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.

I got the hitch and made a appointment to have it put on. That fell through so I decided to tackle it myself. It was extremely easy, my wife helped hold it in place while I got the bolts started. I use the hitch which I install in the front of my 2500 Ram to haul my ebikes on a bike rack. Works excellent.

It’s working as intended. I did install a extension tube so the bike rack could fold up.

Please keep in mind that most extensions will cut the tongue weight capacity of the hitch in half. That capacity does include the weight of the rack and the bikes.


by: Mike07/25/2023

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

2012 Ram 2500

I was totally amazed at the quality and the fit to my truck this hitch went on so easy even though I have a brush guard on this truck also. This item went on in about 45 minutes and that was to unpack it and get out the tools start to finish.

Jim M.

2/25/2017

Great I use it all the time in tight places, so much easier then backing in a trailer in small areas



by: Keen74705/05/2024

Perfect for my application, very high quality. The only reason I didn’t give it five stars was the packaging was not the greatest. Part of my hitch had ripped through the box and was pretty scuffed up. I really appreciated the installation video on your website, but I wish it was shown with a factory installed winch, which made the installation more difficult.



by: Mitchell02/10/2024
2018 Ram 2500

This hitch is perfect. It's great quality and it bolted up easily. Took me just over 1 hour to install.



by: Gene10/25/2017
2017 Dodge Ram Pickup

Hitch arrived in three days, installed in an hour! Perfect fit on my 2017 Ram Tradesman 2500 HD. Will have to lengthen my bike rack tube due to design of rack. Thanks Sammy for calling Curt, then guaranteeing return shipping if no fit. You can hardly notice it's there!



by: Rick 11/07/2023

The hitch has done exactly what I had bought it for: to hold an adjustable, vertical T-bar at the front of my truck for supporting long cargo like canoes, extension ladders. As the need arises I'm sure it will work fine as a hitch for backing wagons into sheds, etc. But the need hasn't presented itself yet.
The only unusual trait I've seen is that the hitch doesn't set perfectly level, in the same plane with the truck. The mounting holes, both in the truck frame and the hitch, left no room for adjusting, but the hitch works as it is and I'm satisfied.



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.



by: Richard H.10/03/2017
2017 Dodge Ram Pickup

Wasn't sure this part would fit on my 2017 Ram 2500 Power Wagon, because Curt hadn't "approved" it yet, but it went on very easy. They included longer bolts that were needed due to my built in winch and the feeder wires were a great help. I lost a little approach clearance, but it is worth it. etrailer was great during the order process.



by: Robert06/26/2020

Pretty easy to install with the right tools. Not really noticable after it is installed. You do have to loosen the bumper, but you don't have to remove it. I bought it for a bicycle rack, works perfectly.



by: Michelle L03/28/2020

Good solid hitch. Took about an hour with help of my son. The drivers side on 2016 Ram Diesel was pretty easy but the passagers side was a bit challenging, because the two bolts that needed to be pushed in were being restricted on the other side but we got it done.



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: Ken07/14/2019

Ship time was super fast. Product is very heavy duty and the powder coat was perfect. All the hardware is included plus some cool wire to help fish a bolt through a tight spot. Directions were 95% useful and I also found a video by the manufacturer showing how to install it. Could not be more happy.



by: Bill 04/04/2024

works grate useing for ebikes not to hard to put on looks grate



by: Jeff 07/22/2023

Installation was a little rough but now that its on, it is perfect! Some guys have posted that they installed it by themselves and much respect to them. I needed two guys, a floor jack, a bottle jack (to spread the ends apart an extra 1/8 inch), a pry bar, a hammer, and a bigger hammer. The most important tool of all though is the etrailer installation video. the written instructions are not good and they only make sense after watching the video.



by: Robert 05/01/2023
2018 Ram 2500

Very sturdy, well made hitch. Easy to install and included all needed hardware. The instructions could be a bit more clear, the pictures miss some details. Such as the carriage bolt retainers need to be installed that the shorter ends back up to each other or else they will overlap and not allow the fasteners to be flush. Overall, I would purchase again and recommend this product.



by: Michael 09/28/2022
2017 Ram 2500

Excellent product. was shipped timely and while easy to install either have a other person on hand or use a jack to hold this thing up. For my truck you have to angelic back and then up to align everything. Also you are unbolting the front bumper so there will be some wiggling etc. A second person def helps!



by: Michael 12/30/2023

Works well for the price.



by: Bill H.02/05/2013

First, the Etrailer experience was excellant! Easy to order, no shipping fees and fast delvery. Great job Etrailer.
Secondly, the hitch from Curt is a heavy duty and functional hitch.
Thirdly, the instructions provided by Curt are pictured backwards in the instruction sheets, and the professional mechanic took 1 1/2 hrs to install, and called Curt tech support( 1-800-798-0813 on 2-5-13, having to ask about the backwards pictures in the instructions and was told by the person from Curt--yep you are right, they are backwards!
Rating--Etrailer=excellant,
Curt rating = Good( because of the instructions issue and it costing me more for the install. Should have been a 1/2hr. install from a professional, as per the instructions, and it was not!
If the instructions were correct, maybe a 45 minute to 1 hour install.



by: Sara09/01/2023

Quick delivery and great product! Holds both our EBikes securely as we travel the country!



by: Ron04/11/2019
2012 Dodge Ram Pickup

Fast delivery. Fits like a glove on my 2012 Ram 2500 4x4. Installed by myself, took about an hour and half using two jack stands. Hardest part was getting the hole centered in the air dam. Only concern was whether I could get the bumper back to factory location as mine dropped appox 1/4". Couldn't get it back but took measurements and it was still level. Looks great!!

I love this plow. It works great for our long driveway. This was easy to assemble and easy to take on and off our Honda Ridgeline.



by: Vonzy04/28/2023

awesome hitch. very well made. went on the nose of my '12 power wagon.



by: Matt 03/29/2020
2014 Dodge Ram Pickup

I put this on a 2014 Ram 2500 Crew Cab. I use it in conjunction with the Thule Hitching Post Pro - Folding Tilting 4 Bike Rack w Anti-Sway - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches (TH934XTR) to take our bikes along when pulling our camper. It works well and sits out far enough to clear the front bumper. I considered the Draw Tite (65063), but I'm glad I didn't go that way as the bikes would have sat much too high and would have blocked my field of view. The bikes do bounce some, which made me nervous initially, but the hitch and the bike rack have held up well after one year.



by: J. Martinez10/29/2019
2018 Dodge Ram Pickup

Rock solid and a must for off road and camping.
I had some trouble with mounting ( I’m not very mechanically inclined ) but I did it and would recommend to any one. I got the hitch for under the bumper a must for not getting in the way of trans cooler. 2018 Ram 2500 Cummings turbo diesel

Do you have a question about this Snow Plow?


  • 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.

  • Front Hitch Plow Recommendation for 2004 Jeep Cherokee with 2 inch Hitch
  • For your 2004 Jeep Cherokee that has a 2 inch front hitch installed the SnowBear Personal SnowPlow part # SB324-080 would be a great option. This plow is 82 inches wide which is a good size for your vehicle and comes with everything needed to allow you to control it from inside the cab of your vehicle.

  • Correct Replacement Winch for SnowBear Personal Snowplow for 2" Hitches - 82" Wide x 19" Tall
  • The correct replacement winch for the SnowBear Personal Snowplow for 2" Hitches - 82" Wide x 19" Tall part # SB324-080 is the Replacement Single Speed Electric Winch part # SB263-282. There is not individual replacement parts for the winch unfortunately.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

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.

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.

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.

  • 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.

In the video you are referring to for the Curt Front Hitch - 2" # C31086, that shows the installation of the hitch on a 2018 Wrangler.

  • Is Bumper Modification Required to Install a Front Mount Hitch on a 2003 Dodge Durango

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.

  • Is Install of Curt Front Hitch # C31015 the Same on 2016 Ram 2500 as Install Video for 2010 Ram
  • Ride height on trucks has a tendency to go up over time we have found. I am not surprised that your 2016 Ram 2500 would have a higher ride height vs. a 2010 model. Fit and trimming would be the same on your truck but the hitch ground clearance would be different.

It has a vertical load limit of 500 lbs which would be adequate for the weight of your 325 lb motorcycle and carrier like the etrailer motorcycle carrier part # e98873. You might want to install front suspension enhancement on your truck like the Firestone kit part # F4193 to help provide more support when carrying the motorcycle.

  • Which Front Hitch Fits 2017 Ram 2500 2 Wheel Drive
  • The front end steering and suspension components are slightly different between the four wheel drive and the two wheel drive models of the 2017 Ram 2500 which is why the # C31015 does not fit the 2 wheel drive models. Only option we have is the Draw Tite part # 65063 which does mount right above the license plate. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well.

  • Recommended Front Trailer Hitch And Snowplow For 2015 Ram 2500 4-Wheel Drive
  • The front trailer hitch I recommend for your Ram is the Curt Front Hitch, part # C31015. This hitch has a 2 inch receiver opening and can be used with many accessories like a plow or a winch. I have attached a link to an installation video you can check out. The snowplow I recommend is the SnowBear Personal Snowplow, part # SB324-080. This system comes with an electric winch that allows you to raise or lower the plow from the comfort of your truck cab. The plow has an adjustable, 5-position

  • Curt or Draw-Tite Front Mount Hitch for 2018 Ram 2500
  • I am happy to recommend a front mount hitch for your 2018 Ram 2500, but I did want to first point out that the Curt # C31089 that you mentioned is not designed for your truck. This particular hitch is designed to fit the 2019 model Ram 2500, so it's not going to line up to the frame rails on your 2018 Ram. The correct Curt Front Hitch for your 2018 Ram 2500 is the part # C31015 as long as you have the 4WD. The Draw-Tite # 65063 you referenced as well is also a confirmed fit. Between

  • Hitch Bike Rack Clearance When Used on Front-Mount Hitch Receiver on 2014 Ram 2500
  • When we installed Curt front hitch # C31015 on a 2010 Ram 2500 the hitch pin hole was positioned 9-1/2-inches behind the leading edge of the front bumper cover. This means that the excellent Kuat NV 2.0 2-Bike Platform Rack # NV22G would clear the front of the vehicle when in its down (bike carrying) position but would NOT be able to fold up when it is unloaded. It is a virtual certainty that parts of the inner bike would contact the vehicle. Since front hitches tend to need more clearance

  • Line Pull Capacity Of Curt Front Mount Receiver On a 2015 Ram 2500 With Hitch Extender On Winch
  • A 8" # 80307 or 14" # HE12 Hitch Extender will not lower the line pulling capacity for the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # C31015 on your 2015 Ram 2500. Instead you will be limited to the tow rating of the extender which is going to be 3,500lbs for the 8" and 7,000lbs for the 12". If you use the extenders for a hitch mounted accessory or with a trailer is the only time the maximum capacity will be reduced with an extender. The Roadmaster High-Low Adapter # RM-048-2 does have

  • Is Front-Mounted Hitch Capacity for Winch Use Affected By Using High/Low Hitch Adapter
  • Front-mounted hitches for Rams such as the Curt # C31015 have ratings for both vertical force and for linear pull, the latter being the case when used with a winch. This hitch has a 500-lb vertical load limit but a 5000-lb line pull limit. If you were to use a hitch high/low adapter that gives you a height increase, such as # RM-048-4 from Roadmaster, you would retain your full hitch line pull capacity IF the winch cable remained absolutely level when in use. But if you had any deviation

  • Comparing Front Mount Receiver Hitches That Fit a 2015 Ram 2500 4X4 For Carrying a Winch
  • The Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # C31015 does sit very far behind and below the factory bumper. When we installed it on a 2015 Ram 2500 like yours in our shop the hitch receiver pin sat 10" behind the leading front edge of the bumper. Since there are several different winches and mounts available and without knowing how the new bumper will change that 10" measurement it is hard to know exactly what will fit until the new bumper is installed. My biggest concern with this comes

  • 2 Inch Trailer Hitch Extension for 2014 Dodge Ram with Front Mount Trailer Hitch
  • I do have a solution that might work for you, though it is not an extender. An extender would reduce your tongue weight capacity of the hitch by half, so it is not the best solution for you. Instead, I recommend a long ball mount. Take a look at # 2736 as an example. It is rated for 5,000 pounds and measures 12 inches long from the center of the hitch pin hole to the center of the ball hole. It has a 3/4 inch rise or a 2 inch drop. We also have # BM20. This ball mount measures 13-1/4"

  • Front Mounted Hitch Receiver for 2015 Ram 3500 Tradesman
  • We do indeed have front mounted receivers that are compatible with the 2015 Ram 3500 Tradesman model. If your Ram has the front mounted tow hooks that protrude through the bumper (see photo), you can use the Draw-Tite Front Receiver, part # 65063. If your truck isn't equipped with the tow hooks, you'd need to use the Curt # C31015 which mounts to the frame members rather than the tow hooks. If you click the provided link, you can see a video showing the Draw-Tite model being installed
