This Generation III Classic Personal snowplow is the most recent innovation from SnowBear. This plow conveniently slides into your vehicle's front-mounted trailer hitch (sold separately) for easy, convenient mounting. It has a remote-controlled electric winch that will let you raise and lower the plow without leaving the warmth and comfort of your cab. The pivoting blade makes this plow ideal for rocky or uneven surfaces because it can adjust to the terrain. Angled trip springs are also built in to help keep the blade from catching and tripping.
Simple, Hitch-Mounted Installation
This hitch-mounted snowplow simply slides into your vehicle's front trailer hitch receiver, making it a breeze to install. Unlike a plow that attaches to custom-fit brackets, which ties you down to just 1 vehicle, 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 Personal snowplow, just slide the shank of the plow assembly into your 2" trailer hitch receiver . Then use a pin and clip or a hitch lock (sold separately) to secure the plow in the receiver.
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, or 22 degrees 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 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 or the in-cab toggle switch, 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 Personal snowplow.
When you are finished, put your vehicle in park and lower the plow. Remove the plow from your vehicle after every use.
Easy Lifting with Electric Winch
The electric winch on this plow allows you to easily lift and lower the blade using a toggle switch that mounts in your cab. You can also use the included wireless remote control. The winch uses a durable nylon strap, which is much quieter than a chain, to raise and lower the plow.
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.

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.
Better than a snowblower!! Made very well, had it put together and mounted in a couple hours. Used it for two small snowfalls and it worked as expected. Great customer service from etrailer!
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.
I bought a Snow bear personal plow and a separate Curt receiver hitch for the front of my 2012 F250.. after speaking with Erica W. several times due to blunders on my part, all was perfect. Quick delivery, price was right, items are super rugged. The stock photos don't do justice. My plow came in at 350 pounds without the receiver hitch. It's not a cheap toy plow. Get one, they'll fit nearly anything! Thanks Erica!!
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!!
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

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