Has anyone ever tried a rear axle mount blade as compared to a front frame mount?
I understand the concept but I don't know how I feel about pushing off the rear axle. I've been know to use my plow as a battering ram once or twice trying to push snow back farther and the added stress on the rear axle I don't feel good about. Would rather have the frame absorb the shock load. Just my thoughts on the matter.
