Sold my BX1860 and just picked up a 318 last week and then found a nice 54" front blade. The blade was originally made for the 318 but was modified to fit the wider 400 series frame. It was done nicely with solid steel blocks and good welding ability. So good, that it looks like a pain to cut it back apart and re-weld at the 318 frame width. Anyone know if the front mount is still available from deere? I cannot find a schematic or a part number. I would rather purchase a new mount if its not ridiculously priced (yeah right) and then keep this modified mount in case I ever get a larger tractor. I might also consider swapping mounts with someone who has the opposite problem I have and is considering buying a frame squeezer for their 400 series. Thanks for the help!
