 Topic: Allis Chalmers D moldboard

Looking for a scrapped model D grader which would have a 10' moldboard for sale. I have a 12' but prefer a 10'.

I agree that the 12' moldboard is too big for a grader that size unless you are grading long straight wide roads. Mine had a 12' moldboard and I simply cut 1' off each end. Believe it or not I used an 8" Black & Decker saw with a metal cutting blade to do the job. It took about 30 minutes per side and I used less than two blades for the job.

We have discussed simply cutting it off as well. We may have to go that route. It has a bit of a curve to it as well, as most of them that age do.
