When i purchased my 700 the guy gave me a cycle country plow mount. The part# is right 15-2570. IS IT SUPPOSED TO BE 2 PIECE? This one is. It didnt come with u bolts or anything so i guess i will have to pick some up if that is how it mounts.
i am in the same situation now .. anyone that can take a few photos of their prairie plow mount thats under their engine for me ?
i am buying a used cycle country plow and need to see what the measurements are between the mounting 'ears' for the push tubes and the specific mounting location .. that way i can weld up a plate myself .
Here are some pics of a cycle country plow mount on my Prairie 360. If you need better pics of the measurements let me know. My mount came off a brute but I adjusted it to fit on my prairie.
interesting ... so the 2 metal strips that run parallel to the quad attach to the quads tube framing via ubolts , BUT the strip that runs across those strips(with the mounting dog ears) uses 2 ubolts and ONLY connects to the other 2 strips? it dosnt connect to a cross-member on the frame ? so all the plow is held on by is really the 4 ubolts on the 2 strips connected to the frame....
its fine , i mean its not like were pushing concrete blocks . we would lose traction before thos ubolts would slip ! .
i see in some installation videos the quad is like yours ... almost totally vertical to aide in installation .. i can do that , but i always though you dont want a motor with oil in it to be tilted to extreme angles cus oil likes to go places it doesnt belong ...
i guess its not true unless your totally upside down eh ?
one more thing . when i type in the mount we need for the prairie 700 (or 650 brute sra , 650 prairie.. all in the same) , it comes up as item # 15-2570 .... check out the link below .
its weird since it looks nothing like yours ... might be a stock photo, but i found the same pic on a few other sites. Amazon.com: Cycle Country Plow Blade Mounting Kit 15-2570: Automotive
I don't know about the angle on the engine. I have never had any problems with it yet. As for the picture of the mount being different, I don't know how they make the mounts now. Mine is an older one. I like the pic of the one on amazon. It looks a little more sturdy than mine.
