Jim, I think the snowblower is out due to the crushed stone surface, too hard on the blower and anyone in the area. You can mount a PTO blower on the front with a gearbox and shafts but you would lose the PTO for your salt spreader. There are hydraulic run blowers but I don't think your pump on the 584 is heavy enough. I would get some lugs welded in your present bucket and mount the plow in the bucket. This would give you the option of plowing or piling the snow by just removing a few pins. I do this at my place and it works great. You will need the chains and extra weight on the rear but the sander should help there. Chains on the front wheels do not help much in my opinion. Make sure your plowblade is wide enough to clear the rear wheels when it is angled, mine is 9 feet. There are blades for sale in The Want ADvertiser in your area, you can buy it at convenience stores Unimog
