    For Kawasaki Teryx...the square ubolts...need about 1/2" extra clearance on the slots right where the plow arms would come up. The only one shown in the manual is for the mule. You guys have the clearance on the inside gap where the arms would come up...but if you guys would cut those slots a little longer open...then boom. As it stands...tomorrow will involve so drilling. :/

    Oh...and I know it costs money...but if you guys could make the pictures a tad bigger and maybe with colour...that would be awesome.

    I have plows on a 1990 Honda FourTrax 300 and a 2001 Honda FourTrax 500 (Rubicon). The plows are branded by CMP and Moose but CMP (Cambridge Metal and Plastic) actually manufactured both of them I think. Both ATV’s are still in operation with their original plow blades and mounting hardware. And both have spent many hours plowing many driveways here in Minnesota, especially the older one. After watching this video, I’m glad I didn’t buy that bolted together lightweight Koplin plow. It doesn’t look to me like it would hold up to the rigors of the plowing that my CMP plows have. The CMP plows are constructed of heavier gauge all steel construction. And the plow blade and push tubes are all single welded together assemblies. Sure, you can’t pack them into such a small box so they’re cheaper to warehouse and ship, but I’ll bet mine are a lot stronger and they have stood the test of time. I’ve gone through at least 5-6 1/4” X 3” X 60” steel reversible wear bars in the older plow. So it’s seen a lot of use. I know someone is going to accuse me of shilling for a competitor of Koplin. Not true. I’m just an ATV owner in snowy Minnesota. in fact I own some Koplin accessories and generally have a high regard for their products. Just not this one.

    I’d be concerned about the receiver mount on the bottom of the atv getting trashed when riding on the trails since it hangs down reducing ground clearance.

    I dont know what the complaints are about this. This thing works great on my Ranger 700. Dont be an idiot and try and ram snow at 20+ miles per hour. Have some common sense about it and you will see it moves snow great.

    Good thing you didn’t use a tourqe wrench to 17 lbs, because I did and the cheap Chinese hardware that comes with this plow had 3 carriage bolts snap in half on their own.

    He doesn't explain the 2 different sizes. He's making it full length, but if you want 60" leave one of the short brackets out, and put the 2 long brackets on the outside and the short one in the middle.

    You get what you pay for.....cheap price, cheap plow with Chinese hardware and shotty mounting options. Do yourself a favor and Spend the extra $200.00 more for a quality moose or warn plow system that will last a lot longer.
