Detail K2 Plow Length

The Detail K2 snowplow conveniently slides into your vehicle's front-mounted trailer hitch for fast, simple mounting. Easily raise and lower the plow from the comfort of your cab with the remote-controlled electric winch. The pivoting blade makes this plow ideal for rocky or uneven surfaces because it can adjust to the terrain.


Simple, Hitch-Mounted Installation

This hitch-mounted snowplow simply slides into your vehicle's front trailer hitch receiver, making it a breeze to install. A plow that attaches to custom-fit brackets ties you down to just 1 vehicle. But this hitch-mounted plow can be used on most trucks or SUVs with a 2" x 2" front-mounted hitch. As a result, this plow can be easily switched between multiple vehicles. And because it offers a nearly universal fit, you won't have to buy a new plow when you replace your old vehicle.


Detail K2 Hitch Mount

To install the snowplow, just slide the shank of the plow assembly into your 2" trailer hitch receiver (sold separately). Then use a pin and clip or a hitch lock (sold separately) to secure the plow in the receiver.


Detail K2 Caster Wheel

The snowplow comes with flip-down caster wheels that make the installation process even easier on you. Simply flip the wheels into position and you will be able to roll the plow into position for mounting or storage. The height of the wheels can also be adjusted to match the height of your vehicle.


How to Plow

Detail K2 Adjustable Plow Position

Once the plow is mounted on your vehicle, lower the blade and set it to the desired angle. To set the angle, exit the vehicle and manually position the plow straight ahead, to the left, or to the right. Angling the blade allows you to push snow off to the side where you want it without having to change the angle of your entire vehicle. This is especially useful on a driveway or a private roadway where piling the snow straight ahead would create a barrier.


Detail K2 Wireless Remote 2.4Ghz

The plow comes with a wireless remote that allows you to stay warm and out of the elements while still effectively controlling the plow. The remote operates on a 2.4 GHz frequency, allowing it to quickly send signals to the winch without experiencing delays. And because it's wireless, you won't have to run wires through your dash. Nor will you have to leave your window cracked open in the middle of a snow storm just so that you can run a wired remote into your cab. You will be glad to have it on those cold winter days.


To begin plowing, just drive forward. When backing up to take another pass, be sure to lift the plow with the remote, then lower it again before moving forward. When approaching a large pile of snow, be sure to decrease your speed. Slamming into a pile of snow can void the warranty on the snowplow.


When you are finished, put your vehicle in park and lower the plow. Remove the plow from your vehicle after every use.


Easy Lifting with Electric Winch

Detail K2 Electric Winch

The electric winch on this plow allows you to easily lift and lower the blade using the wireless remote control. If you prefer, you can also install the included in-cab toggle switch to control the plow. The winch uses a durable strap, which is much quieter than a chain, to raise and lower the plow.


Detail K2 Features

Detail K2 Skid Shoes

The snowplow features skid shoes that allow you to adjust the height of your plow. This allows you to efficiently plow over surfaces that are uneven, such as gravel roads.


Detail K2 Blade Stiffener

Blade stiffeners, or blade support brackets, reinforce the connection between the plow and your vehicle. They add 2 additional points of contact with your hitch on either side of the plow's T-frame. This prevents stress on the frame and on your vehicle, while also strengthening the performance of the plow.


Detail K2 Trip Springs

Shock-absorbing springs allow the plow to dip forward in the event that you hit an obstruction. This flexibility protects you and your vehicle from impacts.

Bought this DK2 plow in Jan 2023, and naturally we had no more snow the rest of the winter. Just got to use it last week after getting a foot of snow. Worked great, easier than I expected. The written instructions could’ve been a bit clearer on how to attach the assembled plow to the truck, but it was easy enough to figure out. Very happy with the purchase

Excellent for a home plow! Does the job but hard to use in heavy wet snow but good for the average snow fall

This plow just keeps going and operating as expected! Would highly recommend!

After I got the front hitch installed, the plow assembled and hooked up I spent a little time tweaking the skid plates to keep the plow just off of the gravel. Works great for our 100 yard driveway and parking area.

See what our Experts say about this Detail K2 Snow Plow

  • Recommended Snow Plow for 2019 Ford F-250
    The Detail K2 snow plows have two mounting options on your 2019 Ford F-250. One is the brackets # K281530 and the other is the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch # C31078. I would choose the front mounted hitch since it will allow you to use other accessories or other hitch mounted snow plows in the future if you wish. For a snow plow, it will depend on the size you want as well as how the plow is operated. If you're fine with the electric winch and nylon strap raising and lowering the plow...

  • Correct Custom Mounting Brackets for Detail K2 Snowplows for a 2021 Jeep Gladiator
    The correct Custom Mounting Brackets for Detail K2 Snowplows for a 2021 Jeep Gladiator 4WD is part # K284219. This will then allow you to mount a plow such as the Detail K2 Summit II Elite Snowplow part # K2SUMM8826ELT. If you have a 2WD model then there is no Custom Mounting Brackets for Detail K2 Snowplows and you will need to use the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 65079 along with a plow like the Detail K2 Snowplow for 2" Hitches part # K2AVAL8826.

  • Is Front Hitch for 2021 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 4xe Strong Enough to Use with Plow
    That's a really valid concern about the install of the Draw Tite hitch # 65079 on your 2021 Jeep Wrangler 4xe Rubicon. I personally am not a fan of snow plows that attach to front hitches as from experience here at etrailer they just aren't quite as secure. We had the front hitch of a Highlander get ripped off when demoing a plow here, but to be fair the parking lot here looks like a war zone. With all of that said we've sold quite a few of the # 65079 and had several people use it to...

  • Is Trimming Required to Install Front Hitch and Snowplow on a 2022 Nissan Frontier
    In order to use a snowplow on the 2022 Nissan Frontier you'll need a front mount trailer hitch, the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 65075 is currently our only option for this. The hitch does require removal of the lower air dam but this can be reinstalled once trimmed if desired. If you would like to see what other steps are involved you can check out the install instructions below. The hitch will then allow you to attach a snowplow like the Detail K2 Snowplow for 2"...

  • Replacement Winch Strap For A Detail K2 Avalanche 88" Hitch Mounted Snow Plow
    You will want to use the Replacement Winch Strap for Detail K2 Snowplows # K2WS8020. This strap is rated for the weight of your Detail K2 Snowplow # K2AVAL8826. The working load is 1,500lbs with a break strength of 3,000lbs. The Replacement Strap for Bulldog Winch Snow Plow # BDW62GR is designed to be used on winches for ATV/UTV snow plows.

  • Required Hitch Height of Detail K2 Snowplow for 2 Hitches 88 Wide x 26 Tall
    The Detail K2 Snowplow for 2" Hitches part # K2AVAL8826 will require a hitch height between 13" - 18". This is measured from the ground to the bottom of the receiver opening. In regards to a 2005 Ford F-150, the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 31352 will put you in range so that's what I recommend.
