Love that truck! '67 or '68? Looks to be in very good condition.

Oh sure, the tractor is nice too!

The dynamic duo!! Nice set-up you have on the tractor. How does the plow attach to the loader?

Here is a pic of how the blade attaches to the FEL

Rick, I plow most of the time with a 78 cj-5, but when you have years like we've had this year. I start to get piles higher than my Jeep can stack it. So I bought Curtis loader plow like you have. Monday was the first time that I used it. Worked great for pushing back the piles and scraping down the hump where the driveway meets the township road. The trouble that I was having is cleaning the driveway off with out digging in. I tried it in the float position and, all it would do is dig in no matter how much I tilted the blade forward. The best luck that I had was sit the blade down to the ground and feather the control up and down to try and hold grade. I'm sure it is just me doing something wrong. There are a lot of people who own these plows that are very happy with them. Any suggestions? How do you like yours? Thanks eddy622611

The snow doesn't have a chance with that team. Really nice 67. When you go and restore it are you going to paint it orange so it will match the kubota?

Eddy, I too was having a problem with the down force and the float was too much weight, but I'm getting better at the loader control and doing a much better job at it. I read on a previous post is to unhook the top hydralics on the curtis and hook a strap from the blade to the loader so the blade hinges like a pickup plow does, this iliminates the FEL weight , I don't think i'm going to try this trick. My driveway is paved, dirt may be different.
I also was plowing with a 83 cj-7 and the went to the 67 chevy. and now the kubota.

John, So far I love the B3200

Actionaj, I don't think it's going to be orange, I'm thinking gold or green with a whit cap top.

Rick, Thanks for the reply. The main use for my tractor is mowing. Of the 300 hours on this tractor the loader has been used maybe 3 hours. I was hoping to gain some experiance running the loader by plowing snow with it. The problem is that it is nice and warm in my Jeep (heater works great) and I mostly plow at night. Its the differance of plowing in shirt sleeves or a snowmobile suit. I have to admit that I enjoyed myself on Monday plowing with the tractor. It was a nice day not much sun, but the wind wasn't blowing. I had 70 Chevy C/20 pick-up that was Hugger Orange with a white roof. It also had an oak floor in the bed. Good luck with your truck. eddy622611
