[AT] Shhhh! Quiet

[Cecil Bearden]

I bought an old OK hwy dept truck last week and a snowplow.  However it 
does not have the lift system for the plow.  The truck has a hydraulic 
system that is great, with  electric control valves inside the hydraulic 
tank with a front mounted pump.  I bought it to make a tractor hauler 
with it.  Problem is getting to an area to work in that is not 1 1/2 ft 
deep in snow.  I have 2 other plows and a lift bracket with the 
cylinder, but still have to build attachments  to the truck.  With 30mph 
  NW wind and wet cold feet again for the 50th time in the last 3 days, 
I am not going to get it mounted....
