The only difference between the Detail K2 Summit II Snowplow # K2SUMM8826 and the Detail K2 Storm II Snowplow # K2STOR8422 is the actual size of the snowplow. The Summit II is 88" Wide x 26" Tall while the Storm II is 84" Wide x 22" Tall.

If the vehicle you plan on using the plow with is the 1989 Jeep YJ you input for your vehicle info then the mounting brackets you need for either of the plows mentioned above come in the Kit # K284115. Let me know if you have a different vehicle and I can help you find the correct mounting brackets in that case.

There is a drop extension available for a snow plow on your 1989 Jeep YJ, but you'll have to go with a SnowBear plow instead of a Detail K2 like you initially asked about. For SnowBear plow equivalents to what was mentioned above we have the following: 88" Wide x 26" Tall Electric Actuator - # SB324-116 Hydraulic Actuator - # SB324-217 84" Wide x 22" Tall Electric Actuator - # SB324-167 Hydraulic Actuator - # SB324-204 Once you decide on the dimensions and actuator style you'd like for the snow plow you'll need the mounting bracket kit # SB397-024 as well as the 3" Drop Extension Kit # SB324-128.

I would recommend going with a snow plow for your 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited that uses frame brackets to attach to the vehicle instead of a front hitch. The brackets are a bit more secure and less likely to fail than a hitch. I say that because…

The biggest difference I have seen between the two style is in the amount of play they have side to side. While it isn't a ton there is more play in the single connection point than what you will get out of the custom frame bracket types. We…

Answer 5

Ram's will naturally squat a bit more because of the rear coil springs, but if you're dealing with a lot of squat then air springs would be the best option to help get you back to factory ride height. Coil air springs, like the #AL60828HD,…
