Been looking at the Eagle plow ETC (Power pivot), not sure if I will do it this year. Only thing new will be strobes (Smaller E3 type) and working on a backing plate for the rubber flap.
O yes I always add something each year to help my Sidewalk crew
I thought about a Power pivot
But last year was a flop and this year isnt looking to good
I got 2011 grizzly 700 in yamaha blue... with warn 54 inch blade mid mount... and viper max 2k winch with blue rope...already for some snow.. last year got not even dusting hope this year makes up for it.. quad really wants to go work it feels like.. just hope machine isn't too big for what I need it for.. moved up from kingquad 300 to this beast.. feels huge compared to old one..

I haven't done it on my plow but I was going to get a piece of metal that would overlap the top edge of the blade and have a shop put a bend (maybe 25-30degrees) so it would push the rubber flap down just a bit to help contain and roll the snow better. As it is now, it will try to push the flap back some in heavy snow.

Yeah, that's what I am making to see if it helps, just gonna try 10* for now (any more than that and when the plow trips it could be interesting)

Does them Big horns do well in the snow
I bought Tusk brand new for this year They just like Bighorns
I love my horns in the snow, I leave all the other guys I ride with just sitting there, its almost like a snowmobile cause they ride on top and don't dig like mud tires.

I did some research and found I can buy a simple spring washer to go in the front differential of my Honda Foreman to make the front end fully lock up when real 4 wheel drive is needed. The cost is only $8.24 for the new washer.

Kool I'll have find out,when get some snow and go do some night time rides
I've owned it since new in '06- 2006 Kawasaki Prairie 360 4x4 with a 54" Cycle Country Plow- have plowed a lotta driveways with it (before I got my trucks)- works great! Now my brother runs it for me in storms to plow all our drives close to the house- awesome for small drives and moderate snowfalls (struggles a bit with heavy snow or accumulations more than 6" or so).
Here's a pic when she was new- looks basically the same now with a couple more scratches (trailriding in the summer )....
They do quite well. I air down the fronts to 3 lbs and the rears to 2 1/2 lbs. I also have weight for the racks, but really haven't needed it... yet!
Thats kool
I dont run any weight since I have rear plow on
Maybe some day I'll find out
Should go better then what I had
Last week I installed a Thumb Switch I think its ready but since there is no snow More time I have to do things to it
Thinking about installing a Safety kill switch for the winch
This is my first year plowing, I have a 1997 SUZUKI KING QUAD with a 48inch cycle country plow. i lift the plow with my champion 3000lb winch... Like i said, its my first year, so if anyone has any suggestions for me. Please let me know...
make sure you have some weight for the back and make sure your tires aren't too worn down.
also you may want to purchase some extra fog lights for the front of your rack as extra work lights
makes a huge difference plowing at night
