Here is the six way blade for 543. Note that the blade push arms are attached to the U-Bolt bracket in the front and two hyd. cyls. to the rear of the bracket. Rear end of cyls. has frame bracket. Stock swing frame and tie rods are retained with out the stock steering cyl.

Just so I am sure I understand this. The frame that the blade is attached to is attached to the front of the ubolt brackets. The steering cylinders are attached to the backside of the same bracket. So you have eliminated the radiused support channel that would normally support the front axle and used the steering cylinders for that function?

You got it until the last sentence. The axle, springs, fifth wheel are all stock. I made the U-bolt brackets on which the blade frame pivots up and down.
