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.

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.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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.

2003 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Decent plow for the price.

I installed this DK2 Avalanche on a 2003 GMC Yukon 1500 with a Curt front receiver hitch 31302. If you have a side mount battery, you may need battery bolt extenders (Battery Doctor #30400) to make life easier. That said, the ring terminal connectors on the winch control box will be too small. Get ones that will fit the 3/8 inch stud and 12-10 AWG wire to replace the stock ones.

Manufacturer instructions are not very helpful, but Graz's Garage has a great install video on YouTube. He installed his on a 2020 Chevy Colorado Z71. You can always count on a gearhead from Detroit. eTrailer is awesome at responding to concerns, too, and I'm glad I bought this product from them.1221734

This will fit 1992-2011 Ford Rangers, regardless of drive configuration unless it is Canadian built. There are a few things to be aware of that we have listed as Tech Tips for this hitch: 1. Skid shield must be removed. 2. Hitch will not fit on models with a front cross-member. 3. Hitch does not fit 2WD vehicles built in Canada.

by: Will 11/12/2022

Plow seems to be of good quality, wont know till I actually use it, how good it is. Seems sturdy enough to do the job, assembly was very straight forward.
My only complaint is etrailer left me dangling for a month with no updates on my order status, even after chatting with one of their customer service people.
I ended up contacting DK2 to get a ship date.1467476

1999 Mazda b4000

I don't usually write reviews, but the installation of this front mount hitch on my 1999 Mazda B4000 was so simple and easy. I was so amazed at the ease of installation and the way it fits and looks I have to brag on it. I installed it the same day I got it in 1 hour with no help and no problems just followed instructions. The wire that was included for installing bolts is ingenious. I used two clamps to lift and hold it in place then enlarge two existing holes and wow the installation was finished. It is heavy duty and well built. I would give it 6 stars if it was allowed. I love it! 443684

This front hitch my 2011 Ford Ranger XLT 4x4 fit perfectly and arrived so quickly. Had to remove a front guard, slightly widen two holes in the frame so the bolts would fit, and cut a little into the plastic bottom of the front bumper (looks fine). You can barely tell there is a front hitch when looking at the front. For a $65 install cost, I highly recommend using Uhaul or a professional who can install this well. 706531

Do you have a question about this Snow Plow?

• Differences Between Detail K2 and Detail K2 Elite Snow Plows For a 2003 Toyota Tacoma
  
• Yes, the difference between the Detail K2 Snowplow # K2AVAL8422 and Detail K2 Elite Snowplow # K2AVAL8422ELT is the Elite has the electric actuator over the winch. The Elite also uses a chain connection to the blade while the basic K2 has a strap that is more likely to become damaged. The electric actuator is superior to the winch. It operates faster, smoother and it has a built in clutch that will protect against damage that a winch would cause. The actuator won't be able to lift the blade

• Recommended Snowplow and Front-Mounted Hitch for 1994 Ford Ranger
  
• For your 1994 Ford Ranger I recommend the Detail K2 Avalanche Snowplow # K2AVAL8422 which fits in the Curt Front-Mounted Hitch # C31063 (please keep in mind this hitch will not fit Ranger's with a front cross-member or 2WD models built in Canada). The K2 Avalanche # K2AVAL8422 has a blade which can adjust to be angled to the left or right as well as straight ahead and gets raised or lowered with an electric winch that is operated via remote control so you do not have to leave the cab

• Will Detail K2 Snowplow for 2 Hitches Fit Lifted Truck
  
• All of the snowplows from Detail K2, including the part #K2AVAL8422 you are looking at, require that the height of the front hitch mount receiver be 13" - 18" from the ground to the bottom of the receiver opening. As long as the front hitch on your K1500 meets that criteria you're good to go!

• What is the Receiver Height Requirement for a Detail K2 Snow Plow
  
• I spoke with my contact at Detail K2 who said that the height of the front hitch receiver on your 2005 Jeep Wrangler needs to be within the range of 13" - 18" which is measured to the bottom of the receiver opening. This is the case for all of their plows, including the Avalanche # K2AVAL8422 that you referenced.

• Can K2 Detail Avalanche K2AVAL8422 Be Swapped Between 2002 Toyota Tundra and Ford F-350
  
• The # K2AVAL8422 plow itself isn't vehicle specific, you can install it on any SUV or light truck that has a front hitch available for it. To install the # K2AVAL8422 on your 2002 Toyota Tundra, you'll need a front mount hitch like # 31180. You will be able to used the plow on both trucks, but unless you want to move all the wiring each time, you'll need an additional winch control box # K2WCB and wireless remote # EWX004-CAD for the second vehicle.

• Snow Plow and Mount Recommendation for 1994 Jeep Wrangler 4WD
  
• I'd recommend going with a plow mount for your vehicle over a hitch style mount. On some hitch mount setups we've seen the hitch not be as durable as the mounts that mount to the frame and are specifically for plows so that's what I feel is the better solution. The Detail K2 Storm Plow part # K2AVAL8422 that you referenced is a great choice, and then for mounts custom fit to your 1994 Jeep Wrangler we have the part # K284115 which would work great.

• Correct Front Mounted Receiver for 2005 Chevy Silverado
  
• The # K2AVAL8422 K2 plow attaches to the vehicle using a standard front mounted hitch. The hitch you need will depend on whether your Silverado is a 1500 or a 1500 HD model. The easy way to differentiate between the two is the hubs. The 1500 has 6 bolt hubs while the 1500HD has 8 bolt hubs. If you have the 1500 model, I'd recommend the Curt # 31302. If you have the 1500HD model, use the Curt # 31108. I've linked to installation videos for both hitches mentioned above.

• Detail K2 Snowplow for 2" Hitches K2AVAL8422. Will This Work On A Lifted Truck?
  
• In order to use the Detail K2 Snowplow # K2AVAL8422, your front hitch must be between 13"-18" from the ground, when measured from the bottom of the receiver opening to the ground. We installed the Curt front hitch # C31018 on a 2012 F250 where everything was stock, and the front hitch was at about 15-1/2". So with a 6" lift and big tires, this snow plow would likely not be effective. You can always measure your hitch to be sure, but your lifted truck will likely not be able to be used

• How to Add Lights to a Detail K2 Snowplow for 2" Hitches

The light kit comes with lights, brackets, and pigtails. The pigtails will be tied into the factory headlights but you'll indeed need to add relays so you don't overdraw the factory headlight circuits.

• Does Blade Stiffener Have to be Connected for Safe Usage of Detail K2 Hitch Mount Snowplow
  
• Good question! The blade stiffeners that come with the Detail K2 Snowplow # K2AVAL8422 don't necessarily have to be used. I reached out to my contact at Detail K2 who said that the only time that those stiffeners really need to be used is if you will be pushing a lot of heavy snow. Otherwise you'll be just fine using it on your 2003 GMC Yukon XL without those connected. The reason why you're having trouble is because those will connect if the receiver is the same height as the crosstube,

• Do all 2000 Ford Rangers Have a Trailer Hitch
  
• Sounds like you are referring to a trailer hitch. And no, not all vehicles come from the factory with trailer hitches installed so the one you are selling just may not have ever had one.

• Troubleshooting Installation of Detail K2 Snowplow for 2" Hitches
  
• The Detail K2 Snowplow for 2" Hitches - 84" Wide x 22" Tall # K2AVAL8422 is designed to slide into the 2" receiver on the front of your 2011 Ford Ranger. This snow plow cannot be used with a receiver adapter so you definitely do not want to use one. If you are having difficulty reaching the receiver you will need to set the wheels to a higher position. The height of the wheels can be adjusted to match the height of your vehicle.

• Does Detail K2 Snowplow Fit 2011 Ford Ranger 4WD Made in Canada
  
• Yes it will fit your 4WD 2011 Ford Ranger made in Canada. The plow fits a 2" hitch, so the fit note saying "does not fit 2WD vehicles built in Canada" is related to the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # C31063. Per Curt, that hitch does not fit 2WD Rangers made in Canada but does fit 4WD and is what you will need with the Detail K2 Snowplow for 2" Hitches # K2AVAL8219.
