This is a place up there that sells those Sno-Way (Lexan) type plows. This is the direction I would go. They are so much lighter and easier on your jeep front end, yet they have a steel frame. Check em out.

I don't know if you've plowed before, but if you get one, whatever you do......GO REAL EASY with it or it will tear your front end apart. Even with those lighter plows.

I sat in the rear passenger seat of a GOV six-pack as the driver was bragging about his new plow. He was doing 20-30 hitting banks and bad angles. I told him to watch it, and his retort; "It's cool, I drive a H3, I know what I'm doing." (I swear to you I'm not making this up) Next thing I know we're 180 degrees the wrong way looking at a smoking front end. The part in the police report when they interviewed me was classic.

le sigh.

I had a relative hit a tundra bump while plowing...after that it always looked like he was coming at me sideways. Lol- thanks for the tip.
