Snowplow Installation
Installation is quick and simple - just slide included shank assembly into your 2" receiver and secure with pin.
Then lift the blade, one end at a time, onto the frame's holders and fasten with snap pins.
The SnowSport HD blade is mounted on an angled, 3-position shank assembly, allowing you to plow to the left, to the right or straight ahead.
How to Plow
To plow, lower the blade and begin driving; no wiring or hydraulics are needed. The unique push frame on the shank assembly allows the blade to move along the grade of the terrain for easier, more efficient plowing. The heavy-duty rubber cutting edge is effective yet turf friendly, collecting snow and squeegeeing slush without digging into the ground.
When you reverse direction, the blade lies back, skimming over the surface of the ground so that you can easily take another pass.
Once you're finished plowing, just lift the blade and refasten into the travel position. The blade is secure enough to travel at highway speeds, and the low-profile design keeps it from blocking your vehicle's headlights. Removal for storage is quick and easy. The plow can be used on the rear of your vehicle, making it a cinch to back out of your snow-packed driveway.

Video Transcript for Agri-Cover SnowSport HD Utility Snowplow Manufacturer Demo
(upbeat rock music) (upbeat rock music continues) Narrator This video is to be used in conjunction with your owner's manual to help you with the assembly and mounting of your new SnowSport HD Plow. You will need a receiver plow mount hitch installed on your vehicle before starting the plow assembly. Follow the written instructions for the mount kit for your particular model of truck. Next, you will want to gather the tools shown on the list: torque wrench, impact or ratchet with 9/16-inch and 3/4-inch socket, drill with 3/16-inch and 5/16-inch drill bits, number 3 Philips driver bit, 3/4-inch box wrench, 5/16-inch open end wrench, 3/16-inch Allen wrench, bubble level, and protective eyewear. Make sure your vehicle is parked on a level grade and you're ready to get started. Step 1.
Insert interceptor into receiver and secure with the hitch pin. The interceptor can be installed with the big leg turned either up or down as needed for proper push frame clearance, shown turned up in this video. Bolt the push frame to the proper hole pattern on the interceptor using 4 half-inch by four-inch bolts with flat washers and lock nuts. Leave bolts snug tight for now. Step 2.
With the bolts snug tight, level the push frame horizontally, then check push frame for vertical plum. If plum, tighten all four bolts and proceed. If not plum, refer to the shimming procedure in step number 2 of your owner's manual. Step 3. Align the end of the rubber edge with the matching channel of the bottom section of the aluminum blade.
Slide the rubber edge into the channel until it's centered on the aluminum blade. Take the top half of the blade and connect the tongue-n-groove joint with the bottom half. Slide the top section until it's centered on the bottom section. Step 4. At each end of the blade, insert two square nuts into each channel, flat side facing out.
These nuts will be aligned with the holes at the top and bottom of the slide hinges. Place each slide hinge on the blade and align the edge of the hinge with a factory mark on the blade. When both hinges are properly aligned, they should measure 22 1/2 inches apart. Turn the 3/8-inch by 3/4-inch hex bolts with flat washers into the nuts that we're previously slid into the channels on both the top section of the blade and the bottom section of the blade. Double check to make sure each slide hinge is lined up with the factory mark. Then, tighten the hex bolts on the top section first, then tighten the hex bolts on the bottom section. Using a 5/16-inch bit, drill a hole through the blade in each factory punched hole on the slide hinge. Turn a 3/8-inch by 1-inch self-threading bolt into each drilled down hole and tighten. Step 5. At the tongue-n-groove joint, drill a 5/16-inch pilot hole at the factory mark in the v-groove at each end of the blade. For a 96-inch wide blade, there will be an extra hole drilled, and bolt installed per side. See step number 6 in your owner's manual. Turn a 3/8-inch by 1-inch self-threading bolt into each pilot hole and tighten. Using a torque wrench, tighten all six bolts in each slide hinge to 31 foot pounds. Step 6. At the bottom of the blade, double check that the rubber edge is centered. Then using a 3/16-inch bit, drill a pilot hole at each of the four factory marks in the v-groove. Be sure to only drill through the first layer of aluminum and into the rubber. Using a number 3 Philips bit, run a self-drilling screw into each of the four pilot holes. This prevents the rubber-cutting edge from moving. Step 7. Now, hang the blade on the push frame in the transport position and insert the keyhole pins. Insert two square nuts into the top channel. With a hex nut turned onto the stud of the blade marker, align the blade marker with the hole on the lift handle and bolt the marker and handle to the blade using one of the square nuts in the channel. Turn a 3/8-inch by 3/4-inch bolt into the other hole on the handle and thread it into the second nut that was slid into the channel. With the handle flushed with the blade edge, tighten both bolts connecting the lift handle to the blade. Repeat at the other end. Step 8. Attach the rubber box end to the blade using the metal cap plate and four 3/8-inch by 2 1/2-inch self-threading bolts. Tighten these bolts until the rubber end begins to compress to the blade. Insert a fifth bolt to tighten the bottom of the rubber end to the bottom of the metal cap plate. Secure this bolt with a flat washer and lock nut, tighten all bolts equally, and repeat at the other end. The installation of the plow is now complete, and your plow is ready for the winter season.

1996 Chevrolet Suburban
I have had the front receiver hitch installed on my 1996 Suburban for about a year now. I have a 12000 lb winch installed using that receiver hitch. I have gotten stuck twice and had to use the winch to extract the truck. Very glad that I have the front receiver hitch as it made putting on the winch very easy. Also useful for mounting a receiver mount bicycle rack to the front as well.

1999 Chevrolet Suburban
Product was shipped promptly and arrived a few days later. Packing was good for a heavy item with pointy edges, no issues breaking out of the box. Installation on a lift took about 30 minutes on my 1999 K2500 Suburban. The bolts were long enough to allow for my tow hooks that were already in place. A bolt stringer to pull the rear bolts from the top (inside the frame) is provided along with nuts, the other four just replaced the stock bolts that I had that mount from the bottom into tapped frame metal through the tow hooks. Curt makes great quality stuff. Clearance was reduced a little but I'm not concerned about it.

1997 GMC Suburban
The front mount hitch looks and feels very solid. I haven't installed it yet, but it looks as though it will be trouble free. I'll be using it for my 9,000lb Westin winch, and a cargo carrier on my 1997 K2500 Suburban

Following the instructions I had the hitch mounted in 30 minutes. The picture shows what I wanted it for. Great for when I am towing the pop-up camper.

Snowsport PlowEtrailer.com does it right from start to finish. On top of having a great web site, the staff are the best.
Keeping in mind, I ordered this in December, about 5 days before our first big snow, here in Ohio. Within an hour of ordering my SnowSport HD plow, I was upgraded to special priority shipping, that was a nice surprise! The plow arrived in about two days, in three boxes, as I ordered the front hitch at the same time. I feel bad for my UPS carrier, these boxes were not for the faint of heart. The assembly went smoothly, the manufacturer uses high end parts and everything is well marked and the instructions are easy to follow. I estimate it took me two hours to get everything put together, with a coffee break in between. I am impressed with the construction, wow. Heavy duty is right!
We had four inches of snow yesterday. I opened the garage door and went to work, two pushes to clear the parking spots, and one easy push down the two hundred foot gravel driveway. Like butter.
I was done. It took less then 15 minutes. I put this blade on my 2003 rear wheel drive, not 4x4, Chevy Blazer. I backed into the garage and it looked like I had just put the blade on, this blade could last a long time. I love it. I cant wait until we get a foot or more of snow, my wife wants to plow next time. Plus I have cable chains comming from Etrailer, they should be here any day. Just in case my two wheel drive has tracktion problems in the deeper snow. Thanks a bunch, Etrailer!

2011 Honda Ridgeline
We installed this on our 2011 Honda Ridgeline and a week later it snowed... And snowed.... And snowed.. 5 feet in 24 hours ( we live on the lake near Buffalo) and it's still snowing... This wasn't good, it was AWESOME! It was an easy install and assembly and worked absolutely perfect! We have a tough driveway and this kept it clear with no issues, no problems and we used it all day and night! When you spend that much on something you've never even seen before you can have reservations... It's worth every penny. It's solid ( more than we thought it would be) and does the job with ease. No .. It's good, but...... It's exactly as advertised and etrailer not only had the best price, the communication with my order was exceptional. Now... If only the town could send a plow down my street.....

I had a few hiccups while assembling (over tightening things early, I think) but once I got it together it’s been awesome. Clears easily and efficiently. Have used to clear as much as 14” of snow (that required pushing off to the side more often) but once you get used to the technique this thing is a lifesaver. I can clear a 300’ long driveway in 15 minutes or so for an average 4-5” snowfall.

GMC
I purchased this front receiver hitch to be able to park my travel trailer in a tight space. It is everything that was advertised. Installation was easy and straight forward. It took me a bit longer to install due to my 99 GMC Truck's tow hook nuts not being welded to the inside of the frame. There was a threaded metal strip instead which moved around when the bolts were removed. It was difficult to line up the tow hook and hitch holes to get the bolt started in the strip. I finally used a magnet to support the tow hook and a pair of needle nose vise grips to hold the strip while I started the bolts. Hind site is 20 - 20, It would have been easier to use the bolt and nut combinations provided with the hitch for all 6 of the holes. Out side of this, assembly was easy. The wire tool provided to install the bolts thru the inside of the frame was a great time saver and a wonderful invention. I am well satisfied with this hitch.

Ford Edge
It does what it's supposed to do, puts the snow from my driveways into piles not on my driveways. Got it over some of the other variations because it doesn't have electronics or wiring to break when its -30.
-Cutting edge that came with mine has been decently strong for running on gravel driveways.
-Light enough I can mount/unmount whenever I need to.
-Doesn't tear up lawns, which is where I have to push most of the snow I move.
--Needs a through eyebolt for quick connect back dragging rather than the ratchet strap idea they sell.
--Side panels are the weak link of the system
they cut in hard and make the plow jumpy while turning
the nubs on the back are also not deep enough to allow the plow to free stand when storing
and as hard as they are they get jammed right up with any sort of twig/leaf debris you might be plowing up
---I'll be replacing these with some sort of steel or aluminum panel with a tubing edge once they start to fail.
-- The sliding parts aren't powder coated so they'll need to be repainted every year or two or its going to rust right out.
Overall though it does what I wanted it to do, and paid for itself by saving me a lot of hours not having to shovel or snowblow. And even if my vehicle were ever to go down I could toss it on the back of another vehicle to get the snow moved.
by: George02/18/2022
The hitch is well built but simply too low (when mounted) to be of much practical use. Ideally the receiver needs to be at the same level as the bumper.

We do have an alternate hitch where the receiver is higher for your 1995 Chevy CK pickup. It is part # 65005.
by: James J. 2014 Honda Pilot01/25/2018
2014 Honda Pilot
It arrived in about 3 days, in 3 packages. I researched online extensively before choosing the SnowSport HD. Price at etrailer was about 10% cheaper than other sites. I already had the front hitch on my 2014 Honda Pilot, so all I had to do was assemble the plow and go play.
I had watched multiple videos of using and assembling the product, before ordering. All the time shoveling my driveway with a shovel as I had to get in and out and keep the driveway, ice free for visitors.
Everything was in the boxes, not a single bolt or washer missing. Assembly was as simple as I expected. I completed assembly without assistance in about 90 minutes, at a normal pace. Neither my cordless (nor corded) drill would screw the 3/8 self tapping screws to connect the two blade pieces, but it was not difficult to do them with a ratchet.
I set the height correctly for the front hitch, and I have a 6 inch hitch drop/riser that that should give me good plowing with the back hitch (have not tested yet, but expect good results)
The design is very well thought out, it is a quality product that will probably last the rest of my life (home use). I recommend it to others, and I would buy it again.
I ordered the plow as we finished getting about 10 inches of snow over a couple of days. The temperature stayed below freezing and there was still about 6 inches of snow to play in, when I had the plow mounted. Based on some reviews I had concerns that it might not do well, pushing piles of snow, or the snow that had been sitting for days. I was pleasantly surprised to be pushing even snow the city snow plow had mounded in front of the neighbors driveway. I plowed the neighbors from the street and about 80 feet in, without difficulty, three passes in a couple minutes and the job was done.
I live in a 1950s ranch home, with a single car garage (in basement) near Pittsburgh PA, my Honda Pilot fits in the garage with just inches to spare going through the door. The 7 foot blade is just a little narrower than the side view mirrors. So I can drive in and out. I have the blade and mount in the garage, and they are light enough that I can mount the blade front or back while in the warm garage and drive out to plow snow. Pull back in the garage, remove the blade and drive into to town to go to the office for work.
I am so excited to have this plow that, it probably will not snow more then a trace for a couple of years... Fate denying me the opportunity to play with it for a long time.

Mounted easily and proved to be very useful. Used A receiver type mounted snow plow all of last season to plow my driveway.

The product itself is great, packaged nicely, etc but the directions are a bit sketchy. They could've done a much better job with it.

It was too low to be installed on the front of my truck kept scraping the ground. It's been sitting in my storage for over a year.

We do have an alternate hitch that will sit at an estimated two inches higher when installed then the Curt hitch. It is part # 65005 on our site and will fit with a 1989 GMC CK Pickup 1500 2 or 4 WD. It does require drilling, the fascia will need to be trimmed, and the license plate would need to be relocated.

by: Jon W12/19/2020
Easy to install and is holding up great. I recommend a hitch cap to prevent oncoming road debris from prematurely wearing away at the receiver. Thank you Curt and thank you etrailer!

I bought this to make parking in my garage safer and easier. It's a very steep driveway and very tricky access street. This hitch makes the job much easier. I can use it for long boat ramps if and when I need to. It was quite easily installed. Glad I purchased it.

2011 Honda Ridgeline
The shipments arrived within days of ordering. The snow sport HD had easy to follow instructions . The plow was put together without any problems.
I had my local mechanic install the front receiver for me on my 2011 Ridgeline.
A day after everything was set to go, we got about six inches of wet snow.
I used the plow and I was very happy with it’s performance. I was able to clear my driveway and my neighbors in very little time. Overall I think it is a simple but effective plow for homeowners.

Do you have a question about this Snow Plow?
- Will the Curt Front Mounted Hitch Fit a 1995 Chevy Tahoe with 36 inch Wide Frame
- As long as your 1995 Chevrolet Tahoe is a 4 wheel drive model the Curt Front Hitch for the 1995 Tahoe, item # 31042, will fit. The tech tip states that the Hitch will not fit vehicles with 34 inch frames. If you have a 2 wheel drive model then the front mount hitch will not fit.

- Nope, you do not have to do any bumper fascia trimming on your 1997 Chevy Suburban to install the Curt Front Mount Hitch # 31042.
You don't have to do any drilling, either so it's just a bolt-on installation. As for clearance, from the top of the brackets to the bottom of the tube it is 4 inches.

- Curt front-mount trailer hitch # 31042 will not fit your 4WD 1989 Chevrolet K2500's 34-inch frame width. The other option from Draw-Tite, front hitch # 65005, will fit your truck so long as it is not the Crew Cab. This hitch install will require drilling, some fascia trimming and relocation of your license plate using a bracket like # 5443.

- You are correct that the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # 31042 you were looking at is confirmed to fit your 1997 Chevrolet Tahoe 4x4 and does have the receiver welded to the bottom of the crosstube.
You could in theory weld two more receivers to the crosstube using the Buyers Products Black Receiver Tube 2" I.D. # 337RT25808B, but that would void the warranty of the hitch. You would also need to be careful to not overload the 500lb vertical load limit of the hitch it self.

view full answer... - Front Mount Hitch and Bike Rack Recommendations for a 1998 Chevy Pickup
- For your 1998 Chevy C/K Series Pickup we do have a few options for a front mount hitch depending on your model:
1500 2WD and 4WD, 2500/3500 4WD - # 31042
2500/3500 2WD - # 31043
If you don't already have a bike rack and you're looking for a cost-effective option then I recommend checking out the Kuat Beta # B202-2. If you'd like something a little more on the heavy-duty side then the Curt 2 Bike Platform Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount - Tilting # C18085 will be the better
view full answer... - Why Would 1993 Chevy Cheyenne 2500 have 34 inch Frame for Fitting Front Hitch 31042 to it
- Cab and chassis trucks will have frames that measure 34 inches from outside to outside. This is a few inches narrower than most truck frame dimensions and why the Curt Hitch part # 31042 wouldn't be a fit for them.
You can measure your truck frame to be certain but if your truck has a normal truck bed on it this hitch would fit just fine.

- Regarding your first question, the carriage bolts will point up and thread from through the tow hooks (if present), and up into the factory weld nuts if they are present as well.
If your vehicle doesn't have the weld nuts then the carriage bolts will instead fish wire through the frame and point down instead. The square spacers will end up in the vehicle frame with the bolts. Basically the bolts will go through the square spacer, through the frame, through the hitch mounting flange,

- The Silverado designation describes a trim class on the C/K series Chevy pickups in the 1994 model year. Front hitch # 31042 is a fit for all C/K models in this year as long as they have four wheel drive and do not have a 34 inch wide frame.
If your vehicle is a 2 wheel drive model, or your outside frame width is at 34 inches, you would instead use Draw-Tite front hitch # 65005, which fits all the 1500 models.

- Adding a front mount hitch like the Curt # 31042 to your 1998 Chevy Silverado 4x4 is a very common way to utilize a plow.
