The SnowBear Proshovel conveniently slides into your vehicle's front-mounted trailer hitch for easy, convenient mounting. Smoothly and easily raise and lower the plow from the comfort of your cab with the remote-controlled electric actuator. The pivoting blade makes this plow ideal for rocky or uneven surfaces because it can adjust to the terrain. Angled trip springs are also built in to help keep the blade from catching and tripping. Being just 39" away from the bumper, the Proshovel snowplow has a compact yet strong and sturdy design.
Simple, Hitch-Mounted Installation
This hitch-mounted snowplow simply slides into your vehicle's front trailer hitch receiver, making it a breeze to install. Unlike a plow that attaches to custom-fit brackets, which ties you down to just 1 vehicle, 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.
To install the Proshovel snowplow, just slide the shank of the plow assembly into your 2" trailer hitch receiver . Then use a pin and clip or a hitch lock (sold separately) to secure the plow in the receiver.
How to Plow
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, 11 degrees to the left or to the right, or 22 degrees 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 private roadway where piling the snow straight ahead would create a barrier.
To begin plowing, just drive forward. When backing up to take another pass, be sure to lift the plow with the remote or the in-cab toggle switch, 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 Proshovel.
When you are finished, put your vehicle in park and lower the plow. Remove the plow from your vehicle after every use.
Smooth, Controlled Lifting with Electric Actuator
The electric actuator on this plow allows you to lift and lower the blade using a toggle switch that mounts in your cab. You can also use the included wireless remote control. To raise the plow, activate the actuator. As the actuator moves along the internal screw, the arm on top of the actuator will pivot, raising the plow blade by pulling the chain that is attached to it. Having fewer moving parts than a typical winch makes this setup less complicated and less likely to break down than other plow lifting and lowering devices. There is also an internal clutch system that prevents damage to the actuator should you try to raise the blade too high or lower it too low.
Add-On Accessories
SnowBear offers a plethora of helpful accessories to make plowing even safer and easier. Along with the available accessories to enhance your snowplowing experience, many parts of the SnowBear Proshovel snowplow are available separately, so you can replace worn-out pieces without having to replace the whole plow.
The off-road halogen light kit (SB324-127) may be necessary if your plow blocks your vehicle's headlights. This kit will light up the way when you're plowing at night or in the early morning. The light kit mounts directly to your plow frame and offers increased visibility when plowing in dark conditions. The 2 bright halogen lights make it easier for you to see where you are going and for others to see you.
With the caster kit (SB324-126), it will be a breeze to move and store the Proshovel snowplow when it's not in use. These wheels mount directly behind the blade and they can be easily folded down for use and up for storage. In addition, these wheels will not weigh the plow down.
The drop extension kit (SB324-128) allows you to use your SnowBear snowplow on your lifted vehicle. With 6" of drop, this bolt-on kit ensures that the plow makes proper contact with the ground. Its sturdy steel construction is just as strong and durable as the plow itself.
If you are worried about causing damage to your lawn or pathway, the poly scraper attachment (SB324-069) is perfect for replacing the harsh, steel scraper on the Proshovel. The polymer construction is strong enough to still help plow efficiently, but gentle enough to not hurt your lawn or pathway.

Overall it's a good light duty plow, works like it's supposed to, clears the snow with no problems. Originally purchased the plow with the hitch receiver mount, But the plow stuck out quite a bit in my opinion plus there was to much wobble. So I converted to the 2 point mount which brought the plow in closer and a lot less wobble.
There was an issue with the actuator, it would work intermittently when lowering the plow but Snow Bear covered it under warranty and sent me a new one.
My only gripe is that only after 3 months of Winter use, the whole plow was showing a lot of surface rust and the paint was peeling.

Great VIDEOS and helpful questions and answers service. Fit my 2014 Silverado present and I had a good idea how the job would go before the hitch even showed up.A little slow on the shipping but other than that very happy with my purchase.

Overall it is a good setup, does the job it's suppose to. Had one problem with the actuator intermittently working when lowering the plow, but was replaced under warranty.
Originally purchased to use in a front mounted hitch receiver, but switched to the two point hookup which brought the plow in closer to the vehicle and made it a little more stable.
My only problem was after 3 months of winter use, paint was peeling and a lot of surface rust showing.

Purchased a front mount receiver hitch for my pickup from etrailer.com. The hitch mounted exactly as it said and was a super to install. I plowed snow all winter with a receiver plow. Now I move three times the snow now in a third of the time.

Chevrolet Silverado
2014 Chevy Silverado. The hitch arrived in what seemed to be record time.
Install was very straightforward. The only issue was the front mounting holes were too small to accept the spacer and bolt. A little time with a die grinder was all it took.
Since I was installing alone I used a short pipe clamp to hold the passenger side in place instead of a jack.
Install time was 50 minutes.
I have a 2" leveling kit on the truck and ended up with 10-1/2" of clearance below the hitch.
Overall I'm very pleased with the hitch. My primary use will be to occasionally mount a winch on the front or back as needed.
by: Tom09/24/2019
This front hitch works well with my rod/cooler rack for surf fishing! I installed myself using the instructions. (Would've been easier with a second person!). It's low profile. I removed the air dam to make it easier for install and gain more ground clearance overall. I have a 2018 Silverado.
by: Mark D.06/03/2024
The one arm was bent on the hitch, requiring us to take the hitch to a body shop for controlled straightening. Other than that the hitch was short not allowing clearance between my bumper and the wench. This required an extension to move the wench further out from the bumper and allowing a pin to pass through the hitch attaching the wench.

2015 ChevroletSilverado 1500
The hitch quality is great the fit was perfect and mounting time was about 35 minutes.
One thing that would make the installation better would be to include 6 of the fishing wires instead of only including 2. When bolting the hitch to the frame it is real easy to push the bolts back up into the frame. With the extras fish wires you can just feed them through the holes in the hitch and not worry about losing the bolt. This would make it much easier to mount.With that being said I would recommend this hitch to anyone who needs a front mount hitch.

The hitch came yesterday. It was packaged extremely well. The paint finish is great, I can't wait to install the hitch on the front of my pickup. It will be after Christmas now as too much to do to get ready for the holidays. After that I will submit a second review once the product is installed. etrailer is the best for products of this nature, always a good shopping experience . Thank you

Very easy install on 2017 sierra 1500. Took an hour by myself without jacking up truck. With two people and a jack could easily be done in no time. Jack is not needed but would’ve allowed a little more clearance to drill holes easier. Did not have to trim any of the fascia

Hitch fit exactly as it should. Directions were clear, although I did watch an [online] video just to make sure I understood how to pull the bolts through the frame. It took me a little over an hour and a half to install by myself.

by: Benjamin05/05/2021
Installation was easy even when combined with my grill guard.
Even so, I have three recommendations. 1) Remove the bottom plastic air deflector. This will help with installation and even more when inserting and removing hitches. 2) Install a 2" leveling kit to the front suspension. The stock ride height will let the receiver come in contact with high curbs when parking. 3) Use a hitch extension to get out in front of the bumper.

2016 Chevrolet Silverado
This is the 2nd Front Hitch that I have purchased through eTrailer, made by Curt.
My first was for my 2004 GMC Sierra. After several years pushing a driveway plow and launching & precisely parking boats,....I decided to buy a new 2016 Silverado.
The 2004 Hitch mounted with only 2 bolts on each side. There was clever use of the tow hook bolt & an open access hole. No holes needed to be drilled. I bent the plow rack & bent a hitch extender over the years but never compromised the hitch. I'm going to give this hitch to my brother for his 2015 Silverado 2500 for a front winch mount.
The 2016 Hitch used an access hole on each side and required me to drill 2 more holes on each side. This hitch is just as strong as the rear hitch,....probably stronger! The instructions suggested that I trim the airdam,....didn't have to. I pulled out one screw and bent the airdam over a little.
The other brand offered by eTrailer was recognizable, but not as well designed & made as the Curt.
Next truck I buy,...I'll be back to eTrailer for another Curt Hitch!
Oh,...incidentally; the website, ordering, delivery, packaging, instructions were all GREAT!,....and like most busy people, I don't have time to give this feedback, but eTrailer's Bill P. asked kindly & deserves it.
by: Julian02/14/2022
Extremely well engineer, simple and easy installation. Most people don’t realize how easy a front hitch can make putting a camper or boat into a tight spot. I’m very satisfied. This is my second purchase of a front mounted hitch, second vehicle.
by: Doug 09/04/2022
Product mounted up perfectly and works great. I use it for a cargo carrier to haul my moped to the campgrounds. I get lots of looks and inquiries about it. I have NO complaints with this company and I've bought plenty of stuff from them. Customer service is outstanding and delivery is ahead of time.
by: Roger 07/05/2022
A great addition to any truck really and the price is reasonable. Easy to install with only 4 holes to drill in the front frame. Maybe 2 hours of work and it easily blends with the air dam under the front bumper. I use mine for a simple plow attachment to quickly clear my driveway. It's beefy enough to handle maneuvering a boat trailer into a tight parking spot also.
by: Levi07/30/2018
2014 Chevrolet Silverado
Installed this on a 2014 Silverado 1500. Very easy install with two people for an extra set of hands to hold hitch up while marking drill holes and tightening the first 2 nuts to hold the hitch to the frame. I had previously installed a 2" front end leveling kit on the truck so the ground clearance difference is barely noticeable. I would recommend this hitch to anyone looking to put this on a similar truck.
by: John01/15/2019
2018 ChevroletSilverado 1500
Great product, well built. went in just like the instructions said, though one must be very careful when positioning the hitch over the bolts coming down from the holes in the frame that are drilled. One bolt ended up being pushed up into the frame member and took 1+ hour to retrieve. Use the fish wires to extend from the bolts so if one (or more) ends up being pushed up passed the hole opening, it will be easy to retrieve!
Once in though, looked great and didn't even have to cut any of the "fascia" to fit the receiver.
by: Elizabeth06/23/2018
Was glad to receive my box early, however, the one brace on the hitch was 1/2" off and had to be pried out to fit properly...Not an easy task. As far as time installing the hitch, I am not a novice but it took me quite a while to install this. The fishing line kept going up, luckily i had long nosed pliers to pull it into place. All in all I am happy with the hitch.

by: Timothy04/23/2019
Very easy installation (1 hour) with no problems. The air dam only required a vertical 3/4" cut to fit. I only cut the sides and let the tongue push the plastic upwards. The wire used to snake the nuts and washer bar into the frame is ingenious. All four fell into place on the first try.

- Will SnowBear Proshovel Snowplow Work on 22 inch Tall Front Hitch

- For a plow that is confirmed to fit the front hitch of your 2003 Chevy Silverado 2500HD I recommend the SnowBear Proshovel Snowplow # SB324-172. It measures 84 inches wide by 22 inches tall which means it will take a wide section of snow with each pass and is a taller size which allows for a better plowing angle. This also comes with skid shoes that you can adjust so that you can plow gravel well. Since plowing gravel can be challenging to do without scooping up gravel you will need to

- Snow plows that attach to the vehicle by a front hitch like the SnowBear Proshovel # SB324-172 need to have the hitch opening lower than the hitches that fit through the front bumper of your 2012 Ram 2500 like the Draw Tite # 65063 that you mentioned.

- The Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # C31069 provides the most ground clearance out of the three available for your 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500.
To give you a better idea of how low each hitch would sit once bolted to your frame I have attached photos showing the
distance from the frame brackets to the bottom of the hitch receiver for each of the following three hitches:
# C31069 - 9.5 inches

- We had a customer come back and tell us that after the install of the Curt Front Hitch part # C31069 that you end up losing right at 1.3 inches of ground clearance. Since not all vehicles will sit at the exact height it's easier to determine the exact ground clearance you'd have by taking the 1.3 inches and subtracting it from the clearance you currently have.

Either one will be a great choice for you so if you are more loyal to Curt over Draw-Tite you would still be getting a great product. If you plan on doing the installation yourself you may want to take a look at the linked instructions for both options

- I'd recommend using the Curt # C31069 front mounted hitch for your Snowsport Plow, because of the improved ground clearance it offers compared to the Curt # C31012.
This being said, in order for your Snowsport plow to work correctly, the bottom of the receiver tube needs to be within 8-16 inches of the ground. I'd recommend you take a measurement from the bottom of the front frame member to ensure the receive will be at the correct height. Measure down from the underside of the frame
view full answer... - Comparing Curt Front Mounted Hitches for 2018 Chevy Silverado 1500
- The biggest difference between the # C31012 and the # C31069 (both of which are confirmed to fit your 2018 Silverado 1500) is ground clearance. The Curt # C31069 will hang down 6-3/4 inches from the mounting surface and the # C31012 will hang down 8-3/16 inches. They will mount in the same location and both will require trimming the front air dam.
view full answer... - Comparing Curt Front Mount Hitch Receivers for a 2015 GMC Sierra 1500
- Curt front mount hitches # C31069 and # C31012 are nearly identical with the exception of what all each will fit. The newer C31069 is designed just for trucks whereas the C31012 also fits some GM SUVs such as the Yukon and Escalade.
But as far as how they will fit on your 2015 GMC Sierra 1500 they will be the same. I have linked instructions for both. Both require front fascia/air dam trimming so the bottom of the receiver will sit about 1 inch lower than the bottom of the fascia/air dam.

- The front hitch that fits your 2018 GMC Sierra 1500 that has the best ground clearance is the Curt hitch part # C31069 which fits right up to the bottom of the front bumper. There isn't a similar option that has it's opening in a higher location.
