Hitch-mounted residential plow has shock-absorbing springs and a steel-edge blade to easily clear driveways and parking lots. 3-Position blade pushes snow straight ahead, right, or left. Wireless remote lets you raise or lower plow from your cab.

Specs:
The Detail K2 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 electric winch. The pivoting blade makes this plow ideal for rocky or uneven surfaces because it can adjust to the terrain.
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 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 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.
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.
The plow comes with a wireless remote that allows you to stay warm and out of the elements while still effectively controlling the plow. The remote operates on a 2.4 GHz frequency, allowing it to quickly send signals to the winch without experiencing delays. And because it's wireless, you won't have to run wires through your dash. Nor will you have to leave your window cracked open in the middle of a snow storm just so that you can run a wired remote into your cab. You will be glad to have it on those cold winter days.
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.
The electric winch on this plow allows you to easily lift and lower the blade using the wireless remote control. If you prefer, you can also install the included in-cab toggle switch to control the plow. The winch uses a durable strap, which is much quieter than a chain, to raise and lower the plow.
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.
Easily attach a variety of accessories to the front of your vehicle with this fully welded, corrosion-resistant trailer hitch receiver. Perfect for winches, spare tire carriers and more.

Great easy plow to use. The hardware that came in was missing a couple nuts and bolts. Had to run to the hardware store a couple times to get the proper bolts and nuts. The plow doesn't come assembled. So expect a good evening to build this unit. First two years was great and the scraping was good. Back dragging slacks but again a lot of plows do that. So it's not terrible but does enough. Just leaves 1/4 of snow behind. But pushing snow forward works and scrapes nice on asphalt or concrete. The battery that came with the kit for the wireless controller didn't last 1 month. So be prepared to upgrade that. But it's been now on my 3rd year, one of the springs failed on it and currently searching for the replacement. The plow itself has a one year warranty so of course it's past due now. Overall it works and it's nice. Wish I had bought the power left and right but the manual lever works too. Also the side markers prematurely failed too so I had to buy meyer yellow ones from fleet farm. Cost another $xx. But I will update this as time goes.
It has been working very well as we have actually had a decent amount of snow so far this year. took a little longer than I thought it would to assemble and mount it but after it was on it works great and looks good.
The DK2 plow and hitch are awesome! As always, the communication from Etrailer from order to delivery is top-notch. Assembling the plow and mounting the hitch was easy. Took about 4 hours with me enjoying a few beers and taking my time one evening after work. Took on wiring the next day. I like a clean finish, so this part took me about 2 hours. I placed the control module on the fuse block as suggested (etrailer's videos are a BIG help). I placed the remote transmitter on the drivers side. I ran the plow lead down to the hitch from inside the vehicle. There is just enough wiring supplied and this allows me to tuck the connector inside the hitch when not in use. A hitch cover protects it from the elements. First use was 30" of snowfall! I plowed for about 3 hours straight. The engine compartment did get warm which made the control wiring warm and pliable; so the connector came out of the control module mid way through plowing. I used some dielectric grease and it stayed connected the remainder of my plowing. It takes some practice to hitch up to the plow easily. This set up took a beating first time out. Sure glad I ordered it!!
I had problems with your website but etrailer corrected my issue. I’ll look forward to ordering again.
Overall, I was satisfied. Instructions could be more complete, and it was missing a few bolts and nuts. But Looks like a solid plow for the application I need.
Works good with my snow plows.
The plow works very well. It's not real heavy duty but it has been adequate so far. It went together quite easily and is fairly light and maneuverable when I take it off for the summer. I am glad it has the extra turnbuckle braces beside the receiver to stiffen it up. I almost wish I had gotten a wider plow. When I have it set for straight forward it is good but when I have it angled it is a bit narrow for my Suburban. One minor problem I had was when I hit a hard object and the plow snapped forward and down both of the little red plastic end markers that stick up broke off. Long exposure must weaken the plastic.
I just had a chance to finally get it mounted to my truck. The fit is perfect. I have never had any issues with anything that I’ve ever gotten from etrailer.
Well worth the money! No longer having to worry about someone else coming to plow is a God send!!!
This is the second front hitch I have purchased from etrailer. As with the first, this was a well built, solid product. It fit my older 2009 Ford Super Duty perfectly. The only thing that was incorrect was in the instructions it called out the tools needed. But the actual sockets needed were larger than called for. Not a big deal, but something to correct moving forward. I mounted the hitch myself in about 45 minutes. Most of that time was getting set up and going looking for the larger sockets. I used a roll around jack, as I did with the first hitch, to lift it into place and be able to move it around. Works well. Everything was A+. Sorry I have no pictures. But it looks great.
Bolted right on our F450SD with out having to remove anything.

Great
Solid build, perfect fit, nice function ality.
This is the second "Curt" front hitch that I have purchased. I have not had the opportunity to mount it yet, but the instructions appear to be complete and easy to follow. It arrived UPS ground in about 5 days.

Installation was easy, even for 70yr old bod! Works great, bought it to mount a winch, have also used it to move trailers around the yard.
Good for the price, really needs to be able to be able to angle from the cab of the truck. (deluxe model.)
I love having this plow easy to install, easy to attach and remove on my 2 door Jeep Wrangler. I would recommend it to everyone looking for a plow.
Heavy Duty and well made. Fairly difficult install because of such tight clearances on the trucks frame members, but I installed it myself in about an hour.
Difficult to put together - manufacturing quality is terrible - holes drilled off of center, causing plenty of work-arounds. In the end, it was a small plow with a complicated and messy assembly instruction. I resold it for $100 to get rid of the eye-sore. I don't recommend this at all.
Ended up using this front receiver way more than I initially expected. Now it’s possible to one person back up my boat into garage...safely. Very easy to install and seems to be high quality. No complaints.

Still working great. Not sure if it is in the description, but this hitch fits chassis cabs trucks, e.g. my truck is a F450 Chassis Cab.
Fast delivery. Fits perfect. Great comp any.
The Curt receiver hitch is good quality but if your doing the install yourself from the driveway or garage floor, two floor jacks would be very helpful as the receiver hitch needs to be "snaked" in around the truck structure. The front receiver hitch will give us options for carrying various types of hitch attachments. Thanks e-trailer.
Works great even better than the old fisher plow even though this one swings manually, the blade goes much higher when pushing up banks of snow.
This is the 3rd hitch I have ordered from etrailer.com. First one was for my second daughter's new 2022 Honda, 2nd one was for my 2018 Subaru Forester and this one is for for my 3rd daughter's Ford F-350 Super Duty. etrailer.com has what I need, fast and easy to order, delivered to my front door and it fits every time. -Wally-
Perfect fit on our 2008 f350. Installation took less than an hour with two people. As usual good shopping experience with etrailer.

After a year the hitch has been very useful in unanticipated ways. Attaching a cargo rack nc we have a kayak rack attached to rear hitch. Hitch still looks new and no rust after first winter. Recommend product and etrailer.com.
Good hitch for the price, I use it for a front cargo carrier for surf fishing, but I'm confident I could pull stuff with it. This fits my 2008 F350. Install wasn't too bad but this thing is heavy, easier with two people.
the Curt front receiver for the 2010 F-250 is an exact fit- and it arrived in good time. I got the Curt rear receiver from etrailer a couple of years ago and it has worked well.
Now I can carry on both front and back. The video provided was a great help.

Works great. Used many times with moving trailers and a stump grinder. Much easier to line up when pushing the item in front. Also mounted carrier to mount garden sprayer and drove the fence line inside my AC truck instead of on an ATV or lawn tractor.
