Trouty56 565 #2 Posted March 10, 2015 Hi and welcome to the forum.....not sure what all you may have hanging under the tractor.....if it has the mower lift hanging there I use a small piece to attach the blade to it.....there are holes you can use....the piece i use might be 2 inches long or so....

groundhog47 347 #3 Posted March 10, 2015 (edited) to :rs:Apologies Ian, saw NEWBIE, thought you as Newbie now Is this a mid attach pulled, mid pushed, or front push blade. With rear mount sounds mid pushed or front pushed. Most it appears have a solid lift link. The mid mount from what little I know requires an angle in bend to clear steer stuff, pushed or pulled. The front push would work BEST, I'd s'pose, with a solid link as I believe it puts some down force aside from blade weight. If you wish to make one go in search>forums>>lift link. Vendors on here sell repro and Kelly may have some used. By the way, what is you location/where are you located Edited March 10, 2015 by groundhog47 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2bcross3 1 #4 Posted March 11, 2015 I have a 1 inch flat bar about 4 inches long I'm using between the lift bar and the lift tab on the frame of the plow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ian 0 #5 Posted March 13, 2015 thanks to all that replied to lifting of snow plow my blade is a older horse with no bracket on the blade to mount to the tractor . I will weld a piece of flat stock on the blade it will be trile and error to put the bracket in the right spot. on my 310 8 there are two brackets one is higher with holes in it and one is lower for the mower to mount on which bracket would I use ? thanks ian from mi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bmsgaffer 2,043 #6 Posted March 13, 2015 I think you should try to post pictures. Most people use a lift link that's pinned to the blade and then to the tractor (so it can flex and be removed). You may save yourself some trouble, as I am sure a member on here will sell or make you a link for a reasonable price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
