The only difference between the Detail K2 Summit II Snowplow # K2SUMM8826 and the Detail K2 Storm II Snowplow # K2STOR8422 is the actual size of the snowplow. The Summit II is 88" Wide x 26" Tall while the Storm II is 84" Wide x 22" Tall.

If the vehicle you plan on using the plow with is the 1989 Jeep YJ you input for your vehicle info then the mounting brackets you need for either of the plows mentioned above come in the Kit # K284115. Let me know if you have a different vehicle and I can help you find the correct mounting brackets in that case.

There is a drop extension available for a snow plow on your 1989 Jeep YJ, but you'll have to go with a SnowBear plow instead of a Detail K2 like you initially asked about. For SnowBear plow equivalents to what was mentioned above we have the following: 88" Wide x 26" Tall Electric Actuator - # SB324-116 Hydraulic Actuator - # SB324-217 84" Wide x 22" Tall Electric Actuator - # SB324-167 Hydraulic Actuator - # SB324-204 Once you decide on the dimensions and actuator style you'd like for the snow plow you'll need the mounting bracket kit # SB397-024 as well as the 3" Drop Extension Kit # SB324-128.

We have run into this quite a few times in the past, and the best option will be replacing the Lance 7-pin connector with a standard 7-way blade connector like the #PK12706. This will give you a standard 7-way connector to plug into the factory 7-way…

Normally, the tongue weight should be somewhere between 10 and 15 percent of the loaded trailer weight. For your trailer it would mean somewhere between 780 and 1200-lbs. The #C17501 system is designed for tongue weight between 1,000 and 1,500-lbs so…
