I had a 30 yard pile of dirt given to me by the County. Had to spread it. I started it by hand and after 2 hours gave up in the 84 deg heat. Went to steel fab shop and picked up 16 bucks worth off the short rack. Layed it all out under the WD on floor and clamped together. Welded it all up and painted it and here it is. All of 25 bucks into it. Top link was laying on a shelf in barn so that's extra $$   Probably won't due for real heavy duty work but sure works good with my 6 foot back blade. Just wanted to share.....not that hard to make! ------------- Life is short...Make haste to be kind |

That is pure American ingenuity. It even looks like the traction booster might work if you were plowing with it.

I did one similar years ago for a WD to mount a Cat 1 blade on. Was for a small town to blade the side streets and alleys. It wont work for heavy stuff but filled need. Nice paint, matchs real good!!! |
