hello, hows anybody used a 98 recon 250 4 plowing? and if so what plow set up.
im looking at the swisher set up or the tusk set up?
whats you guys ideas thanks.
ive done several searches on here and cant find what im looking for.
winch set up also, im thinking of going with.
thanks for looking

 

I have 2 Recons and have never plowed snow with either, however my experience with both is that anything over about 4"-5" of snow and they do not move too well at all so doubt they would plow any real amount very well either.

 

Personally I'm using a KQ 450 with a Warn 60" plow and I'm quite pleased.

I feel that the 4 wheel drive is very important and is what makes any plow work.

This topic came up last year and one fellow said that the 250s worked well IF you know HOW to use them...

He went on to describe the plow and how he added extra weight over the drive wheels to ensure traction. ... OK if it works for you go for it, but it sounds like you're stressing out the frame, engine and suspention to me.

But that's just my opinion.

 

thanks guys. i dont get much snow here in ny were i live. i was just looking to tool around with it.
bair. i did a search on that topic and he put 60lbs on the hitch from traction. i might give it a try.
later.i might be stressing out hte machine but it might be fun also. oh well
thanks
again
