One of the other members here gave it to me. It is a 6' plow that came off an old jeep he is restoring.

Is that a bolt on or clamp on setup on the b7800? Just wondering how it works and if it is easy to take on and off so you can use the bucket too. Friend of mine is looking to fabricate something like that out of an old plow he has, I'm considering it as well. Thanks.

cool! Funny on the jeep, friend who runs a lumber yarde gave me the plow off his jeep. Luckily he'd already welded a QA plate to it, so it was just a matter of changing the hydraulic lines. Are you using the hydraulic on yours?
One issue I find is its a bit narrow - have you thought of putting on wings?
Thanks for posting the video. Looks like that outside my window right now. Probably yours too I'd guess

I bolted a couple of plates into the bucket. It is just pinned in and very easy to remove.
The blade angles manually, I was originally building a snow pusher. When I rebuild it in the spring I will decide then what it wll be. I might use the grapple piston if I decide to keep it as a plow.

This is what I have on my B6000. It bolts onto the bottom and sides of the blade. From outward appearances it is a 48" rear scraper blade modified to fir my bucket.
I am trying to figure out how to modify the mount so i can tilt it. It's a PITA to plow only straight lines.

i am not sure, i believe it is a 1978 (or so) and it is 13.5 screaming, roaring HP. two cylinders of pent up diggin', liftin', and haulin' POWER!
Oh yeah, and an old fashioned clutch and shift lever. sort of takes you back to the old three on the tree days in the ole chevy pickumuptruck!
