noob question: How would I weigh down the front?

edit: sp error

Front weights, check the Deere site or your dealer. I think you can put 42# weights, probalby around 5 weights.

Who is the TBN member with the Kubota and the Arctic plow that's all tricked-out? (I remember it had flashers on the sides and all kinds of neat add-ons)

I just picked up an Arctic 8' skid steer plow for my M-7040. :thumbsup:
I want to put skid shoes on the Q/A mount plate. I think he did the same with his.

Maybe this is the one your referring to..

Should have known it would be that easy, I didn't realize the front weights would work with the FEL on.

Thanks

4shorts,

You are very talented. I wish there was someone close to me that could teach me to do an 1/8 of what you can.

Keep posting your mods, so I can keep being jealous.

I was asking about weighing down the front end also. I have a brush guard, Plus once the front mount snowblower is on there doesnt seem like there is enough room for a set of weights.

Thank you very much for your kind words although I think I've been given way to much credit :eek: Thanks again :thumbsup:

Yes! Thanks for replying 4 Shorts!
I just got my Arctic skid steer plow. I wanted to ask you if you mounted "shoes" to your quick attach mounting plate?
I had a problem with my Q/A plate last year "sagging" down while plowing and scratching pavement.:ashamed:

I already mounted a pair of the old Meyers "disc" type shoes so the Q/A plate & loader arms can't damage the pavement this winter.

Will post pictures soon as I get it together.

When I did the modification I originally just had the skids on the blade but after using it a few times I found that if I didn't pay really good attention to the tilt angle the rear of the "A" frame would dig into the ground. I added two rear skids and it's been the best addition I've made so far. No problems after. Here's some pics.
