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.

2004 Chevrolet Silverado
I had been waiting to find this Curt hitch on sale for a while.
First off I get to keep the hooks that came with my 2004 Silverado Crew cab 2500HD 4x4.
Then I removed two existing bolts and loosened a third on each hook.
Using a floor jack lifted the hitch into place and threaded in the new bolts through the frame and into the hooks.
The biggest problem I had was being able to reach the bolts into the side of the frame and hooks w/out removing the air dam.
Looks GREAT!!
I know some reviews have mentioned a reduction in ground clearance but my truck is not lifted and the clearance is nearly the same as the transmission skid plate installed by the factory.
I sometimes need to get low hard to see trailers into tight spaces and I’m also looking to pick up a winch. Looking forward to many years of hard work.
by: Dale Miles01/25/2014
Unbelievable how clean the install is for this product!! I was certain I would have to do some cutting or drilling, however not a single cut or new hole required. The product fit like it was straight from the factory ... even with the existing front Grille Guard that I have on my truck!!
I also appreciate the FAST shipping and customer service, as tracking info was emailed after the product shipped without requesting this info and the product arrived within the same week.
I've already recommended etrailer to other landscapers on lawnsite.com, as we're always looking for front-mount solutions for spreaders and other landscape equipment.

I have to say that I absolutely LOVE this product!! It works perfect for mounting my walk-behind fertilizer spreader to the front of my truck while having the larger PermaGreen spreader on the back of my truck. Having this front-mounted hitch has allowed me to carry both of my spreaders and not sprain my back while wrestling the smaller spreader out of the bed of my truck as I had before.

2006 Chevrolet Silverado
This was the easiest installation of the 10 or more hitches that I have installed. Four bolts out and replaced with four suppler bolts and washer. No modification of the air dam needed.
I needed some washers (supplied) between the frame and the receiver as spacers. I recommended that you figure out how many you need (1 or 2 per side), then lower it down and tape them in place to hold them in place and push the bolts through the tape after you lift it back in place.
Cover the ground with a rug or cardboard to keep from scratching the receiver when it’s on the ground before you lift it into place.

Still good. No corrosion or other issues.
by: Terry11/04/2021
This was possibly the easiest hitch install I've ever done! All the holes lined up, the onle thing was two of the bolts they supplied are not long enough,I had the longer bolts in stock and finished. I haul a truck camper so needed the extra cargo space, looks like it'll work!
there was 4 bolts in the kit to replace the bolts in the tow hooks, the 2 that went into the side where the ones that where too short, they where 1 3/4" I replaced them with 2 1/4" bolts. There was a gap between the hitch mount and the frame approximately 1/16" that a washer filled that gap. I'm a retired shop owner that did auto repair and fabrication so it was an easy install.

I will have our customer service team reach out to you. The hitch manufacturer prefers to have the hardware that comes with the hitch be used for warranty purposes.
by: Pat C.07/04/2020
I purchased the front hitch for my truck. With a fifth wheel I can’t carry bikes anywhere but the front. I really don’t trust the strength of the rear bumper on these RV’s. Hitch went on easy in the garage with no alterations needed. The bikes sit a bit high but that’s not the hitch problem....
I will also use it for other functions around the truck...push/re-locate utility trailer in tight spaces, use for a rack to haul stuff like firewood etc...when back hitch is unavailable.
by: David07/27/2022
Easy install; unobtrusive, but hitch receiver is far enough forward I can install the bike rack without needing an extension.
by: Wayne10/06/2022
Great product easy installation reinforces your front end will definitely buy again for my next truck

2003 GMCSierra
This is the second hitch I've ordered for my truck. This hitch was very easy to install on the front of my GMC Sierra and is almost unnoticeable, which I like. I use it to transport a small Honda Trail 90 motorcycle, and it's 9000lb rating is well above what I am asking it to do. It arrived via UPS several days after ordering, was in good shape, and only took ten minutes to install with only two different size socket wrenches. Highly recommend this unit for the front of any truck.

2004 GMC Sierra 3500
The 31108 Front Mount Hitch Receiver was a perfect match for my 2004 GMC Sierra 3500. I seemed well built and the instructions were clear and easy to understand. I installed the hitch in under 45 minutes and that includes prep time. No special tools required. See photo attached.
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!
by: Dahr05/21/2024
This fit my 2006 Silverdo 3500 easily - and it has been a great addition to be able to carry my motorcycle in front of the pickup while camping.
by: Chris12/22/2023
I waited 12 days for a shipment from amazon and the hitch was lost. They want to send me another hitch with a due date of January 6, 2024! You guys are the best! 2 day’s service was outstanding!!!
by: Bill Schmall 06/26/2014
I would add to your instruction, if you have the factory hooks, remove the four bolts as stated and give to customer, " loosen the other two bolts on the outside of frame" this gives you a little wiggle room to start the new bolts. BUT great product and great people.

by: Doug05/16/2020
This hitch mounted to tow hooks just as described, even with existing brush guard. Needed it to haul a generator the only issue was the brush guard stuck out too far so I had to buy a 12" extender. Now every thing works as planned. Shipping was fast and customer service was great.
Thank You

Very good quality, Heavy Duty hitch that looks easy to install.
Ian W was very helpful with my order and customer service has been great.
This hitch fits the Chevy Silverado 2500 and 3500 I believe. My Chevy is a 2006 model.
I highly recommend Curt hitches and ETRAILER.COM.

The front hitch was easy to install and has been very useful. I just wished the 2006 Chevy Silverado had more clearance as far as height goes on the front end.Mine is a 4x4 but it could sure use a lift kit. The hitch is great though!

15 minute, piece of cake single-handed install. Instructions say cutting fascia optional on 2500. Not even close to needing to. Truck is 2005 Silverado 2500HD. Receiver sits up there nice and tight, so doesn't change ground clearances.

Hitch is in excellent condition even though it tried to get out of the box.

Repetitively easy to Mount and was still able to keep the factory toe hooks installed
by: Peter12/16/2022
I did not get a chance to put it on right away. Now that I have put the front hitch on , it looks great. It was harder getting the original old bolts off than it was putting on the hitch. The hitch went on quickly and now I can use it to put a plow on for these snowy Ohio winters.
by: Andy G01/13/2015
I received the product (hitch) today and haven't had the opportunity to put it on my truck. I hope to do that this week or next. I can write an additional review at that time. Wayne H. did a great job clarifying which hitch would be best for my needs. I'll summit a picture after it is installed.

I love the product. It has come in lhandy many times when moving my trailer and boats. I would definitely purchase another if I ever purchase another truck in the future. I would recommend this product to anyone.
by: Bob 01/30/2023
Easy install, the bolts that went into the recovery hooks were about 1/2” short and couldn’t get the threads to bite
by: Scott03/12/2023
I installed the hitch with no problems, looks great. The item was poorly packed for shipping and I consider myself lucky to see it arrive.

view full answer... - Difference Between 2004 Chevy Silverado 2500 Curt and Draw-Tite Front Hitches
- The only real difference between the Curt # 31108 and Draw-Tite # 65028 front hitches for your 2004 Chevy Silverado 2500 is that we've found the Curt hitches to traditionally have a little thicker of a powder coat which means they are a little better protected against the elements as well as scratches. Because of this I recommend the Curt over the Draw-Tite.
Aside from that these hitches will install the exact same way and have the same weight capacities so it's just two different manufacturers

- The Curt # 31108 and Draw-Tite # 65028 are very similar and will even install the same on your 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 2500. They also have the same weight capacity ratings of 500lbs tongue weight, 5,000lbs trailer weight and 9,000LB line pull. The only difference worth noting is the Curt is assembled in the USA. With that said I feel like the Curt is going to have the better quality.

- On the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver, # 31108, there is minor fascia trim required when installing on 2003 GMC 2500 Yukon XL. As far as the fitment on your vehicle with the skid plates istalled, I checked with the supplier (Curt), they said they have not heard of any problems of them fitting with factory skid plates, but if the skid plates were a dealer installed item, which is an aftermarket item, they would not know because they do not test their fitments against aftermarket
view full answer... - Is Fascia Trimming Required for Front Mount Hitch Installation on the 2005 Chevy 3500
- The directions state that Fascia trimming is optional on 2500 H.D./ 3500 models. This means that when the front mount hitch, item # 31108, is installed the bottom of the receiver tube will contact the air dam under the front bumper of your 2005 Chevrolet 3500 pickup. This contact over time will wear on the air dam, so you may decide to trim it a bit before installation of the hitch. Otherwise the hitch install is a direct bolt on installation with no drilling required.
