Replacing shear pin in tractor snowblower

Just finished posting this video on YouTube.  I pushed the snowblower and bit too hard after the last storm and the upper shear pin (the one near the pto) did what it was designed to do.  You have to work in pretty tight quarters to install a new shear pin (bolt) and it can be frustrating, especially if you have to work in below zero weather.  Fortunately I had the tractor in the garage when I shot this video. As you can see the Kubota snowblower is a rear mounted 3 point type mounted on my Kubota BX25 tractor.  I'm thinking now that I will probably remove the snowblower over next week or so and get the back hoe installed.  Will keep you posted.
