I think I need to put a 10-12' snow plow on "The Duke"...
I think the best way to go is a self-contained unit with a plow set up to run either 24v or 12v via an inverter unit. That way I don't have to add anything to the truck engine to pump hydraulic fluid to the hydraulics for the plow. And, I also don't need to run any extra things into the cab to make the plow work. I think I want to switch over to super single tires: A3 14.5R20 style tires would be my choice. Does anyone know a good place to buy them? Another addition is of course Air-Lockers to the truck's axles. Those are very important. But the real question I'm having is with what sort of reinforcing does the front of the truck need to handle a 10-12' power angle plow weighing in with mount around 1300lbs or so??? I think it will be a snow pushing monster with lockers.
