Snowplow mount log splitter?

[hwstem]

I just bought a Ford 601 Workmaster with a front mounted Dearborn snow plow, I just took the blade off today and was looking at the frame with the hydraulic cylinder to lift the frame where the blade mounted, and I was thinking about building a bolt on I beam, about a foot long that runs in the direction the tractor faces and them about a three foot length on the top of the first, to step up the hight, one foot welded onto the one foot section on the bottom and the front 24 inches hanging out so the bottom of the top Ibeam is higher than the shorter bottom length of Ibeam, on the overhanging top Ibeam mount a four way splitting wedge facing down. To split wood sections standing on end. With the blade on I was easily able to lift the front end off the ground with the hydraulic down force. I know this must sound confusing, but what's your thoughts on this?
Thanks,

You will find the force generated by the down pressure on the snow plow will only split the easiest wood. Hydraulic splitters talk about TONS of force. I do mean 10-20 tons of force.

I had never thought if it that way, the front of my tractor weighs next to notthing compared to the force behind an actual log splitter. Thanks for your input JD Seller!

A friend told me about seeing a loader mounted splitter. Drive up to a four foot length lower splitter down onto it throw the lever. It was an older gentleman who with it needs to lift only the split pieces by hand.

Not even going to begin to begin working! That dinky little plow ram is way too small and the hyd pump on the Ford isn't going to begin to make enough pressure.

Sorry.
