i am looking to buy a 19-1 snow blade assembly for my 9N tractor.
I am hopeing someone can help me out, if i can't find find one to buy i would like to build my own.
If anyone has one and can take some pics and lots of measurements for me it would be muchly apprieated.
Thank you
 
What kind of welding/fabrication skills do you have?
You don't need to be good but it helps to know the basics and have access to a torch and welder.
Here are some photos of a snow plow I built for a 2N about 14 years ago.
Didn't have any plans or measurments. Just built what I thought I needed.
It went through a couple of transformations - particularly where the blade attached to the frame. These are early pictures so don't show improvements.

I had the plow face formed out of 10 ga at a local fab shop and built all the mounts and stiffeners for it. 6' was perfect size for an N.

I split a length of channel iron for the main push frames and made the push mounts for the rear axle.

At the time I didn't realize I could tap into the test port of the hydraulic pump and raise the blade that way.
So I used two 12" cylinders - one on the 3 point and one on the front to raise the blade.
Kinda convoluted but it worked good.
If I did it again I would just use the test port and chain the lift arms down.

The next task was how to get 20" of lift out of a 12" cylinder?
It took me a little thinking to figure it out but I contrived this lift amplifier and it worked slick.

Lastly, I replaced the center pin in the front axle and hung the plow and frame off of this tongue looking thing.

With wheel weights and good snow chains the tractor made a great little snow mover.
I sold it off long ago though so don't ask me for any measurements. All I have from it are these few pictures but maybe they will give you some ideas.
 
Hi. Thank you so much for the pictures. They will come in very handy. The two cylinder idea was a great idea.,I am a Journey man heavy duty mechanic so I have great mechanical skills and have very good welding skill too, I have franticated a lot of things in the past.

I am hopeing to build a blade that is very close to the original dearborn cable lift blade. I have a couple 9 N tractors that I am totally rebuilding and wanting to put blades on them and put rotor tillers and lawn mowers with them so I can sell them for Acerage tractors. They are a huge hit up here in northern Alberta.
 
you should look around for old water tank or large propane tank or old mining tank of some sort to make the blade out of it saves a lot of work and cost and you will have enough left over to make several snow blades. I have a home made blade for my 2N that is 6' wide and set up for the 3 point but that is easy to change. I plan to make it fit the loader as well as the 3 point. there are a lot of plans here on the site.
