Snow Destruction System Feel free to Add your OWN!
 

So finally got around to getting the 782 BEAST set up for snow removal.
had to fab up some new brackets for the Power angle blade. Since the 782 has larger tires, and a supersteer front axle the blade when angled was up almost an inch at the corners. and we wanted the R-Bucket to lift just a bit higher.
The blade lifts around 8" and the bucket at the cutting edge is 26" up so can dump a lot higher. so with 1000# lift on the 3pt and 14,5" travel between the R-bucket and the Angle blade I dont think I will have any trouble with Any amount of snow that we would get this year. Hope to have the hydraulic top link on before Snow hits. That should make the bucket have another few inches and make it flatten out at about top seat level.
Now I Just Need Snow....:biggrin2:

Always love seeing this one. It's just cool to see what you guys can do.

I have some crazy ideas for the future of this one.

Let's cut the blade in half vertically and put one cylinder on each side connected to the other empty ports. Then you can v the blade or go the other way and make it a u for more pushing like the newer snow plows that are out there.

Or a left or right or both mid wing style for more area, I know it can handle it.

Or a grapple attachment on the back of the R bucket, yeah!

lol we were just talking about both of those last night.
I thing by next winter. mainly because we need to install 2 more diverters so we would have the ability to use them independently with just a flick of a switch.
Today we are adding a hydraulic top link.

That's cool, we think alike. I'm hoping it snows like crazy near you, would like to see a video of that baby. I think I remember a video of you moving some pea gravel or something with the bucket.

You are definitely ready for some snow!

:OMG::Shocked::Shocked::Shocked::Shocked:

I think he has your shop bugged!!! Every stinking idea we have been talking about THIS guy just brought up!! SCARY!! LOL

Oh yeah, a plow like say a Boss with independent sweeps would be, well sweet.:beerchug:

Its in ths plans! Right now we are working on the hydraulic top link. Its a little project, but will be useful / usable when done... :beer2:

Hurry up slow poke's. :biggrin2:

:popcorn:

Be a bit, going to try something different, think he found a different cylinder he likes lol.

Its usable! Highspeed hasnt posted a pic yet cuz we need to change a few things, but we tried it. But for a teezer pic, heres the bucket with a regular old top link. Cutting bit is 25.5" off the ground. The way the hydraulic top link works presently it will roll the bucket back to where the cutting edge is 30.5". When we change the brackets around, it will be around 32 to 33" off the ground. :beer2:

With the hydraulic top link in play in its current state, the cutting edge hits me mid, to upper thigh and im 6'

With the hydraulic top link in play, and the way the bucket dumps, we are thinking it will be able to dump into a yard cart. Again, this pic is just the 3pt lift height, it is not with the hydraulic top link.

It would clear my #2 cart for sure! :BlahBlah:

The hydrolic top link is genius!
Great work as always! :beerchug:

Great work as always guys!:beerchug:

How do you have your hydraulics plumbed? I'm getting ready to add a second and third valve to my 2182 and was planning on having the second valve run to the front right couplers like from the factory and teeing the third valve to the front left and to a set of couplers at the back. The second set of couplers at the front would allow for running a V plow at some point.

You guys are awesome! :beerchug:

Fantastic work! :beerchug:

Get with Rescue11 he is the mastermind behind the Hydraulics on her.
I'm sure he will be happy to help/gloat :biggrin2::biggrin2:

Yea, hey, no problem. Btdt, its not difficult. Time consuming, yes if you wanted to look nice. But since your 2182 has stack valves, you will need to buy studs at the tune of about $20 per and o-rings so that you can pack all the valves together. Do not over tighten your stack valves or they will not move very well.

The rest is plumbing, which is in my bag of tricks as an occupation. That 782 has around 90 feet of steel hydraulic tubing all hand cut flared and bent with over 40 individual joints. Probably best you peruse this thread http://onlycubcadets.net/forum/showt...t=31710&page=8
