What brand of snow plow to buy

[kawasakikx250]

Hi all been looking at getting a snow plow for my quad. Been looking at the warm provantage 60" plow. What do you all think?

I have a brand new 66" Cycle Country poly blade for sale with a mount for a 2015 Yamaha grizzly and the manual lift. New in the box never installed. Pm me if your interested. I have had three different cycle country blades and they are one of the beefier ones out there.

Depending on your price range, Boss Plows have a couple of awsum UTV plows, but they are pricey.

Snow way is best plow you can buy and a lot lighter for your truck and only one that has down pressure of great force when back blading. I had one for yrs and woul never go back to steel plows. Many reasons why, research it yourself and see.

Ya.I would like to spend 500-650 range. This is my first plow and want to make sure I like it and use it before I spend a ton of money

I'd sell it for that. Almost 900 when I bought it. Got one for the farm truck instead. Rather plow with heat and a cup holder lol.

Thanks but I want a power lift

Have you had one before? Manual lift is the way to go Imo. Winch will drain your battery faster than the quad will charge it and once it's warm it melts snow on the cable and drum and it freezes.

Have the provantage and it's great. Call rapid revolutions, got a great price for them. I have never drained my battery using the winch.

Ya there is a lot of power lift plows out there and if they did that stuff no one would buy them.

renegade 1000 with a fully charged battery. I have to plow with the lights off at night or i lose power steering in 10 mins. Also if your plowing hard the fan runs lots which doesnt help the battery

 

[Toyboy]

I have had 3 different quads with blades. The first one I thought it was the quad so I replaced the battery and stator and it still killed the battery. Second one same thing but it did last longer until I put hand warmers on it. Plus the manual lift is faster.

If you plow a 1/4 mile between lifting and lowering the blade you might be OK but 20-30' pushes kills the battery. Any electrical accessories just compounds the issue.

My grizzly is 5 years old and on the original battery still. I plow for about half an hour each time and the battery has never died from the winch. Maybe the charging system is stronger on the yamaha?

Possibly I'm not sure. The quads I tried were Suzuki Honda and can am. But when I was plowing it took me an hour or so. If the battery did last I had to put it on a charger before the next time I plowed or it wouldn't make 10 min.

i have the warn provantage, works well, had a moose not so good(bendy). 72" on the ranger, put larger tires on, went to install mount, and oh oh! need an extension. so i got the best deal at 4 wheel parts, way way cheaper than any dealer i talked to!! may look at a side wing, will see. thinking on finding some 4 inch baler belting for the top snow flap. and yes the battery will drain on a lot of short pushes, longer is a bit more forgiving! i need to make some kind of device to stop from lifting plow too high with winch, have busted 5/16 inch amsteel rope lots. 4500lb winch and a snatch block tends to do that? lol.

I like the canam blades , well made and work awesome ...

I've never had this happen, and I've plowed for 5 straight hours before.

I also like the Can Am blades, but it may depend on what kinda quad you want to run it on.

I have the Alpine Flex 60" on my XMR, and although I've only used it ONE time in the last 2 years (many times 3 winters ago), I LOVE it. Wouldn't use anything but.
