When I had the kind of plow that needed them I used hitch pins that have a wire clip to hold them in. That's what came with the plow. I still have a few lying around but I don't know what size you're supposed to have for your plow. http://www.wilsonmfgco.com/hitchpins/wirelockpins.htm

 

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]I use a similar pin as Jumbofrank only mine are square shaped wire clips. Here at my local hardware junkstore they call them "pto pins" $1.29 ea. Also I always have a couple spare nearby just in case. I also use them to secure my ramp under my trailer bed when I don't need to padlock it . Good Luck.

 

I've never had a Moose pin break on me so that is all I've ever used.

thats the kinda pin i wanna find.. where can i pick them up.. i think they are 3/8's... dont quote me on it tho... but i remember someone sayin them numbers lol....

 

[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]Any fleet/farm supply store should carry those type pins. Do you have a Tractor Supply Store in your area? Good Luck!!

 

i was at fleet farm today and forgot to look for themm.. .i'll check it out next time im there.. thanks boys

 

They have hitch pins at Lowes and Home Depot, and any decent hardware store too. My plow had the pins with square wire loops to fit around the push tube. The Polaris Multi-Mount winch and bumper I had used smaller pins with round loops. Skinnier pins are good to latch a trailer coupler if you don't have a lock on it. Just make sure you get the right diameter and length. Probably 3/8" x 2-1/2 or 3 inch for the plow.
