Snowplow question

I have a chance to buy a 70 F250 4wd tow truck pretty reasonably ($1500 obo). Everything works.

I own a Northman plow that used to be on my 79 F150 before I sold the truck.

Will my plow brackets mount up underneath or will I need a different mounting bracket?

Any info would be appreciated.

I believe there is a difference between the 2 trucks regarding the space between the frame rails. So, If it mounts to the frame, you may need new brackets.

One of the other guys can confirm. We don't see many snow plows here in Texas :-)

The framerails are spaced farther apart on the 79F150 than they are on the 70. So you may have to tweak things a bit to make it fit. Nothing an arc welder can't handle. DF
