Hey Trac, that is great..yea im getting into the planning phase of putting a front blade on the 50 just because i really hate moving snow with a rear blade. when ever you get a chance any pics would be a big help, and i like your idea about using a winch instead of hydro..talk to you later....Mike P

hey Trac, what size winch do you think i will need for a 7foot western plow blade?
If it was me I would be looking at a small 2 or 3K winch with a snatch block. That would effectively cut the weight of the load in half which would give you a longer winch life.
(The snatch block doubles the load capacity of the winch. Why go as small as possible when a bit larger will be much happier carrying a light load than a small winch straining at the upper end of it"s load capacity? Also you can use the winch on another project should the need arise.)

sure is a good day for for some chilly ones, I kinda like the electric winch idea but am open to putting a single hydraulic renote valve next to the seat like this one that Steiner sells
this mounts to the area on the pump cover to the right of the seat. I was wondering if all you gotta do is bolt it on or is there some internal plumbing involved with this?

Yeah thats pretty nice it's similar to what i have
it should run in the stand pipe that feeds hydro oil
from the pump witch gives you one way pressure to
pick up the plow. My nephew put a winch on his
4wheeler remote control just a power line to the
winch than ran the cable straight to the plow it
might have weighed 50 pounds.

i was wondering if it gives you one way pressure then how does the fluid make it back when you lower the plow, because the ram i have only has one line, does that valve have a port that lets fluid back into the hydraulic system?
