Winter is reaching… I have a plan to install a snow plow on my pickup truck that I can remove the snow with ease without the help of any snow removal service providers. I surfed google and found out these instructions. Here it goes.
-Determine the curb weight of the vehicle. The total weight of the vehicle should not exceed the gross vehicle weight rating and gross vehicle axle weight rating. The weight of the passenger and the weight of the load carried in the bed are also included in the total weight.
-Check out the plow packages. Choose a plow packages that are compatible with your truck. Generally, the plow packages contain a scraper, snow plow hardware, wiring system.
-Assemble the snow plow hardware and scraper as the manufacturer’s instruction. Jack the truck up to work underneath the vehicle. Attach the mounting brackets of the snow plow and mount the hardware to the frame of the truck. Connect the snow plow’s wiring system to the battery and winch. Then attach the plow to the hardware.
I’m planning to follow these instructions, before proceeding with this, I would like to get your suggestions and ideas on this.
