I would drill the hole for the switch in the plastic just above the brace and drill a small hole in the brace for the mounting screw which is also the ground. Wish I had thought about that.
