Dude...love the truck and love the plow. I run 2 - 8' 6" of the same plow. One has the 12" wings on it. You plow and use your blade just like I would in a driveway like that. I would only offer to you that, when dropping your plow to backdrag away from from the structure...give it a few wiggles left and right to settle the blade to the surface as you reverse. It helps to keep the blade from lifting.
@@NEILSWORLD When I get those heavy drifts by garage doors I drop the plow and wiggle my way to surface and then reverse scoop just past straight and keep wiggling the controller as I back out with the snow. Give it a shot. Your plow is a couple hundred pounds heavier than mine so back dragging is a little easier.
Lol, left thumb does the plow operation on an eight button controller and right first finger usually hits the shifter by reaching through the wheel. The end of my finger was sore after the first day of plowing.😆
Love that set up. I was wondering why you were pushing snow that you were then going to backdrag and then I saw your explanation on the screen. Good tip!
Nice lift before decimating the fence! ;-) That machine has a lot of inertia, I’d imagine you are planning the forward motion out while still in reverse. ;-)
GF said regular speed filming preferred : ) Slo-mo good too. High speed, not so much. lol This a really a nice machine. Glad it is working out well. Did you make a custom attachment?
Love it! May I ask how much you paid for that truck and where you got it? How much for fixing it up if needed and how much for plow? Was plow mount custom, or made for that truck by factory?
I paid about $8,000 for the truck at government auction. Then there are fees and delivery. It's a gamble at the auction what you're going to get and how much needs to be repaired. This truck did not engage in reverse. I have countless hours of time invested as I have done all the work to it myself including the custom snow plow mount. Check out fmtvsales.com he goes through the mechanically and offers a six-month warranty.
NEILVVT ok we were looking for different ways to secure our tanks down.. we have gas caddes but then you gotta drill the flatbed and then it rusts ... thanks
