Racinbob 13,246 #26929 Posted 3 hours ago (edited) @squonk @ebinmaine I'm about to head out to meet another member that has a 48" dozer blade (+/- 2 hours) for me so I'm out of time this morning. I have questions later. Edited 3 hours ago by Racinbob 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
