Ford 8N Snow Plow

[@alleygangde]

This is a Dearborn universal frame. There were three blades available. A straight side dozer blade (model 19-2) for moving heavy materials like dirt or stone. A curved side snow blade (model 19-3) for plowing snow, it also had springs that would allow the blade to flop forward when striking a curb or other object under the snow. Last was a V-plow (model 19-4) used for heavy deep snow. These were common up north where snowfalls exceed a foot or more on average Any info can be found by searching Ford Dearborn dozer blade Hope this helps

Thank You For this info, I just picked one of these up too, a 19-2, My concern is NO SPRINGS, impacting a hidden object under the snow could cause damage I would think... Can you add Springs somehow?

There was a brief shot of the tachometer lower right side of the console which tells me this is not a 1949 8N rather a 1952 8N, the only year Ford had a tachometer on the 8N series before going to the NAA/Jubilee and later powermaster/workmaster. I have rebuilt several of these. Nice set up

Nice looking tractor.. Need to keep it inside... :)

Very nice, the wife likes this style so much she tried to win one in a raffle, thanks for posting and have fun!

Have one for my 1950 Ferguson that uses aux. port on side of rear housing to lift n lower using draft lever. It,s for sale on Craigs List in Bassett Va.

This is ingenious engineering.

[@Lanninglongarmmowing]

That's a really cool plow setup. Wow.

[@larrywoodruff7530]

Arps plow, state of the art engineering at the time.

[@CVD-di1xn]

I like it. The design is simple and functional.

[@MrDanoconnor]

Just Picked up one of these for My Ford. Could you possibly do a Slow Walk around with close ups video of the Plow Attachment Points, explaining exactly where it Bolts and where the Cables attach. Thanks, DanO'

[@octane2099]

What’s the color code and brand on the grey color looks like how my 9N should look all grey

[@jayyoung2586]

Definitely the wrong color for an 8N.

[@scottfoster2487]

I would to see more on the blade set up.

[@slaughterhound8793]

I guess weather fluctuations like that must occur everywhere. Living down in the South I've gotten used to them.

[@duanebolen8359]

They were made my Dearborn equipment

[@kirk-nj6344]

The blade is a dearborn angle dozer blade. The frame is NOT a dearborn. It is an ARPS frame. The frame is strong and less likely to twist like the dearborn. IMO

[@whspioneer89]

Dearborn made snow plows like that.

[@msmiller6881]

Hi could you send me a copy of the pdf for this snow plow thanks

[@ournovascotiaadventure1619]

Nice looking tractor

[@logansprock2357]

Dearborn made one similar to that one. Yours is a little different though.

[@LawnGardenFun]

very cool!

[@duanebolen543]

That is not a 49 it has the tachometer and they were built in late 51 up until 52 m-53 the jubilee

[@jayyoung2586]

It outta be a crime to paint an 8N the wrong colors.

[@muhtesemicatlar6467]

Süper machina

[@davesmith1771]

Poor engineering at best, but equally fascinating.

[@christinewoodruff4980]

Wrong, state of the art during that time.
