Well this is the particular model of blade it's a Degelman 3500 with underslung mounting. Unfortunately i cant link the picture through the spam filter on this website. So ill try to post it here.
As you can see that plow blade takes up a lot of the potential mounting space and then there's the back blade on the 3 point hitch as well adding to the mess.
As to some other questions in the thread, ya we do have chains, 4 wheel drive, and so forth but the issue isn't sliding so much as it is that we're plowing a rough forest road with a ditch both sides.
When 1 or more foot of snow falls on the road you cant see where the ditch is which is where problems tend to occur because driving even slightly into it causes the whole tractor to fall in and then you have a huge problem.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
