Snowplow Installation
Front or rear mount? Versatility is the SnowSport LT's middle name.
Installation is quick and simple - just slide the included shank assembly into your 2" hitch receiver and secure with pin.
Once the plow frame is connected, attach the blade by lifting one end at a time onto the frame's holders. The lightweight aluminum blade construction makes lifting or adjusting an easy, one-person job. Secure the blade in either the transport or plowing position with the plow's snap pins. The low-profile design won't block your headlights, and the transport position is secure enough for highway travel.
If using with a rear-mount receiver, simply lower the blade to plow position and back up as usual. For a front-mounted plow blade, just drive forward with the blade in the plow position. The unique design takes the hassle out of plowing: This device has no hydraulics or complicated wiring. The push frame on the shank assembly allows the blade to move along the grade of the terrain for easier, more efficient plowing. The heavy-duty rubber cutting edge is effective yet turf friendly, collecting snow and squeegeeing slush without digging into the ground.
When you are ready to reverse your driving direction, the blade lies back, skimming over the surface of the ground until you change direction again to plow.
Handy blade markers extend vertically from the ends of the plow to help you see where you are plowing.
With the SnowSport LT, plowing snow is as easy as backing out of your driveway. Once you are finished plowing, simply lift the blade, refasten it in the transport position and head off for work or errands.

Today on this 2010 Dodge Ram 2500, were going to install part number c31015 from Curt. This is what it looks like when the hitch is installed on the vehicle. Next we will give you some measurements that will help you out when selecting some accessories. From the center of the pin hitch hole to the outside edge of the bumper is going to be 9-1/2, and from the top of the receiver tube down to the ground is going to be 13. Now I will go ahead and show you how the hitch is installed. Alright our first step we have to make a notch in an air dam at the bottom of the bumper.
So we find our center, we reference the center rib bit behind the license plate and go down from there. And from this center point right here we have to make a notch that is 2-1/2 wide, and our height is going to be 1.875 tall. We are going to take some tin slips to make our two vertical cuts and well use a knife to go across the top. We will score it just part way through and then we could snap it off. Next we are going to remove these two nuts on the bolts that are holding the bumper bracket in place.
Okay weve got our drivers side done, lets go over to the passengers side and do the same thing. Now next we need to install this spacer block right here. We are going to do this on both sides, but we also need to take this bolt and slide it to the inside where it is flush that way we can slide the hitch over it. These are bolts that are going to hold the bumper in place, loosen the tension on it and slide the bolts out. At this point now lets go ahead and install the hitch.
Now you will need an extra set of hands to help hold the hitch up and push the bolts through. Alright, this flange nut with the flat bottom here will be to replace the nut that we use on the bottom bolt. On our top bolt we can reinstall the factory nut. The remaining hitch hardwear that comes with the kit we will use these flange nuts with the textured bottom. Okay the attaching points here and here we will use the 7/16ths carriage bolt and block.
We will fish wire those from the inside out. We will start with the bottom hole, we will work our way up to this corner out here. Thread that in first, and then we will thread in our bolt, pull it on through, and then add our flange nut to the other side. Okay done with the drivers side, one more time on the passengers side. Alright with all our hardwear installed we can go ahead and snug it down and tork it down as specified in the instructions. With are hardwear torked down we are ready to go. And there you have it for part number c31015 from Curt. .

I got the hitch and made a appointment to have it put on. That fell through so I decided to tackle it myself. It was extremely easy, my wife helped hold it in place while I got the bolts started. I use the hitch which I install in the front of my 2500 Ram to haul my ebikes on a bike rack. Works excellent.
Perfect for my application, very high quality. The only reason I didn’t give it five stars was the packaging was not the greatest. Part of my hitch had ripped through the box and was pretty scuffed up. I really appreciated the installation video on your website, but I wish it was shown with a factory installed winch, which made the installation more difficult.
This hitch is fantastic, it was easy to install and with it I am now able to maneuver my 26 foot boat through the narrow opening of my fence and onto a concrete slab. The ordering process was fast and easy and the shipping to Hawaii was reasonable and got the hitch in just a few days. I also really appreciate the follow up asking if the item and install went ok. I will definitely order from etrailer for all my future trailering needs.
I was totally amazed at the quality and the fit to my truck this hitch went on so easy even though I have a brush guard on this truck also. This item went on in about 45 minutes and that was to unpack it and get out the tools start to finish.

Great I use it all the time in tight places, so much easier then backing in a trailer in small areas
Hitch arrived in three days, installed in an hour! Perfect fit on my 2017 Ram Tradesman 2500 HD. Will have to lengthen my bike rack tube due to design of rack. Thanks Sammy for calling Curt, then guaranteeing return shipping if no fit. You can hardly notice it's there!
Wasn't sure this part would fit on my 2017 Ram 2500 Power Wagon, because Curt hadn't "approved" it yet, but it went on very easy. They included longer bolts that were needed due to my built in winch and the feeder wires were a great help. I lost a little approach clearance, but it is worth it. etrailer was great during the order process.
This hitch is perfect. It's great quality and it bolted up easily. Took me just over 1 hour to install.
The hitch has done exactly what I had bought it for: to hold an adjustable, vertical T-bar at the front of my truck for supporting long cargo like canoes, extension ladders. As the need arises I'm sure it will work fine as a hitch for backing wagons into sheds, etc. But the need hasn't presented itself yet.
The only unusual trait I've seen is that the hitch doesn't set perfectly level, in the same plane with the truck. The mounting holes, both in the truck frame and the hitch, left no room for adjusting, but the hitch works as it is and I'm satisfied.
Pretty easy to install with the right tools. Not really noticable after it is installed. You do have to loosen the bumper, but you don't have to remove it. I bought it for a bicycle rack, works perfectly.
Good solid hitch. Took about an hour with help of my son. The drivers side on 2016 Ram Diesel was pretty easy but the passagers side was a bit challenging, because the two bolts that needed to be pushed in were being restricted on the other side but we got it done.
Ship time was super fast. Product is very heavy duty and the powder coat was perfect. All the hardware is included plus some cool wire to help fish a bolt through a tight spot. Directions were 95% useful and I also found a video by the manufacturer showing how to install it. Could not be more happy.
works grate useing for ebikes not to hard to put on looks grate
Installation was a little rough but now that its on, it is perfect! Some guys have posted that they installed it by themselves and much respect to them. I needed two guys, a floor jack, a bottle jack (to spread the ends apart an extra 1/8 inch), a pry bar, a hammer, and a bigger hammer. The most important tool of all though is the etrailer installation video. the written instructions are not good and they only make sense after watching the video.
First, the Etrailer experience was excellant! Easy to order, no shipping fees and fast delvery. Great job Etrailer.
Secondly, the hitch from Curt is a heavy duty and functional hitch.
Thirdly, the instructions provided by Curt are pictured backwards in the instruction sheets, and the professional mechanic took 1 1/2 hrs to install, and called Curt tech support( 1-800-798-0813 on 2-5-13, having to ask about the backwards pictures in the instructions and was told by the person from Curt--yep you are right, they are backwards!
Rating--Etrailer=excellant,
Curt rating = Good( because of the instructions issue and it costing me more for the install. Should have been a 1/2hr. install from a professional, as per the instructions, and it was not!
If the instructions were correct, maybe a 45 minute to 1 hour install.
Very sturdy, well made hitch. Easy to install and included all needed hardware. The instructions could be a bit more clear, the pictures miss some details. Such as the carriage bolt retainers need to be installed that the shorter ends back up to each other or else they will overlap and not allow the fasteners to be flush. Overall, I would purchase again and recommend this product.
Excellent product. was shipped timely and while easy to install either have a other person on hand or use a jack to hold this thing up. For my truck you have to angelic back and then up to align everything. Also you are unbolting the front bumper so there will be some wiggling etc. A second person def helps!
Fast delivery. Fits like a glove on my 2012 Ram 2500 4x4. Installed by myself, took about an hour and half using two jack stands. Hardest part was getting the hole centered in the air dam. Only concern was whether I could get the bumper back to factory location as mine dropped appox 1/4". Couldn't get it back but took measurements and it was still level. Looks great!!
I was a little surprised with the snow plow. I thought it was going to be hydraulic/electric. It does okay, going on flat and slight declines. Inclines not so good. I also. Bought a rear trailer hitch. Very pleased with it.
Quick delivery and great product! Holds both our EBikes securely as we travel the country!
I put this on a 2014 Ram 2500 Crew Cab. I use it in conjunction with the Thule Hitching Post Pro - Folding Tilting 4 Bike Rack w Anti-Sway - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches (TH934XTR) to take our bikes along when pulling our camper. It works well and sits out far enough to clear the front bumper. I considered the Draw Tite (65063), but I'm glad I didn't go that way as the bikes would have sat much too high and would have blocked my field of view. The bikes do bounce some, which made me nervous initially, but the hitch and the bike rack have held up well after one year.
awesome hitch. very well made. went on the nose of my '12 power wagon.
We used the front hitch to handle an ebike rack. The hitch worked great, as we have been full-time RVing for the past 10 months and hauling the ebikes from Washington state to Key West. Would recommend the front hitch.
I installed the hitch on my 2018 fwd ram today. The fit and finish on it was beyond my expectations. The directions provided with the hitch were minimal but accurate. Etrailer provided a video of the installation that was very helpful to let me know what to expect. Curt did a great job engendering the hitch with every detail addressed down to the wires needed to pull the bolts through a blind hole and torque specs . The only minor disappointment was the hitch was not secured in the box for shipping. The packaging was first class as far as size and structural integrity but the contents were not secured, and beat its way though the box. I would always recommend Etrailer. Great customer service pricing and exceptional website!!!
Rock solid and a must for off road and camping.
I had some trouble with mounting ( I’m not very mechanically inclined ) but I did it and would recommend to any one. I got the hitch for under the bumper a must for not getting in the way of trans cooler. 2018 Ram 2500 Cummings turbo diesel
The hitch fit perfectly on my 2017 Ram Power wagon. The longer bolts included were definitely needed for the factory installed winch. I gave it 4 stars only because of the packaging not the hitch. This is the 2nd hitch I've ordered for a 2nd truck. The first one arrived a little bent and both arrived with torn boxes, dents, and scratched paint. The packaging needs to be upgraded to handle the weight. Also, one of the first items on the instructions is to remove the nuts that secure the bumper bolts, the top ones will be reinstalled...... I didn't loosen or remove these and everything assembled just fine.

It’s working as intended. I did install a extension tube so the bike rack could fold up.
