Where can I find a replacement blade for my old Ford Blade. Is it available from a Ford dealer or can you get them somewhere else? Thanks

Can you take the cutting edge off and turn it over?

I assume you mean the wear surface part of the blade assembly. You might ask at New Holland, but I doubt that they stock it. I bet most good welding shops could add metal to what you have and give many more years of service to your implement.

I live in an area that usually gets quite a bit of snow (but not this year). Our county road department has road graders and lots of plows they mount on dump trucks to plow the streets and highways. They wear down the wear surface that contacts the pavement fairly fast and replace them with new, as needed. The old wear surfaces are recycled or given away. A few years ago I got about 25 six foot sections of the wear surface. They are about 3/4" thick, 5" to 7" wide and slightly curved. I have used a couple of these, turned over for snow plowing. I think they will last a lot longer than I will.

Although I doubt that one of those wear surfaces would bolt right up to your plow assembly without modification, maybe you could get one and make it work. Good luck.

We built a grader blade out ofa piece of discarded LARGE gravel pipe. We split the pipe end to end, cut holes in one of the halves in several places, placed them back to back and welded them together back to back through the holes. We welded a plate at one end, hanging it out over the edge on one of the halves to make a box blade on that side, but, did not enclose the end of the other half, so we could rotate it and use that side as an angle blade. We've used it for six years with no problem. It does not wear. It was, after all, a gravel pipe. The nic thing about it, is that when we unhook it from the tractor, it stays upright.
