Does anyone know the weight of the Ariens weight kit? I'd like to rig one up on my own.

I have an Ariens weight kit. You can buy it separately or one comes with the Snow Cab kit. The Weight is not cheap. The mounting bolts are long enough to easily hold 2 weights at 10 pounds each. I find the 10 pound weight to be helpful but I toss a bag of cat litter on top of my snow chute if there is heavy ice (2 inches) under the snow.

Thanks for all your suggestions. I'll try to get something set up for next season. I'm ready for the snow to disappear so we can get crops in for our market garden. Sugar Snap peas first on the list.
