Hello All,
I have a Ford 1600 that I sometimes use for snow removal. I live in Northern Nevada so I don't get that much. We usually get a six to eight in dump, just enough to make a mess of things. I have a 5 foot rear scraper and I purchased a 60X6 1inch thick poly from Fall Line. They recommend support 1 inch from the edge. I was thinking about bolting it on top of the scraper blade with some metal straps running down the length of the blade. This would require that the poly take the arc of the scraper blade. They suggested mounting between the blade and the scraper but that would not give the proper support. Unless I drill new holes to mount the scraper higher on the blade. What do you think??
Thanks!
Brian
