Snow Plowing with a B7200

[capekubota]

I am looking at purchasing a B2763 full frame front plow for a 1986 B7200. It would need slight modifications to fit the frame (frame not as wide). I am wondering if anyone has plowed snow with B7200 and a 5 foot snow blade? Would the B7200 handle that size blade fine?

Can not confirm on that tractor, but did have a B2320 HSD with a 5' back blade. It worked OK in light snow, but would push the rear end sideways in heavy snow. The B2320 is a little heavier than yours and I had loaded tires on top of that. So as far as a front blade is concerned, the front would be lighter yet and with the blade angled, I would think you would have a tough time not pushing the front sideways in heavy snow. A 48" - 52" blade would cover your tire tracts and may work better. But take that for what it is worth... not comparing apples to apples, but that would be my guess and the reasoning behind it

Is it a B7200D (4wd)?
If it is, it should work out fine.
Adding rear ballast, rear chains, and ballasting the tires will make it even better.
