Swapped newer Toro for older Ariens....
Original Message   Dec 27, 2008 7:43 am
I just swapped a 3-year-old Toro 1128 OXE for an Ariens 1332LE (924128)...because I wanted/needed a larger machine.  Can anyone date this Ariens?  It appears to have very little usage (scraper blade is almost unmarked, chute has just a few marks).  The Toro is a great machine, but I really need the extra size. 

Well???  Did I just blow it????   Go ahead, I can take it...

There is a track drive kit that would slow the unit down (40%), but it's pricey and may also have some other attributes you're not looking for.

I'd forgotten that I could turn this machine into a DLET with the kit, which would be very nice speed
and traction-wise. I was originally looking at one but went for wheels because I have to clear an
elaborate wheelchair ramp which has hairpin turns in places.   Still the tracks may be the best
solution.  Thanks.
