That was absolutely beautiful... would love to make it up for some Canadian trails once I get some building going on with my XJ...

going to be doing a write-up soon on the plowframe/snowplow, in the near future, as of last weekend the plowframe came back off, cause we really havn't had any snow in the last 30 days.
With it removed, a trail run in the snow with a few good freinds was up next, heres a video of the comic SnowRun

I am interested in how you hooked up your plow and what plow your using I would love to put one on my XJ sooner or later.

time for update,

pics/vid of plow-frame install, guys ask me all the time- why the 2 recievers under the bumper

Myers plowframe, donner my Ole fullsize Chevy Blazzer, cut down, reworked/choped/bolted/welded to fit XJ, gone are the ugly pot lights, upgraded pump with overkill hydro/ram , as most know- theres no room under the hood to fit this badboy of a pump, so I mounted it in a seeled box to keep it out of the elements. it works, and gets the job done, and Im not freezin my butt off behind a snowblower-

now to install it, I rigged up a small hoist and a engine leveler, to balance the load, and a couple quik couplers on the wires that reach under the hood, time spent now to hookup are down to 20min tops









a short video of the install

I noticed he was the least experienced driver in your group. Maybe you need to find him a nice tube buggy. A little cold in the winter though.
