I put an all angle plow on my 89 ford 1320. I tried using the bucket curl hydraulics to angle the plow, but plow would only angle to the left and not swing back to the right. I attached directly to the quick connects for the loader. The plow has two single acting cylinders instead of the double acting for the bucket - would this make a differnence? Any ideas?

Welcome to the forum.
I believe I have the same setup for plow as yours, i.e. Western plow with three one-way rams.
If I throw the 'curl' lever far to the right (brings the quick dump feature into play) then my snowplow will not angle to the right. However, if I just move the lever to the first 'curl dump' position, then the regenerative circuit doesn't come into play and the blade angles perfectly, same as to the left.

I hook up the angle cylinders to the bucket and the one-way ram to the 'lift' circuit side only.

That is similar to what I did except that I took the bucket off and built a quick attach to the end of the lift arms with a cable running back to the loader arms to keep the plow from rolling forward when it is lifted. I will try to just move the lever a little bit to see if that works. Maybe I was just a little too "enthusiastic." Thanks
