Right, I made sure to measure numerous times before building the mount. The picture doesn't show it well, but when the plow is angled all the way one direction or the other I believe I left about 6-8" between the moldboard and the front tires. Anyway, it's mounted as far back and I could get it and still be comfortable with the front tire clearance when the plow is angled.
That picture was taken right after I got all the framework built and mounted, so it was just kind of mocked up and not even wired or anything. Since then I have taken the old cutting edge off and built a new one with flat iron and some 2" pipe so I don't remove my gravel driveway when plowing. I also cut off the rubber flap right where the break is there at the top of the moldboard. I need to get some pictures taken and put together of everything since it's more or less completed: I like putting together portfolio's of all my fabrication projects.
