I have a kubota l4330 with the qa set up and have chance to by a, in good shape, 7 ft fissher plow for short cash and would like to convert for my tractor. Has anyone retrofitted a minute mount fisher plow with a standard quick attach plate for a tractor or skidsteer.

Any help would be appreciated, I just do not want to recreate the wheel if someone has already created. Thanks Mike

Yes Mike I have done it and its no biggy. I used a 7-1/2' fisher plow on my 3830. Send your email address to me in a PM and I will send you some pic's. Otherwise all you need to do is create a setup for your QA like it would be on the truck.

For encouragement, enjoy this from one of our members (NorthernMainer):
YouTube - John Deere with Fisher Plow

There are many examples here of the truck plow on our tractors, hunt around a bit here (search: fel plow snowplow) and I am sure you will find a good example to copy.

On my 3430 I have a quick attach FEL. I bought a QA blank from the web and welded on the truck's lower mount to it. The plow clips and pivots off that as it did on the truck.

Twisting the plow right and left will take a bit more effort and perhaps will be the larger investment of this process.

I was able to add a third control to my loader but many have done this with electrical diverter valves. Again, many examples are here on the site.

Good luck and enjoy the big plow when you have it finished!!!
