Carryall snowplow build

redraptor

Since I bought this buggy a few months back I'd been considering adding a plow I saved from my old Bolens. The tire came in handy too for the front. You can't see from this angle but there is a 2" receiver on the front. Looks factory and I don't know the purpose other than maybe parking boat trailers. The brush guard looks like someone used it pull something out and bent the mounting plate.

I made a widget to go in the receiver for the plow frame. If this isn't strong enough I could get a pintle hitch plate from TSC and modify that. I picked up another plow and added onto mine. The one I picked up was a couple inches shorter in height and wasn't rolled on the top.

I replaced the brushguard mounting plate and took 2" out of the length to get it close to the body. Then added a plate on top of the cross brace for the winch. I also cut and drilled a new bottom guard for the plow.

It's a little close to the tires on the max angle setting but I don't see me using it that often and I didn't want to extend it out any further. The way I have it set up it would be an easy modification.



Overall I'm happy with how it turned out and can't wait till it snows again to try it out.

Thanks everyone. It took longer than I would like to get it right.
Umm, Val-Con. Is that pic for real?

Just an update. The snow is piling up now around here. I had to add chains and a little weight on the back. It pushes fine even without chains but backing up on light grades is an issue. Other than that it works great!

glad to hear its working good
