It was super easy on this blade. All I had to do was wrench it down.
You can see where a previous owner welded hitch balls on the other side of the blade.
I would have used one of those but the blade is too long spin around when its mounted to the tractor.
Was worth the $10 for a new ball to avoid the aggravation of unhooking/spinning/rehooking twice.
