After a season and a half I have a plow back! No more snow blowing for me!

mpriester · #**4425** 10-28-2012, 01:59 PM

I'm as ready as i'm going to be but i will be adding a new cutting edge and wings. Newly rebuilt pump on the truck, rebuilt spare in the truck, repaired and painted the plow and sector and built a swing mount for the spreader to access the bed without removing the spreader.

Nice set up. Thanks for the idea to make a swing out for my salter! Would make getting the salt bags out of the truck much easier.

Thank You. i used 3" square tubing. if you need anymore pictures of it let me know. i built the whole thing for under $30.00 in material. It may be a little crude but it works just fine.

Looking at the pump it looks like it has a Angelo's sticker on it.
Wings will decrease you're plow time by about 25-30%, you'll wonder why it took so long to put them on.

mpriester · #**4429** 10-28-2012, 05:57 PM

Thank You, actually that pump came from Storks and the spare i rebuilt myself. I am definitely adding wings as soon as i can.

ThankYou. That swing mount design is nothing special, anyone could make it that has a welder and something to cut steel with. Wings are being ordered this week especially after pushing 4" of heavy wet snow and slush yesterday.

Getting ready for the 2012-13 plow season eh!

durafish · #**4433** 11-01-2012, 12:32 PM

Looks nice how's that plow....don't see much and not much info about them.

EliteJ · #**4434** 11-01-2012, 12:42 PM

I like it. this will be the 3rd year of commercial plowing with out any problems. I have had meyers, fisher, western plows in the past and this is just as good as any of them. I was not sure what to expect when I bought it but I have been very impressed!

CGM Inc. · #**4435** 11-01-2012, 03:04 PM

Another 8.5 SS

Those are awsome plows . They now make a 8.6 SS Vee trip edge sweet and the hook up is super easy as well as disconnect

The wing's really give that plow a fresher look. Really like the fender flares too.

Good luck!

Nice.........
Here's a couple of suggestion's:
Trim off the excess rubber edge, before I trimmed mine I had a problem with gravel, snow/ice getting forced into the gap which pulled the rubber away from the wing. A utility knife will work for cutting it.
Add a piece of flat bar the same width as the rubber edge to sandwich the rubber edge to the wing, there's not enough surface area on the carriage bolt head to prevent the bolt from pulling through the rubber when back blading.
