Chris the demo truck was a 91 Cummins 3/4 ton. Didn't look that good but they said this was not just a demo truck but also plowed the industrial park where the dealer was.

I just got two of the 810's on my dodges
2002 carrys it OK but the 98.5 needs help, both are diesels
I bought the 047/048 springs to install on the 98.5.
had to take the bumper of the 98.5 to make it fit or i would have to cut it, and that was not an option

I'll have to drop out that way,to see that plow,and a few beers.We got one call today for spot salting,but that's it.Where were you plowing ? Newmarket ?
Who is carrying them out your way ?

JD,what a monster!!. is that fisher an 8'6"?It looks like a 6.5 fter off a small truck in front of the 8611.How does it handle the weight of the plow?.
JD PLOWER
11-13-2003, 10:22 PM
Thanks Guys :grinz
John the truck handles the plow fine considering I have no ballast in the dump yet. It dropped just over an inch (I'll post some photos tom.) when I lifted it. I wish I had brought my camera when I picked it up. It was next to an 810 and it made that lok small :nod4
