Boss Snowplow -Failure after failure in The Back Drag Pro

What happens here

The video provides visual demonstrations of other pull plows, specifically Snowdogg and Short Iron models, operating efficiently at higher speeds (10-15 mph). These plows are shown easily handling snow, demonstrating reversible wings, and highlighting their lack of shear pin issues. The reviewer contrasts this with the BOSS plow, emphasizing that the competing models do not use shear pins (or use Grade 8 bolts for greater strength) and have superior customer service for addressing any issues.

Goal: Showcase the reliability and efficiency of competing snowplow brands

Tools and materials

  • Dodge Ram 2500 Pickup Truck Dodge — Operating the competing snowplows
  • Grade 8 Bolts N/A — Mentioned as an alternative to Grade 2 shear pins for increased strength in competing plows
  • Short Iron Back Drag Plow Short Iron — Demonstrating efficient snow plowing
  • Snowdogg VxF Snowplow Snowdogg — Demonstrating efficient snow plowing
  • Snow N/A — The material being plowed

What they say

what in the world is going on so I got out and looked and here it was just hanging still mounted on that side completely tore through on this side Mike's toward the frame one time but he's ripped through the shear pins and gone through 88 of them this season alone and we're gonna show you exactly what we're talking about right here one of the big problems Mike is facing is this plow just won't hold snow it just hits to the point where the wings grab too much right here it's enough failsafe to prevent failure on the on the wing so this bolt here is great too half inch by four and a half inch grade two bolt that will break if you get excessive load on the wing one of my frustrations with this thing when you're trying to hold the wings forward add a say a 45 degree angle carry the most amount of snow and if you're up against even just the slightest bit of a snowbank that wing will catch and drift and if you don't catch it right away and stop it will break that sure pin so you either have to you have to go really slow first of all you're with the back plow your forward speed is going to be much slower than with just the front plow and I'm talking five miles an hour or less if you're running a drag Pro well I say that because I was plowing 10 to 15 miles an hour the other night with my with my snow power I was flying I mean I was sliding that rear-end around lifting it up throwing the snow like literally we will fly through all the snow hammer it down that's when I first started I'm used to with the just the front plow my typical plowing speed is about 10 miles an hour I feel that's a comfortable safe speed yeah if you happen to bump a curb or something you're not gonna put yourself through the windshield I tried to plow at 10 miles an hour with with the drag Pro initially and I was breaking sure pins constantly to the point where I'm buying them 20 at a time and I've I just went in I told you I replace my supply yesterday I literally have bought out my hardware store I'm half by four and a half inch grade two shear pins uh that's gonna be probably over a hundred so into I don't recommend any any higher grade that you wouldn't want to interesting okay when I was on the phone with boss tech service over the course of a couple different problems that I had he asked me did you attempt it to put in a grade five volt I said I haven't I thought about it but I haven't done it he said well that's good because we had somebody do that they literally tore the wing right…
