Grading want to add a hydraulic dozer blade

[lowflying90]

where do i get one of these blocks to screw hydrualic lines into like the aluminum one in this picture?

i need to get one or make one so that i can install the lines to run my 702 blade on either my ford 1500 or ford 1700 tractor.

thanks,
jeff

it looks like it goes underneath this part.

run a search on power beyond from what I remember, there are a few pics that show the plate in detail... enough detail for a diy

If this is on the FEL, you might think of the torquing stresses you'll be putting on the arms...

no, its a 702 blade made for the 1500-1600-1700 tractors. bolts on the frame using some of the engine bolts and on the front below the hood hinges. i can't find this power beyond website. do you have a link?

found this picture. the one in this picture appears to have a lower mount going back towards the footrests. the one i have came off a tractor was dealer installed. i wonder if the one in this picture is modified.

the one in your second pic uses the same connection points (FEL attachment)as the NH full frame backhoe on my 1720. Wouldn't hurt to run some extra steel to those points if yours doesnt IMO.. that's a great attachment btw
use the search feture on the top, not working for me at the moment, but all the info is on this very site.... (only the best tractor site on the www)

so did you make your own block? did you have an insert on the backside for the orings to go into

never got around to it.. I've been happy running the hoe off the rear remote.
Yes, you will defenitely need the oring grooves machined into the plate.
