Can I convert an older generation snow plow kit to a custom frame?
Converting any Generation 1 (grey) DK2 snow plow kit over to a custom mounting system is as easy as changing out the winch tower and T-frame (NO 17) for a mainframe and a custom mounting brackets.
The benefits of switching over to a custom mount is adding strength to your snow plow by shortening the frame by nearly 14 inches. We are happy to chat with customers further about changing their generation 1 plow over to a custom mount plow.
List of items needed:
MAIN FRAME
CUSTOM MOUNT BRACKETS
CROSS MEMBER
HANDLE*
*The existing handle can be cut down by the competent DIY&lsquoteer to work with the new frame components.

Go back and tighten left and right bracket then finally the cross member should be tightened into place.
