I was thinking about trading mine in on a frame mounted one too, so I can get back to easy plowing and not having to worry about scarring up my driveway and the road!  | Regards JD3520 | |

We use the Curtis plow and the WR Long valve. | | | |

Points: 0 | At least one of the guys has modified their brackets so that they can get the loader on and off in a few minutes without having to change brackets on the tractor to accommodate the switch to the frame mounted snow plow. That would get me over to a frame mounted plow real quick as I don't want to have to change brackets every time I needed to change to and from the snow plow. | Regards JD3520 | |
