Topic

Sorry about that, I realized this was not a Deere centric topic so I stuck a copy over in implements (looking for widest desemination). I normally just hang on the Deere discussion group.
Back on topic, I was kinda looking for an off the shelf solution utilizing wheels (I realized early on that skid shoes were not the answer in my situation) but I guess it's fabrication time again.
Thanks everyone for your input.

I have a 5ft KK rear blade. This past week I had my first opportunity to "play in the snow" on my gravel drive. Since 3ph height control is somewhat lacking with the JD2210, I was wondering if anyone knows of guage wheel assemblies which could welded/bolted to the to the blade.

It finnaly turned cold this week here on the eastern shore of Maryland. Snow will probably happen soon. My question to some of you guys further north. Are tire chains required/desired/optional for a JD2210 using a FEL and 5 ft rear blade. We generally have two or three moderate snow events each year (6-12 inches each).<br>

Thanks,<br>

The other weekend I was cruising thru the Tractor Store and noticed a quick hitch frame. I think the price was around $170. Is this offering anything like the Deere iMatch? Which implements are iMatch compatable? Deere or TSC.

Thanks,
Mac:-)

One question. Is the degree of drop when you lower 3ph with the rock shaft lever controlable. In other words is there a way to rig it so that the 3ph drops to the same position each time the attachment is lowered.<br>
<br>
I was thinking along the lines of welding a chain hook near the end of each draft arm. Maybe an eye at the base of the top link. The idea being to calibrate the chain links to limit the amount of downward travel. <br>
I sort of remember someone disscussing such a rig on one of these boards. I was hoping somebody already had the engineering figured out. <br>

Update -
Last night I removed the MMM, it rolled out from under the tractor without problem. I used the FEL to suspend the deck while I hit it with the pressure washer and then tucked it away in the shed for the winter. I'm going to enjoy using the FEL for all my heavy lifting.

Again, thanks to everybody who expressed an opinion regarding the limit in limited 3 point hitch. At the end of the day I think we can say that the limit is related to the verticle lift due to smaller rear tires on the 2210. Most said this would be no problem for most attachments with exception of PHD operation. A solution to the PHD situation is to use a cat 0 PHD equiped with (cat 1) 7/8" lugs. A cat 0 auger depth is 32", the cat 1 auger depth is usually 44".
