I am in the process of restoring an old Meyers 7 1/2' plow with the intention of mounting it to the front of my Kubota L4330. I was planning on building my own subframe and attaching it to the bachhoe/loader subframe in the middle of the tractor and the brush guard in the front of the tractor. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? One other question - I also considered putting on the Kubota plow undercarriage and then modifying the plow to fit that, but I am concerned about cost. Does anyone know what the subframe alone for a front plow/blower/broom costs?
Thanks,
John Pruskowski

John, why not just cut right to the chase and put the plow on the FEL itself, in place of the bucket?
See my picture # 15.
It not only gives you far better visibility, but it also gives you better control of the plow and the ability to stack much better, or even knock down piles when they get to high.
Best of luck. ....

On my 3410 I mounted the blade to the loader frame. It was way too long and it was difficult to get the blade elevation just right.
When I bought the L3430 I used a Meyer subframe cross piece and bolted it to the mount for the grill guard. I than used the mounts for the lift cylinder and welded them to the grill guard. The hydraulics are controlled by the loader valve. It works great.
E-mail me if you want pictures. ....
