Well I bought a swisher plow for my sportsman 500 last week. today I was plowing the two feet of snow we got and hit the corner on a hard snow bank from last week and bent my plow mount! just wondering how other brands are holding up on your guys wheelers? I will have to heat it up and hammer it straight and weld some 1/4" plate to strengthen it but it is fixable and still plows ok like it is.

Just a couple hours ago, I rammed my plow at an angle into the frozen ground across the street from my driveway. Probably the hardest I've hit it yet. I was wondering if the plow itself would bend, but so far it's holding up very well!

I have the Glacier II mount with the 60" plow.

 

has any body made there own plow mounts or plows for that matter how well have they stood up the reason why im asking is because i dont have alot of money to spend on a plow and mi brother can weld and has all the stuff to make one jw

 

i push a 60 inch cycle country and there has been a few times this thing should have gave uout and bent.. i am verry impressed w/ this plow set up i have no reason to even look at another brand... 2 pins and hook up the trusty winch and off i go...mmmmmmmmmm beeer!

 

I have an American eagle. I use mine a lot in the woods cleanin' stuff up. I've slammed mine off roots, stumps, and rocks that I thought were going to throw me off the bike. I've never bent mine. 1000 lbs of bike and rider is a lot of momentum to stop at rammin speed. I can't believe I haven't bent it yet but its straight as an arrow.

 

I was looking at the swisher plow for my X2 then my father-in-law pointed out the price to me on a glacier II, I paid right around $500 for the mount, frame and 52" blade and havent had any problems with it yet. I figured the swisher plow to be just a little bit cheaper, but I didnt like how it attached to the a-arms and that you had to remove it to ride trails, so I went with the glacier.

 

My Moose plow has working without a problem for two seasons now. Only slight snowbank ramming, nothing out of hand. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
