    Snow plow guys

    Any recommendations on 8 ft snow pusher for skid steer? I’m liking the express steel with pullback bar. Price seems to be good at 1900.00

    I’d go with a plow system like BOSS or similar that can be angle adjusted and has trip springs. Those springs do wonders in minimizing damage of things hidden under snow.

    parking lots... I didn’t know you can get pushers with trip springs. Thought those only on snow plows

    I have order a couple attachments back when I had my skid steer from this company. I was happy with the quality and operation of the attachments I had.

    Like said above I would highly recommend whatever you get to have a trip edge. Hitting a raised manhole cover at full steam with a fixed edge pusher will literally put your face smushed up against the front glass..... Believe I KNOW......

    it dont take much speed at all to put your a$$ in the windshield.. i wouldn't push snow with anything that didn't have trip springs..
    And wear them belts and cinch em tight!!

    This might be best of both worlds between a plow and a pusher for you. Runs like a pusher and has trip edge and angle.
