Yahoo! Been fixing my new to me Ford 3400 since July and just plowed the driveway. All went well. Plenty of traction with the tire chains and the 400 pound counterweight I just made from a 55 gallon barrel. Used the loader to plow, which will take some practice to get down. Would appreciate any tips on how to do this. I also scored a plow today. Found a heavy duty 8 foot fisher with a new cutting edge, but it was too expensive for me right now, even though it was a good deal at $160. My buddy wanted to upgrade so he sold me his smaller lighter duty fisher with some rust through for $50. That I can afford. Planning to build a frame to mount the plow to the loader frame, then use the hydraulics for the bucket curl to angle the plow. Any suggestions on this appreciated also. Post pics if you got 'em. Anyhow, glad I could express my excitement among people who understand. My wife doesn't seem to get it. I guess that's how it usually goes. :wink:
