is it time to give up?

plow is junk. I'm scrambling now to try to get a conventional Fisher mounted on my 82 before this weeks storm. My Blizzard angles left and right and pushes snow, but it only lifts about 3 inches because the pivot pin is worn out (again). The box is rotted and cracked on the left side and I have been pushing thru it, a tripspring got knocked off so now it trips too easy. About all it's good for is a yard plow. If I can get something else working soon I'll sell it cheap.
 
well the Fisher didnt work out, so the Blizz is in the shop getting welded and plated up, trying to sqeak by a little longer. The left slide box on the rear rotted and the trip part tore right off. Plow was about ready to fall off the truck. Going to plate over the back and then re attach the trip part right to the new steel, hopefully it will work. I think a lot of the problem of it not lifting high enough was because of this being half unattached. The pivot pin is loose, but it's not all the problem.
Let me know what you think it's worth, I'll give you a good deal on it. The blade is all welded up, but the cutting edge is good, the angle cylinders are both recent, and the electric and hydraulic parts work good. If it lives through this storm I'll take some pictures of it for you, before you start throwing numbers around.
