Default Snoway 29 series Plow - the real deal

The DC TRD came home with a nice HD Snoway 29 series plow today. With the poly blade it weighs about 558 pounds, the Tundra had no issues with it, it drove very nice w/o wallowing or anything of the type... I don't expect any problems, but if anything arises I will report. The extra 100 lbs over the 26 series along with Snoway's down pressure made quick work of scraping up some junk leftover from the last storm. I'll post a pic tomorrow...

The 29 series was $4100 installed w/ the poly blade. The dealer/installer I purchased from is Howe Brother's in Troy NY. I do not know what retail is, but the two other dealers I called wanted $4600 and $5100!!!

I have a snow bear plow to do my own driveway with . Nothing fancy just a power up electric 12 volt plow, I have had plow 6 years ,no major problems and under 1000 dollars new. My biggest investments are my mounts for the trucks.

Correct about the height, but don't forget the extra weight of the blade.

Normally not too many folks touch my vehicles. I wrench/build and fabricate all sorts of stuff..... however coming off the flu and with five thousand other projects, I let them do it. I'll go over their install when I have a chance.... see what is broken, etc.

Pics soon...

well if you want the warranty on the plow ,they need to install the plow. They hacked up the skid plate and then installed the buss fuse for the plow by screwing it to the top of the plastic fuse box .they also cross treaded the mount where the tow hooks used to be. I plan on removing and re-installing the frame each year . I just don't want it on during the summer. When i had it installed in september i removed it as soon as i got home,thats when i found the nice stuff they had done. I did call to there attention to the fuse box before i left.

Nice setup...

Been using Snoway for 5 years now..Great setup..I put the 26 on mine with a 3" toytech 35" 10 ply tires for stability and an extra 2" of clearance (no sidewall flex)
