I'm interested in this too since I'm considering it for the upcoming winter here. I can assure you that whatever it'll cost down in the lower 48 will be a couple grand more up here.

I put a plow on last year and I love it! Sure beats shoveling. It's great for driveways and small lots
Look up Fisher, the Home Steader...I payed a little over 3k installed.

and it's real easy to put on and take off

Just to let you know....this won't fix Rubicons

I assume you mean this won't fit Rubicons? I'm guessing due to the e-disco.

Hey Guy......I've got a full sized plow but use it on my F-250. If you want one for the JK you might want to consider one of the Lexan plows. It's a steel frame with clear Lexan type plexiglass. I've heard they work good and are much lighter. I've plowed snow for years and years....remember, a big heavy plow can really tear up a front end if you use it a lot. And if we get a lot of snow, you'll be using it alot. JMO...

I found this place that makes a mount kit for the Rubi.

I hope to have one by the time the snow flies. Once in a while I need a plow.

Good lookin' out Dave. I got a bid out on a house here and if goes through I have alley access to the garage but I'm betting Anchorage isn't going to plow the alley. Was thinking if I could get something for the Jeep but it might be just as cost effective to pick up a gently used atv and throw a plow on it.
