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.

Great easy plow to use. The hardware that came in was missing a couple nuts and bolts. Had to run to the hardware store a couple times to get the proper bolts and nuts. The plow doesn't come assembled. So expect a good evening to build this unit. First two years was great and the scraping was good. Back dragging slacks but again a lot of plows do that. So it's not terrible but does enough. Just leaves 1/4 of snow behind. But pushing snow forward works and scrapes nice on asphalt or concrete. The battery that came with the kit for the wireless controller didn't last 1 month. So be prepared to upgrade that. But it's been now on my 3rd year, one of the springs failed on it and currently searching for the replacement. The plow itself has a one year warranty so of course it's past due now. Overall it works and it's nice. Wish I had bought the power left and right but the manual lever works too. Also the side markers prematurely failed too so I had to buy meyer yellow ones from fleet farm. Cost another $xx. But I will update this as time goes.



by: Daniel12/20/2022

It has been working very well as we have actually had a decent amount of snow so far this year. took a little longer than I thought it would to assemble and mount it but after it was on it works great and looks good.



by: Jet08/14/2022

I had the same issue most have with this item. The frame mount was too narrow, and mounting holes didn't line up. I had to use the Jack method to spread the mounting rails to fit.
After that it's awesome. I love this front hitch receiver on my truck, its very versatile.

If you are having troubles with the mount being too narrow and the holes not lining up, it could be that the hitch has been flexed during shipment. This is common amongst hitches, since the mounting brackets are made from a mild steel that allows the hitch to flex with the vehicle after installation. If the entire hitch was made of rigid steel, there would be a greater chance of the hitch being damaged and experiencing stress cracks. Such cracks could cause the hitch to malfunction. This flexing often times will cause the holes not to align. Because of this we do have a help article I have the link attached below that will walk you through the process of straightening the hitch.

2017 NissanFrontier

Curtis "Front Mount Trailer Hitch" ordered for 2017 Nissan Frontier (Crew Cab-4x4).
Excellent product quality, quick delivery, and follow up customer service. Hitch as advertised. As several other reviewers have mentioned, the front mount trailer hitch holes do not line up exactly with the truck frame holes so a bit of manhandling is required to get the bolts installed properly. I needed to be able to push my boat/trailer up my driveway, around a corner, and into the garage. Works better than I expected; very satisfied.

Still all good. Works and fits my truck better than expected.

2016 NissanFrontier

I got this Class II front hitch for my 2016 Nissan Frontier to help me back a small trailer into a tight space. It arrived in good condition with complete instructions and good quality hardware. When I tried to bolt the hitch on, I found the 1/4" plate brackets were 3/8" too narrow to match up with the holes in the Frontier's frame. Michelle at ETrailer gave me some good advice on how to spread the brackets with a hydraulic jack and bingo, the hitch fits and looks great! BTW, the ground clearance is still around 9 1/2".

This hitch is well made, it will last for many years. Its also used for a push bar and my shade umbrella!



by: Matthew11/30/2023

Hitch is doing what it's supposed to do but 1 year in and rust is already starting. Otherwise it's good. I use it for mounting a plow



by: Jeffrey01/08/2022
2021 NissanFrontier

The service from etrailer was excellent! The only issue I had was I had to spread the flanges out about a 1/2 inch with a hydraulic jack to make the hole spread correct. This would be a manufacturer issue not the distributor. In the end I was able to install, and it works well with my home plow.

It sounds like your hitch may have been flexed during shipping. This can happen because the hitch is designed to flex with your vehicle once installed.



by: Aaron01/23/2021

The DK2 plow and hitch are awesome! As always, the communication from Etrailer from order to delivery is top-notch. Assembling the plow and mounting the hitch was easy. Took about 4 hours with me enjoying a few beers and taking my time one evening after work. Took on wiring the next day. I like a clean finish, so this part took me about 2 hours. I placed the control module on the fuse block as suggested (etrailer's videos are a BIG help). I placed the remote transmitter on the drivers side. I ran the plow lead down to the hitch from inside the vehicle. There is just enough wiring supplied and this allows me to tuck the connector inside the hitch when not in use. A hitch cover protects it from the elements. First use was 30" of snowfall! I plowed for about 3 hours straight. The engine compartment did get warm which made the control wiring warm and pliable; so the connector came out of the control module mid way through plowing. I used some dielectric grease and it stayed connected the remainder of my plowing. It takes some practice to hitch up to the plow easily. This set up took a beating first time out. Sure glad I ordered it!!

2006 NissanFrontier

Well, I had the same issues as everyone else with this front mount hitch. when i went to mount the hitch the bolt holes would not line up. Most everyone else have been taking a file or something to widen the holes to make it work... but in doing that it makes the bolt head too lose to the bracket and cant get a socket on. so what i did, I got a 4x4 block of wood and a bottle jack to spread the mounting bracket apart. I had to spread the bracket about 3/8 inch. after that the holes lined up perfect..

Other then that issue, the hitch seems to be strong, thick and has good welds.

etrailer.com is excellent!! I've purchased several items from them. always fast shipping and been very happy. I will continue to purchase from them.



by: Lucas05/19/2024

Did not line up with holes like it should have. I had to really put some effort in to get it to match up properly. Other than that. It’s great.

The front receiver for my Nissan truck fit well and was easy to install.



by: Julio07/17/2022

Don’t get me wrong it’s a great product. But in my case the hole needed to be shave and the side plate needed to in 90 degrees to fit in my frontier 2018.



by: Jim Richardson02/13/2015

The distance between the flange bolt holes was too short. I had to use a hydraulic jack and 2 X 4's to spread the flanges to obtain the proper distance.
It's on and looks great. I am glad I didn't have to drill our any holes.

1993 Chevrolet Suburban

The plow works very well. It's not real heavy duty but it has been adequate so far. It went together quite easily and is fairly light and maneuverable when I take it off for the summer. I am glad it has the extra turnbuckle braces beside the receiver to stiffen it up. I almost wish I had gotten a wider plow. When I have it set for straight forward it is good but when I have it angled it is a bit narrow for my Suburban. One minor problem I had was when I hit a hard object and the plow snapped forward and down both of the little red plastic end markers that stick up broke off. Long exposure must weaken the plastic.



by: Brad11/07/2022

Overall, I was satisfied. Instructions could be more complete, and it was missing a few bolts and nuts. But Looks like a solid plow for the application I need.



by: Johnny P.05/07/2020

Ordered my front trailer hitch about a year ago. I use it for my surf fishing rod holder/equipment basket. Driving on the beach it's nice to have your rods and bait cooler in the front.
I tried to install it myself, but the holes didn't line up exactly. Took it to a shop and they put it on for me without much difficulty. Took them 20 minutes. No drilling involved....they were just strong enough to feed the bolts through the holes well enough to mount the hitch.
I'd buy this again.



by: Scott02/09/2022

Well worth the money! No longer having to worry about someone else coming to plow is a God send!!!



by: Daniel08/19/2023

Good for the price, really needs to be able to be able to angle from the cab of the truck. (deluxe model.)



by: Mark 07/30/2023

Fast and the way it was described



by: Stephen09/17/2022

I bought this front hitch for my 2018 Nissan Frontier. The video looked pretty straight forward but after numerous tries the holes to mount the hitch were slightly off. After a year I finally took it to a mechanic to help me install it. We could not use the large washers that came with the bolts because we needed the extra space to get the bolts into the holes. Even then, to get the last bolt in, it took one person using a pry bar to help line up the hole while another person got the bolt in. I’m not sure if the hitch got slightly damaged during shipping. The holes to bolt to the truck frame were off about an eighth of an inch. In the end the hitch is mounted but wasn’t as easy as the video showed.



by: Jeff11/08/2022

Great customer service, poor fitment of hitch. Purchased hitch for 2019 Frontier with no body damage. The four mounting holes to attach the hitch to the truck frame were drilled at an diagonal angle. I had to expand them with a carbide bit-30 plus minutes. Hitch holes still did not line up with frame. I then stood the hitch up on its end, and used a lot of cribbing and a 10 ton bottle jack to expand the distance between the mounting arms a 1/4 inch to allow it to line up with the weld nuts in the trucks frame. Definitely not a 40 minute job like it states on the web site. Hitch is now mounted, but it was an effort to get it there.



by: Charles 11/10/2022

i placed this on my truck a year ago with a 9 ton winch on it i’ve pulled several stuck tractors on lots of 18” diameter trees and haven’t had a single issue with it. i will say that i need a lift kit on my truck because some side walks and what not are a little high and i do scrap the bottom of it. but it holding up well

by: Kevin 10/28/2022

Works great even better than the old fisher plow even though this one swings manually, the blade goes much higher when pushing up banks of snow.

Good finish and appearance. Sturdy. Didn't fit though. Had to use a Hi-lift jack to spread mounts to get it to fit.

  • Will This Detail K2 Snow Plow Fit A 2016 F150 With A 4 Lift & 35" Tires?
  • The Detail K2 Snowplow # K2AVAL8219 will fir your 2020 GMC Sierra 1500 even with the big 35" tires and lift. The potential issue is functionality. A plow attaches to your frame, which is now separated from your suspension by another 4 inches and then there's the distance to the ground depending on what size tires you're running. Using 35's will just make the distance even greater. That's where you'll see your plow not pushing properly. The plow needs to transfer and distribute loads back

  • The only way the Curt Front Hitch part # 31241 that you referenced can be installed on a vehicle like your 2011 Nissan Frontier would be with it attaching to the bottom of your vehicle frame.
