SylvanLakeWH 29,264 #52 Posted October 26 IMG_8643.mov First try with back blade and rake... blade needs weight but functional. rake tines need to be trimmed 3" to raise / lower adequately. it binds up at top if I don't stop it in time. Thinking need to either add a hard stop or eliminate the parallel function and replace with single 2" square tube that simply pivots on one plane... use pin so I can raise / lower it on the vertical beam. Thoughts appreciated. Oh, and Denali liked the new flat area so much he pooped on it right at the end of the video...!!! IMG_8646.mov IMG_3645.mov 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

F-plate/frame reinforcement? Thank you. I'm not an engineer so I appreciate such input... it's mounted via a 2" hitch from wheel horse parts and more... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
