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

HITCH MOUNTING

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

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.

The hitch was well-made, and installing it was very easy. However, the design of the hitch is somewhat perplexing. The hitch receiver hangs about 3 inches lower than it needs to, which reduces the ground clearance on the front of the truck significantly. See attached photos. The hitch will work until I find something better, That restores the front ground clearance

Great, except for the reduced front clearance as indicated in my review

This little plow has been perfect for a Jeep Wrangler. I used it all winter and it kept the driveway clear, no complaints.

Well so far so good. It was a little difficult trying to do it by myself, got most of it done and then had to go to a autobody shop down the road to tighten up the 4 bolts.

It worked out great! We traveled to Key West from New England with only a couple of problems. Watch out for dips in the road, curbstones, large tree roots.

Have not opened the box yet, but am hoping for a perfect fit. Excellent communication on my order and delivery status…5-Star rating on customer service

Awesome! Works great and I just used the front hitch to put a boat away in very tight quarters.



by: Fernando Zapata11/29/2023

The hitch is mounted on our 2018 GMC 2500hd. We use it to transport our bikes. We choose not to mount items on our tv rear bumper.

This front hitch carrier has been a life saver for us. I reviewed all the bike mounting options I could find for our truck camper and decided that mounting the bikes on a front receiver hitch was the way to go. The customer service at the front end was excellent. I needed to be sure that the position of the hitch receiver would allow a) enough ground clearance, b) that the bikes would not be touching the front grill of the truck, c) that the bikes would not be sitting up so high that the view of the driver would be obstructed and d) that I would actually be able to do the install myself. Well, the customer service gal on the phone was very helpful and took a lot of time to research and answer all my questions and I felt confident that I was getting the right item. I was able to install the receiver in less than 2 hours with the help of my neighbor. The instructions were clear and the install went fairly smoothly. The end result is an excellent product that is very strong and durable and holds our bike rack perfectly. We have logged over 5000 miles since installing it last spring and I could not be happier with how things have worked out!



by: John12/20/2023

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.

Had the front hitch in use for about a year. No issues...supports a front "cooler" rack that I modified and added a bike roack to the front of that...it performs the way it should....easy install...great produt...happy all around

@James Awesome, we're glad to hear that your # C31071 Curt hitch is doing the job for you!


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!



by: Craig03/07/2021

High quality hitch. Great install instructions. Not hard to install but you will need two people. May be possible with one person with truck on a lift.

Very easy front reciever install, I was able to do it by myself with a hydralic floor jack. And no bumper modifications needed



by: David 08/13/2022

It took me a little more than an hour to install the mount. It was a little tight but I used a come a long to pull it into alignment.

2018 Ford Transit Connect

Installed on a 2018 Chevy 3500HD (diesel)

Product
arrived as scheduled in a shipping box that was damaged in transit. Upon inspection of the contents, it was determined everything was fine and all installation parts were securely attached to the hitch. It's understandable that a cardboard box with a 35 pound steel frame will get some damage in handling.

Installation: Absolutely watch the video online, it is extremely helpful! I jacked up the front of my truck about 6 inches and set jack stands in place on the jacking blocks behind front wheel wells. I also removed the plastic debris guard (4-15mm bolts) for easier access to the mounting points. I must say, the threaded pull wires are a wonderful addition that made the installation flawless! Take your time and follow the enclosed instructions (and video) and it should take you about 30-45 minutes. I am an average mechanic at best and this was a really easy install!

Be aware that adding the hitch up front will require you be careful with parking curbs, however I think the hitch is stout enough to insure it will destroy a concrete curb. Probably best to avoid testing that theory.

I test mounted a motorcycle carrier on the from of the truck and loaded up a KTM 690 Duke. (315 lbs) Virtually no sag in the front suspension and to bike should ride well with proper pads & tie-downs. Makes for an interesting hood ornament ;)

All in all, a great product and vendor. You can buy with confidence.

Stout Hitch



by: Calvin P.01/02/2015

The Curt Front Mount Hitch is a great addition to any working man's truck. The fit is so tight that I had to bend the side frame tabs out a little bit to get it mounted. Once in place it mounted exactly as described.



by: Tracy05/03/2018
2016 GMC Sierra 3500

I really like the front hitch. I use it to haul kayaks when I'm towing my fifth wheel.
My only complaint is that it significantly decreases my front end clearance. I now tend to hit ground while going through dips.
Other than that, it's been great.



by: J. Michael05/01/2024

Came a day early now to install looks good can't wait to see how it fits



by: Ryan 05/24/2020
2015 Ram 3500

Overall quality looking hitch. The side-flanges were not wide enough to fit around my ‘16 Sierra 3500 frame which was extremely difficult to install, especially with the fish-wire. Had to use a floor jack to push the hitch into place and remove the skid plate and thankfully there was an access hole in the frame where the flange-bolt goes. Did not want to cut a hole behind the license plate so this was the only option and would buy again if needed but the flanges should be 1/16th to an 1/8 of an inch wider.

Ryan

Had to remove, to low to the ground and kept hitting everything.

Thank you for your review. On a 3500 Sierra the top of the receiver tube opening to level ground should be 9 3/ 4".

I searched far and wide for a front hitch for my 2018 GMC 2500 HD Denali, most will not fit the Denali for some reason. This one did so with no trimming of the air dam, it's a perfect fit and only took about 45 minutes to install by myself. This will be the second truck I've owned with a front hitch and it seems like a necessity at this point, they're great for bicycle racks, winches, kayak racks, you name it!



by: Steve 05/31/2023

Shipping box was trashed, all attaching parts were very well protected and nothing was lost. Installation was exactly as the video explained with no issues. Haven't used it yet.

The Curt hitch assembly arrived in excellent condition. As usual, George did a fantastic job of getting my order to me very promptly. The installation went perfectly and exactly as shown in the video on the etrailer.com website. The front hitch fit was perfect on my 2015 GMC Sierra.

Ive driven thousands of miles with my bicycle rack attached to the Curt front receiver. The Curt front receiver has performed perfectly. The best thing is I didnt have to cut or alter my truck to install it.

  • 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.

To use a plow on the Pilot, you will need the Snow Plow Personal, part # SB324-080, and the hitch for your vehicle, part # 33328. This particular plow is 82" wide and 19" tall.

However, the Replacement Spring Kit for SnowBear Snowplows # SB600-128 comes with 2 springs and the hardware needed to repair the plow, so you would be able to replace your lost spring and still have an extra spring on hand in the event of a future loss or break.

  • 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

  • Recommended Snow Plow For A 1994 Jeep Wrangler
  • I can definitely point you in the right direction. If you are looking for a hitch mount plow we have the # SB324-080 from SnowBear. 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. Please note that the bottom of your receiver tube must be at least 13" from the ground in order to use this plow. We also offer the Detail K2 elite series plows for your 1994 Wrangler. I recommend the # K2RAMP8219ELT

  • Snow Plow Recommendation for a 2002 Jeep Wrangler

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Does the SnowBear Personal Snowplow # SB32408031114 Have to be Manually Adjusted?
  • Yes, you will have to manually adjust the blade on the # SB324-080 to set the position to the left, right, or center. 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

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.

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.

  • Wiring for Electric Winch at the Front and Rear of a 2015 Chevy Silverado 3500 Duramax
  • First, you are going to need a couple sets of quick disconnects such as # BDW20133.

Another option is to get a couple of winch wiring kits, # BDW20207.

  • I spoke with my contact over at Curt and he said that front mount receiver # C31071 will fit your 2015 GMC Sierra 2500 Denali. The air dam may need to be trimmed for the hitch to fit. We haven't had anyone complain about the ground clearance but the receiver will be under the front fascia so it is possible that it could make contact with the ground at severe enough inclines. The Draw-Tite hitch, # 65068, will not fit because the receiver is mounted higher up on the cross member compared

  • Which Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver Will Work On My 2016 GMC Sierra 3500HD With Grill Guard?
  • Your best bet is to go with Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # C31071. This does not require any trimming or modification to the front plastic fascia. In regard to interfering with your grill guard, most bull bars and grill guards mount onto the truck by using the same bolt holes as the front hitch receiver does In this case, you will have to chose between the grill guard or the front trailer hitch receiver. I have attached the installation video for this receiver.

  • Is Trimming Required to Install a Front Hitch on a 2015 GMC Sierra Denali 2500
  • You didn't say what was confusing so to elaborate Curt, the manufacturer of front mount receiver # C31071, says that trimming of the front air dam may be required on the 2015 GMC Sierra 2500 Denali.

It did not have to be trimmed on the 3500 in the video I have linked but that truck is not a Denali model. But if it were then that air dam could

  • Solution for Front Mount Hitch Hitting Pavement on 2015 GMC Sierra 3500
  • We do have a couple front-mount trailer hitches available that are confirmed to fit your sister's 2015 GMC Sierra 3500. When we installed the Curt Front Mount Hitch # C31071 on this model Sierra, which is the model I recommend, we measured a distance of 9-3/4 inches from the ground to the top of the receiver. I am not sure how this compares to the hitch currently installed on the truck, but you can take a quick measurement to see if it will provide a positive change in ground clearance.

In other words, they do not test them with other items installed on the trucks. Basically what you will have to do is look at the instructions. Then you would compare that to how and where your Fisher plow push plates are installed. If they occupy the same space and/or use the same mounting locations then you would have to use one or the other but not both.
