Anybody build their own snow blade frame?

Recommended Posts

Looking for ideas and such, I'm thinking about building my own snow plow frame to put on the 520.

Has anyone done this? What kind of steel did you use? Thinking about using angle instead of c channel, wondered if it would be plenty strong enough for maybe a 60" blade.

My dad made one for the d160 and it looks to be 2" rectangular/square tubing

I used a standard WH plow frame. Mounted a gravely plow to it. It was so tall had to cut 1/2 off. Works very well. Unlike the WH plow it'll never bend.

Made one using 1-1/2" angle iron. Made the axle mounts from larger angle iron, 4" x 1-1/2" if I remember.

 

Was fairly easy, I received the blade, freebie without a frame. Had to do something?

End of the frame, at the axle, I only used pins; one left, one right.

 

Worked fine and I painted it Rustoleum Regal Red.  :)
