i remember posts about the glacier II from last winter......i couldnt see what the big deal was...untill i used mine.....the bottom of the plow frame drags the ground....wtf....i have my shocks cranked up as high as they will go.......HAS ANYONE MODIFIED ONE??? after i plowed and cussed the darn thing i studied it and i think if i cut 1 TO 2 inches out of the downward tubes it will raise the bottom of the plow frame up off the ground.....and unless the plow frame sits pretty level you cant angle the blade or only 1 side of the blade will touch the ground...... thanks for letting me vent....any othe ideas???? please chime in

 

Have you checked your blade angle? Mine doesn't drag at all, perhaps the mount is for a hawkeye and not a sportsman?

When I first got mine it didn't work at all, turns out the hawkeye fram and not the sportsman frame...

 

I dont have any problem with mine...plowed 10 inches of snow off my drive way this morning. Like watz said are you sure its the right mount?

 

here is a pic of mine, Like the others have said check your mount

 

well i removed the plow frame and took the blade off and i cut 1 1/2 inches out of the 1x2 tube that runs up and down just below the mount plate.....welded it back to gether and reinstalled on the bike ......now the bottom on the push tubes is level with the ground....it still only sits about 2 inches off the ground but it doesnt drag anymoore either......

 

jpn 800 i see on yours the back is higher than the front.....your is a 500 also.....but on mine where the bottom tubes turn up they dragged on the ground

 

I do have HD front springs if that makes a difference.

 

curious as to whats different on yours? Don't have any clearance issues what so ever with my 500 with no spacers or heavy duty springs.

 

Mine also looks like the one in the picture. I have no problems at all. I have even plowed some black dirt last summer with it.

 

I think the difference is colts is a xp?
