A new Kind of Snowplow

What happens here

Further internal improvements include an upgraded hydraulic pump and motor, doubling their lifespan from approximately 300 to 600 hours, significantly enhancing reliability. Additionally, the entire rear plow unit, including its mounting frame, can be easily removed from the truck bed. This is achieved by lifting the unit and allowing it to unhook from a specialized rail system. Once unhooked, a single pin is released, enabling the entire assembly to be quickly lifted out, freeing up the truck bed for other uses without complex disconnections.

Goal: The rear plow system now features an upgraded pump and motor for increased longevity and an even easier system for removing the entire plow unit from the truck, allowing for quick cargo bed access.

>> Never going. So you guys own it. It's your baby at this point. Tell me about what you did in here to to make improvement. >> So inside the box, we still have our battery back here, but now we have an upgraded pump and motor. So originally we had a motor that was lasting about 300 hours. Now we have about 600 horsepower uh motor. >> Okay. >> I need to cut you off. That's good information. But >> have you solved the problem where people are not able to tow with this unit? >> Is it easier to take the entire unit out? >> So if you look back here, >> okay, >> before we had that block, >> the 2in block that went in the receiver and we had to fight to get this pin out. >> Yeah. And your dad was torqued when I was fighting with it one time in a snowstorm because I was doing things bass backwards cuz we're tired and in a rush and it was easy to get confused. >> Yes. >> So you eliminated >> on this back side. It's a hook. It will sit down there on the hook and it will line it up there. So as soon as you get it on the hook, >> it will lay into your rails. And this pin, you just pull it right out right now. >> Show me. Just show me the pin you're talking about. Don't >> this pin right here. >> Okay. So that pin right there. >> Yep. It could be in the air plow down. That pin will always be loose >> and then you just pull out your fork. So you get it on this hook >> and it lays down. >> Okay. >> It's a lot faster. >> So it's faster and easier to eliminate the entire system that way. Or you can just take the plow off, the back plow off with that couple snaps. >> Is that everything in the back? >> Yes. >> Let's go up front cuz I want to see the new VP power that you've got going on. I've never seen.
