Anybody Plow?
« on: November 02, 2011, 05:02:41 PM »
I live in Northern IN so we can get a good amount of snow most of winter. I know these little things prolly cant push too much snow. But. I was kinda thinking about maybe trying not make some extra money by plowing driveways or small parking lot. Can they handle much? Would it be worth it or be too much for the little truck?

I used a ATV to plow snow, as well as a Rhino. You would want to size the plow proportionaly. As far as plow lifting that could be electric winch style or you would probably have to fab a hydraulic pump in the A/C compressors location. You could move a fair amount of snow. You would probably need a spacer that slips between the coils of the front springs, that will be a fair amount of weight out front when the blade is lifted.
