yea it will get it plenty high enough,,,its just like i said,its slower than the manual,and it adds alot of wear to the winch,and cable

you can really plow alot faster with the manual actuator,,,,i started out using the winch,and when i saw a friend using his manual lift,i said screw the winch,and bought the manual for mine,and was happier for it

ROFL,,,,,,my firt quad was a Trailboss,and for a 2 wheel drive,i had a blast in the snow with it,also there's something about blazing trails in untouched snow

when it starts snowing,and i know i wont be going to work the next day,we go riding all night in it,theres nothing like it

i have a good size pond,and when the ice gets about a foot thick,i plow it off,and we hit it,and yank the wheels to one side,and you go spinning from one side to the other,,,its a trip,,,winter just gives you a differant kind of riding

I have a 60" moose plow and if you have a Grizz I would higly reccomend it. The 60" provides a nice swath that clears the snow beyond your tires. As well if you angle the plow it's still wider than your bike. My warn winch lifts it with easy. My only reccomendation for this setup, is that you adjust your shocks to the stiffest setting. This will the keep the front end from squatting when the plow is raised.
