Attention anyone with a plow truck

I recently bought a Meyer 7.5 plow to put on my w250, but there are a couple parts that i am missing. The lower vehicle mount. I was told i was basicly thick angle iron with a couple tabs to pin the plow a frame too. I was basicly wondering if any of you with an older meyers plow could take a couple pics of the vehicle side, so i can reference them when i get the piece built.

Well that would be a bit of a drive for a free part. I'd imagine you aren't planning any trips to the Pittsburgh area? If I have a chance I'll pull the grapevines off it and see about getting a few dimensions. This plow frame is the older style that has the angle bent around 180 degrees at the top, correct?

Sorry, sold off that Meyer plow setup. Put a Fisher Minute mount 1 pushplates on the old girl now.

What exact part are you referring to? Bumper ears?

I'm buying one this weekend and i'll be able to get pictures then, if nobody else has.

Just wondering....

In Pennsylvania, the answer is yes because the plow is detachable. Also, when in doubt check with your local state inspection guy, the one who physically does the inspection.

Well I went out today to get a few measurements and was surrounded by a small swarm of bees nested in the ground right in the area where I need to get into and lay down to measure.
