Question:
I have a 2005 Dodge Ram 1500 4 door and have the dual receiver mount attached to front of truck that I used with a Brake Buddy setup. Question, Do you have a snowplow setup that can use this mount as it is already wired and attached. I no longer use this truck behind a RV

Hey James it sounds like you are asking if there is a way to attach a plow setup to the base plate kit you have installed on your truck currently which the answer to that would be no. You'd need to go with plow mounts instead like the Detail part # K284313 so you could use a plow like the K2 Storm II Elite part # K2STOR8422ELT.

Hey James, how did things go with the Detail K2 Storm II Elite plow and the new mount for your Ram? Your update could make it easier for others looking to switch from a tow setup to a plow mount.
