Thanks for your response to my questions. I am considering this blower for my rhino but my driveway is bumpy and rocky with a steep hill. I had concerns that they were not as sturdy as a tractor blower but wasn't sure. you've confirmed my suspicions.
It's a 54" with a Kohler 23hp twin. Like everything else with a motor it needs more horsepower, and I'd go with a 27hp if I was doing it again.
The blower is built a little too light for the way I work it also. I've had to do some welding, gusseting and reinforcing to keep it going, but I haven't been gentle in the least and have pounded it pretty hard on occasion. Used in a nice smooth yard with no rocks at moderate speeds it would probably last forever.

What size is your blower: engine (type & hp) and blower width?
Are you pleased with this set up? If not what would you change?
Any issues with the blower?
Thanks for your reply, great video. Post more if you have them.
