Recommend P/A snowplow

What plow are you using? I'm looking at Curtis and Wildcat. Must be 7.5' and power angling.

I would prefer a poly blade

Would like to save some money, anyone got anything to share?

I got a 7 1/2' Hinker Big Ox with quick attach. They are made for skidsteers, but mine works great for my FEL. I had my tractor dealer order it site unseen, and it's worked out better than expected.

I did look at Hinikers. Is your's a poly moldboard? Can you tell me what you paid for it or PM me what you paid for it?

Thanks

I paid around $2300, including delivery to my door, hydraulic hoses, and fittings. Mine is steel, not poly.

Seems like the only possible poly plow might be a Curtis, although they haven't answered me yet if they make a poly moldboard for their tractor plow.

Somewhere I read the poly blades are heavier than steel blades; might want to check it out.

I'd be OK with them being heavier. I've had dozens on steel moldboards and I was impressed with the poly moldboards. I hate rust and although the entire plow isn't poly, it's just one less thing to rust & repaint.
