Is there a simple blade for the front of an older L185 2WD? Looking for something to plow snow off the driveway for a L185 I just got. I searched this site and didn't anything that wasn't a snow blower or a front bucket.

Probably more than one choice. The hard part is locating one especially in your area. You can always post a wanted in the Buy and Sell forum. If you are up to it a small used truck plow and a welder might be your best bet.

Here is a KUFD210 with manual angle, Fully hydraulic plows without all that undercarriage structure were also offered on some models.

I have added a picture showing the valve and more detail of the front mount.

In my limited experience I've seen no front blades for tractors. I've mostly seen rear blades for the three point. My neighbor has a front blade for his garden tractor but it's manually operated. I realize yours is far more than a garden tractor and you have hydraulics a garden tractor lacks but you may be on your own for a blade. My neighbor has pallet forks he puts on in place of his loader bucket. These were modified from three point pallet forks. I suppose the same could be done with a blade - assuming you have a loader on the front of the tractor to start with.
