The Detail K2 Elite snowplow conveniently slides into your vehicle's front-mounted trailer hitch for fast, simple mounting. Easily raise and lower the plow from the comfort of your cab with the remote-controlled wireless actuator. The pivoting blade makes this plow ideal for rocky or uneven surfaces because it can adjust to the terrain.
Simple, Hitch-Mounted Installation
This hitch-mounted snowplow simply slides into your vehicle's front trailer hitch receiver, making it a breeze to install. A plow that attaches to custom-fit brackets ties you down to just 1 vehicle. But this hitch-mounted plow can be used on most trucks or SUVs with a 2" x 2" front-mounted hitch. As a result, this plow can be easily switched between multiple vehicles. And because it offers a nearly universal fit, you won't have to buy a new plow when you replace your old vehicle.
To install the Elite snowplow, just slide the shank of the plow assembly into your 2" trailer hitch receiver (sold separately). Then use a pin and clip or a hitch lock (sold separately) to secure the plow in the receiver.
The Elite snowplow comes with flip-down caster wheels that make the installation process even easier on you. Simply flip the wheels into position and you will be able to roll the plow into position for mounting or storage. The height of the wheels can also be adjusted to match the height of your vehicle.
How to Plow
Once the plow is mounted on your vehicle, lower the blade and set it to the desired angle. To set the angle, exit the vehicle and manually position the plow straight ahead, to the left, or to the right. Angling the blade allows you to push snow off to the side where you want it without having to change the angle of your entire vehicle. This is especially useful on a driveway or a private roadway where piling the snow straight ahead would create a barrier.
To begin plowing, just drive forward. When backing up to take another pass, be sure to lift the plow with the remote, then lower it again before moving forward. When approaching a large pile of snow, be sure to decrease your speed. Slamming into a pile of snow can void the warranty on the snowplow.
When you are finished, put your vehicle in park and lower the plow. Remove the plow from your vehicle after every use.
Smooth, Controlled Lifting with Electric Actuator
The electric actuator on this plow allows you to lift and lower the blade using either a toggle switch that installs in your cab or the included wireless remote control.
To raise the plow, use the switch or remote to activate the actuator. As the actuator moves along the internal screw, the arm on top of the actuator will pivot, raising the plow blade by pulling the chain that is attached to it. This simple, chain-lifting design has fewer moving parts than other plow-lifting devices, so the setup is less complicated and there are fewer parts to have to repair or replace.
This actuator lifts and lowers the snowplow blade smoother than an electric winch. In addition, fewer amps are required to run an actuator than to operate an electric winch, which means that the solenoid on the Detail K2 Elite will last twice as long as the solenoid on a plow that uses a winch. There is also a built-in clutch that prevents damage to the actuator if you try to raise the blade too high or drop it too low. The electric actuator is built to withstand extreme temperatures and wet conditions with its completely sealed gearbox and housing.
Detail K2 Features
The snowplow features skid shoes that allow you to adjust the height of your plow. This allows you to efficiently plow over surfaces that are uneven, such as gravel roads.
Blade stiffeners, or blade support brackets, reinforce the connection between the plow and your vehicle. They add 2 additional points of contact with your hitch on either side of the plow's T-frame. This prevents stress on the frame and on your vehicle, while also strengthening the performance of the plow.
Shock-absorbing springs allow the plow to dip forward in the event that you hit an obstruction. This flexibility protects you and your vehicle from impacts.

Hitch-mounted residential plow has shock-absorbing springs and a steel-edge blade to easily clear driveways and parking lots. Long-lasting actuator with internal clutch and wireless remote lets you raise or lower the 3-position blade from your cab.by: Carlos02/20/2021
This thing is fantastic! My girlfriend and I put this thing together. It is perfect for keeping up with a storm. It is sturdy, takes a beating and keeps on going. I have a 2014 Ram ecodiesel. Would not use this plow setup for professional jobs however, only because it isn’t heavy enough to plow through mounds of snow covered ice. And when I say mounds, I mean 2 feet high and dense. Only drawback was shipping: I never received a tracking number from the shipping company but it did ship right away and was delivered in the time frame I was given. Enjoy guys!

These guys are awesome. Great support during and after purchase.

- Difference in Detail K2 Snowplow for 2" Hitches and the Detail K2 Elite Snowplow The Detail K2 Elite Snowplow for 2" Hitch, # K2AVAL8219ELT on your 2017 Nissan Frontier uses an electric actuator raise and lower the plow whereas the Detail K2, # K2AVAL8219 uses an electric winch. The Detail K2 Elite Snowplow, # K2AVAL8219ELT has an internal clutch that prevents damage caused by overextension of the actuator. It also uses a chain instead of a strap on the other model.

view full answer... - Best Snow Plow For 1999 Ford ExplorerI recommend getting the Detail K2 Plow as they are very popular and reliable for many years of use. Both will need this front trailers hitch receiver # C31051. If your 1999 Ford Explorer is 4 wheel drive, you'll need this kit # K2AVAL8219ELT and if you have a 2 wheel drive version you'll need this one # K2AVAL8219. Both function the same.
view full answer... - Recommended Snow Plow for 2019 Ford F-250The Detail K2 snow plows have two mounting options on your 2019 Ford F-250. One is the brackets # K281530 and the other is the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch # C31078. I would choose the front mounted hitch since it will allow you to use other accessories or other hitch mounted snow plows in the future if you wish. For a snow plow, it will depend on the size you want as well as how the plow is operated. If you're fine with the electric winch and nylon strap raising and lowering the plow...

This hitch can be mounted in a high or low position. If mounted in the high position there is some trimming required so you can access the receiver. No trimming is required for the low position and the receiver will be below the front air dam. I have linked a video showing an example installation for you. For a snow plow a popular option is the K2 Elite Snowplow # K2AVAL8219ELT. This plow is 82 inches wide...

I confirmed with my contact at DK2 that the mounted Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 31310 will interfere with the Custom Mounting Brackets for Detail K2 Snowplows # K281517. They cannot be mounted at the same time. With that being said, a great alternative is the Detail K2 Elite Snowplow for 2" Hitches - 82" Wide x 19" Tall # K2AVAL8219ELT. The Elite Snowplow fits right into a front-mounted 2-inch hitch receiver so you can use simultaneousl...
view full answer... - Recommended Detail K2 Rampage Snow Plow For a 1997 Dodge DakotaUsing the Custom Mounting Brackets # K284130 for the Detail K2 Rampage II Elite Snowplow # K2RAMP8219ELT is a much better option than using a Detail K2 Elite Snowplow for 2" Hitches # K2AVAL8219ELT. First you have 2 mounting points for the winch to attach to making the connection point stronger. And since you will have to have a custom made front receiver welded up it is impossible to know the exact ratings and capacities for that receiver. I prefer the Elite # K2RAMP8219ELT version with...

Since you have the additional weight from the EcoHitch Hidden Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7904 and your Cargo Carrier # e98874 on your front suspension these springs will help to absorb the road shock you are experiencing.
