Snow plow on a KJ

I am thinking about putting a plow on my CRD and wondered if any one else has or knows some one who has. I have found plows by sno-way and the have 3 they recommend varying in size 6', 6'8" and 7'6". The latter seems too big to me since my 3/4 ton truck sometime has trouble with a 7'6" in wet snow. Any thoughts?

many people say its a stupid idea b/c the kj has a uniframe. I wouldnt see problem with a small light weight plow just to do the driveway or something of that nature.. :wink:

Don't get anything bugger than a 6'. Like said by others I would only do light plowing.

I looked into this as well and that's a lot of the same info. Most places I inquired at first told me to get a real truck :evil:

, then I told them it was just "light duty" - my drive way :lol:

. Advised on a 6' blade max and, if you don't have it already, HD cooling fluids. For a CRD I highly doubt you should have a prob with that set-up.

I was looking some more and noticed that plows vary in height. The one for my truck is 29" and the one for the liberty is 22".

Might want to look into doing a small clevis lift or maybe add some rustys .75in spacers so the front wont be so low with the plow on.. :wink:

Someone here or on Jeep KJ Country was trying to sell a light weigth one last year. I think they still had it. Might search.

This is a good company. I actually have one of their trailers, I believe it is a Model 800 or something. I had some paint issues where it started to peel like a 1980's GM car, emailed Snowbear to complain, they sent me all new side pieces and fenders plus a HD cover.
