Here is my thinking on this . For snow removal a ft. blade is fine and if you use it accordingly . For dirt work for what they want for a heavy blade ya can get a lot of dozer for . What would work for snow wold be a 10 -12 foot 4 way snow plow and with a little heat wrench and some lincoln ready bolt ya can take the old plow subframe and fit it up under the tractor to the rear hitch area and the ft. of it to the ft. bolster with a easy on and off set up run the hdy. lines in pipe along the sub frame with your 4 hoses to plug into the rear couplers with quick connects up on the ft.so ya can drop the plow with not needed but leave the sub frame on and do it so that the sub frame is 12 to 16 inches off the ground for ground clearance . Set the ft. couplers up so that they are idiot proof and that the hoses will pe pluged into the couples like they do on a pick up plow this helps keep them clean . I have set up three tractors one 1066 a 1466 and a 4240 deere for local guys years a go. The ones that we used were old 10 foot state plows that were the 4 way hdy angle . Now the only DOWN side with this set up is that when angled that if you are really running fast and in heay snow it will shove the ft. of the tractor the opposite way if she gets more then she wants . just not enough weight on the ft.like say a loaded dump truck and at time i have seen then head off into a ditch on the other side of the road that DID not need cleaned out. The plus side is that they have the adjustable skid pads and spring trip.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Plow and Disc - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea ... [Read Article]
