Today at a townhome complex I saw a SS with a box plow that was removable from the blade. It was a "go" brand something. talk about smooth, back drag all the drives then put the box attachment on and clean-up. who makes this thing? It looked like a 8 footer.

Dosent sound familiar, I have done a lot of research on the web about SS box plows.......I ended up getting a couple this last fall, but never saw anything with "go" in it? "go go gadget box plow" ? :grinz
find out the full name? I would like to see something about that?

Probably an Easy-on pusher (http://www.easyonsystem.com/home/), they're made here in MN...

That easyon looks kinda chinsy? I would much rather have my dedicated plow and dedicated pusher, IMO. The efficiency difference would make it well worth getting out of the cab for 5 sec to hook up your hydraulics.

Well, for doing these tight little townhomes that keep popping up around here, I think it's a neat concept! You get these little 1.5 car wide streets and 6 short little driveways on a dead end (no culdesac/turnaround) drive... It's a bitch to get a truck in those places, and if you back drag all the driveways, then hook up the pusher and go back thru, you'll have a mess, and a lot of ticked off residents with piles everywhere waiting to be pushed down. With an easy on, you could start at one end and work your way through, very efficient. In an ideal world, you'd have a skidder pulling snow out of the driveways, and a truck with an 810/8611lp pushing piles down to the ends, but most sites don't pay well enough to justify more than 1 piece of equipment. I think they're a great idea!

I agree the "concept" is great.......it just looks really light weight. In the pics it shows it being used and it appears that theres no way to put any down pressure when the pusher is hooked up??? I dont know for sure ,never heard of em till now, but at least if the pusher gets all boogered up(which that thing would after a good snowy winter)you still have your blade!!!

In posted the link a while ago and I think the pricing too. I thought it was an awesome concept, best of both worlds.

Mark, I knew it had been posted, but couldn't remember what it was called or who posted it. A quick google search turned it up though... sheep
