Thanks fanatic. I recently just upgraded it with a steel rod for the pivot point, another 2x4 on the back and 45deg. angle supports. works alot better now.

Could you post some pics of how it angles?

the plow itself angles. you take a pin out and move the plow angles to the left or the right. its not in the mount itself.

This is the rear rack I just made for added weight. Not bad, looks decent too.

And yes I'm going to add a cable and support to the other side as well. The Pacer game is on now so I'm done for the night.

How does the angle plate attach to your push arms?

well now, i drilled a hole through a 2x4 and put a piece of roundstock steel through it. i drilled bigger holes in the tractor frame down pieces and put the ends of roundstock through them and put a pin so it couldnt come out.

tomorrow i will try to get pictures to show you now how i did it. its kind of dark now:laughing: i also have a weight box for my tractor too. i recently just put a redneck rigged support on it too. screwed a random 2x4 i found with nails sticking out cut an angle to hook onto the ball hitch mount on the back and screwed it through the bottom of the box. i just put rocks in the back for extra weight. you have any pictures of your plow?
