Be sure to have front weight.

My first plow, wheels off the ground.

Fab’d a front bumper, added suitcase weights. :handgestures-thumbupright:

Hopefully you already have the rear sleeve/clevis/slot hitch, and the Brinley moldboard plow, the rest really is trial and error, but there is a video or 2 of properly setting up the tractor and plow on YouTube I have viewed them myself, you can also download the Brinley plow owner's manual from Brinley's site, Jeff.

How did you make the bumper?  Looks great.

Just installed my plow today for the first time.  It's a 10 inch plow,  so I lifted the left side 5 inches and then adjusted plow.

Here's my blue prints... I don't have ability to make anymore, but a decent machine shop shouldn't have any problems.
