[Colorado 700-4]

I finally got that long awaited call from Honda and took a trip to my dealer for the winch install. It is a 4000 lb Warn and not a 2000 and I earlier thought. They insisted on installing the winch for me because of the wiring, so why would I argue, they didn't charge me. We also put the roof on because it was in a huge box and was more convenient than strapping that to the trailer. I got home and installed the plow push tubes and the blade. I finished the evening installing the windshield and I'm very happy with everything. Just in time too, forecast for southern Colorado 5 to 10" of snow for Friday....letterrrrrr rip baby!

Sweet... looks like the plow would lift high enough to touch the bumper.

Very nice. I run that front mounted provantage system on my king quad. Be mindful of the pins that hook the tubes to the mounting bracket. I have lost a couple, one while plowing and one when riding it came loose when the plow was off. I keep a couple extra on hand now.

Nice setup!

I was just looking at plows on the cycle country site this morning.

I noticed that, they don't seem to clip on very tight...I even bent one so it would fit tighter. Thanks for the tip. I might look at the tractor supply for better pins, or might even make better ones.

I does lift plenty high enough, but need to watch I don't run the end of cable into that pulley. I'll get better action pictures in a day or so. It's snowing out now....yaaaay.

How's the visibility of the blade when your plowing? Can you see it over the hood very well?

 

[nnewstrom]

Visibility

Im 5 foot 11 and i can see fairly well but not as much as i would like. I am thinking about adding some plow markers.

Does your pup ride shotgun while you plow?

 

[nnewstrom]

Not on the seats but in the back.

Ya he likes riding in the back, i dont put him in the front becasue im scared he might tear the seats up.

Ha! Mans best friend. As long as he doesn't tear up the upholstery.

My two dogs rarely get to ride. Usually kids fill up the seats first.
