Snow Attachments Looking for snow plow info. ??

[GrayBeard]

Hi,
I'm intrested in finding some mfg.(s) for front blades.
I did review some of the old posts on the subject and saw some pics. of ones that connect to the front bucket.
That looks like a good set-up for me. I don't intend to move dirt, just snow.
My lane is asphalt about 600' long.
I do have a rear blade but would like to try the "front".
By the way, I'm using a CC 7264 , TLB, industrial type tires.
I'm sure this has been covered numerous times but I'm rather new here.
Many Thanks.

I just started using a Curtis blade. So far I'm very happy.

I should have given some more info.
I'd prefer to mount to the front bucket or loader arms.
I think 6' wide manual angle would be fine.
I've plowed for several years using a Honda 4x4 atv with a 4' blade.
I'll check out the ones you spoke of, thanks.

Curtis Blades are excellent. I've been in the Curtis factory several times and seen how they are made. They are all powder coated which is not true of all blades. 6' is pretty narrow when you angle it. How many hp is your fractor.

I know of anew 8' blade that could be bought cheap here in Ct..... Just the blade and A frame.... all the rest is missing..

I also want to build a Curtis type blade setup for my tractor, I am looking for a 5' or 6' blade.

Here is my dumb question...
Since I have no hydraulic remotes, can I just level the blade with the loader control, then disconnect the hoses from the DSCV that go to the dump cylinders and connect the angle cylinder to the DSCV? Will the blade stay level with the pressure of plowing?
Adding remotes will make the project not feasable at this time due to the cost. And a manually angled blade just is not as much fun!
