This Generation III Classic Personal snowplow is the most recent innovation from SnowBear. This plow conveniently slides into your vehicle's front-mounted trailer hitch (sold separately) for easy, convenient mounting. It has a remote-controlled electric winch that will let you raise and lower the plow without leaving the warmth and comfort of your cab. 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.

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 Personal 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 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 Personal 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

The electric winch on this plow allows you to easily lift and lower the blade using a toggle switch that mounts in your cab. You can also use the included wireless remote control. The winch uses a durable nylon strap, which is much quieter than a chain, to raise and lower the plow.

It would have been nice if the gentleman who sold me my snow plow would have told me that I needed a drop down hitch instead of a straight hitch, which makes a big difference when trying to plow.1704152

by: Bill11/17/2023

The plow works ok. It's easy enough to get on and off the vehicle. Fatal flaw is the winch strap. I have replaced 3 times in one winter of plowing. If you purchase this product be sure to order extra winch straps!1693869

Product was received in very good condition and quick. It took me about an hour from the time I put it on the ramps till I backed off with the factory tow hooks removed and the new hitch installed. Fit was as good as anyone could want.65558

Great product, just as described, fit perfectly. Receiver could have come forward another 3 - 4 inches (does not come to front edge of bumper). Got an extension and it works perfect for the winch mount and winch. Cables on back of winch would not allow hitch to go into receiver to fasten with pin until I got the extension.564362

• Where Does Curt Hitch Tube Opening Sit on 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee When Installed
  
• I was able to find a better picture that shows where the hitch opening of the Curt front hitch part # C31048 will be when installed on a similar Jeep Grand Cherokee as your 2002 model that I attached to this page. It basically just sits right below the front bumper. I also lightened up the picture you mentioned so that you can see where it's at on that picture as well.

• Are The Mounting Brackets The Same For DK2 And Snowbear Snowplows On 2002 Jeep Liberty
  
• The Snowbear and DK2 snowplows require different mounting brackets. For example, in order to mount the Detail K2 Summit II Snowplow # K2SUMM8826 you would need Custom Mounting Brackets # K284121. You could, however, install Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver 2" # C31022 which could accommodate various snowplows from both brands. The Detail K2 Snowplow # K2AVAL8219 and SnowBear Personal Snowplow # SB324-080 would both would fit this 2" receiver.

• Is Bumper Modification Required to Install a Front Mount Hitch on a 2003 Dodge Durango
  
• We have front mount trailer hitches available for the 2003 Dodge Durango as long as it is a 4WD model. At this time there are no front mount hitches available for the 2WD models. If you have a 4WD model, then I recommend installing the Curt Front Mount Hitch, # 31080. This has the highest vertical pull rating of our front mount hitches and it does not require any bumper modifications. The receiver will sit just below the front bumper fascia. I have attached the installation instructions

This is a 82" x 19" steel blade plow that has 9" of height adjustment. It uses an in-cab switch and also comes with a wireless remote control.

• Snow Plow Recommendation for a 2002 Jeep Wrangler
  
• Actually SnowBear does not list a max height range for their snow plows like the part # SB324-080. Since you have a 2 inch front hitch installed on your 2002 Jeep Wrangler it should work well for you. I attached a review video for this plow for you to check out as well.

• Recommended Snowplow for a 2020 Jeep Wrangler
  
• It sounds like you're looking for a snowplow setup for a 2020 Jeep Wrangler and if that's the case we have some great options. I recommend the SnowBear Personal Snowplow part # SB324-080 with Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C31086. The SnowBear plow has an 82" wide blade with electric winch that allows you to control it from inside the vehicle. The 2" hitch mount will make it easier to get the plow on and off the vehicle. We do not carry ACI plows unfortunately.

• Snow Bear Plow Recommendation for 2008 Honda Ridgeline
  
• You may not be able to use the Snowbear plot part # SB324-080 on the highway but you could still transport it in your front hitch to your other driveway as long as the plow was up off the pavement. You'd also need the front hitch part # 33328 installed on your 2008 Honda Ridgeline.

• Snowplow and Front Mount Trailer Hitch for a 2015 Ford F-150
  
• Yes, I recommend the SnowBear 82 inch snowplow # SB324-080 for your 2015 Ford F-150. You will also need to have a front mount hitch installed, # C31083, to mount and use the plow. I also recommend the off-road lighting kit for this plow, # SB324-127, for better visibility when plowing at night since plows have the tendency to block vehicle lights.

It features a manual release handle that is easily accessible from front or back of the plow. It does use an electric winch to allow you to automatically raise or lower the plow from inside your vehicle.

• Front Hitch and Snow Plow Recommendation for a 2003 GMC Envoy
  
• As long as you have a front hitch on your 2003 GMC Envoy like the # 31055 the snow plow part # SB324-080 will fit. It's a bit wider than most plows that would get used on a smaller SUV like the Envoy, but if you plan to upgrade to a full size truck eventually this would be a good plow to use. You would be able to easily transfer it over to the Sierra when you needed too.

• Parts Needed to Mount Snow Plow to 2010 Ram 3500
  
• The personal snowplows from SnowBear simply mount to a hitch receiver so to add one to your 2010 Ram 3500 you'll need the Curt # C31065. If you have the Winter Wolf edition that requires vehicle-specific mounting brackets then we'll either need to find you a different setup or you'll have to have a shop fabricate some mounts as SnowBear doesn't have any custom mounts for a 3500 Ram pickup. For the personal snowplow from SnowBear you'll need that Curt Front Hitch # C31065 and SnowBear

• How to Determine if the SnowBear Plow # SB324-080 Would Block Headlights
  
• The blade height of the SnowBear Plow # SB324-080 that you referenced is 19 inches. Most likely your headlights will sit higher than this, but if you measure from the ground up 19 inches then you would know where the top of the blade would sit and whether or not the headlights would be blocked.
