Good buy?

I've noticed mine doesn't have a lever to change the angle. It has a big pin and 5 holes. Kind of a pain to change it.

That's how mine is. If I don't get a blower, I will probably fabricate an electric angle system.

Is this an older model plow I have? I think the original owner bought everything as a package back in 98. I searched Argo plows and only brought up one picture of one like mine. It doesn't have the normal trip springs like most plow set ups. It has what almost looks like 2 shocks with a coil spring over each one. It works pretty decent from what little I got to plow with it. You can almost make them out in the one picture at the top of the thread.

Yep older plow mid to latter eightys same one I got that was on my Magnum vintage 1988 now on my Avenger 2 coil over gas charged shocks for trip has worked well and is now 25 plus plus years old gettin pretty beat up now but been great.NCT

Hey jlemon, I have the same setup, I used it to redo the front yard about 6 dump truck loads of soil and i use it to plow snow It does fine with just tires and I use it most the time in high gear.
If the snow gets to heavy...take littler bites ..but it should do great 90% the time.

Does yours have a wear bar and skids? Mine doesn't have adjustable skids but it looks like it has a wear bar with a piece of 1" pipe welded to the bottom.

Mine originally had a pair of plastic skids perhaps a inch thick or more so but long gone.NCT

I noticed a ticking sound from the chains when I first brought it home. I lubed all of them up and it didn't go away. I pulled the floor pans off and noticed both of the top tension pads were missing on the adjusters under the seat. I found one but the other is MIA. I also have the chains rubbing the frame in one spot. Guess I'll order new pads and a couple for over the frame. Looks like new chains this summer.

Mine has metal skids and wear bar.
