4 wheeler plows

Who has one, what brand, what add on's?. I have a King Quad 700 so I will be getting a 60 inch unit. My buddy has had his cycle country for two years and has had no issues and plows two driveways and to his fish house.

I have a camo King Quad 750 with a 54" plow, different bumpers, 2" lift, 5000lbs venom winch, a snorkle kit, pitbull tires and aluminum wheels but I plow with the stock wheels and tires. I ride it all aroud the city and plow all day long. Has made its fare share of money. Everything but the plow and pitbulls I got on ebay.

Cycle country here for 6 years and no problems. I run mine up and down with a winch. It's the 60" model.

I have a 48 inch Eagle. I have had it for 5 years with no isues that I dident cause. I am a little hard on it though. If ya get one I HIGHLY recoment the new Moose plows that mount to the nose of the ATV and dont have the push tubes that go under the belly of the machine. Mine had the push tubes underneath and I was always getting stuck on them. This past fall I cut them off and had a freind rebuild it simaler to what Moose has done and mounted it to the nose. Now the plow lifts 16" off the ground and the lowest part is the belly of the ATV, nothing hangs down bellow the machine to drag in teh snow and get ya stuck. I also had a electric lift buit as well. I now have power up and power down. The new Moose plows that mount to the nose litteraly take 5-10 seconds to atatch and take off. A lot of people are suprised at what a ATV will push.

This was Xmas day after our 24 inch snow. I plowed for 4 hours that day.

The snow is 3-4 feet deep here.


I keep the plow in the back garage and I had to plow threw this to get out to plow the main driveway. I made it threw with out scooping or getting stuck. I had to ram it 15-20 times but I made it.

That Moose design looks nice. I built my own mount using an old plow off our 70 something wheel horse that bolts up underneath the King. And I know exactly what you guys's complaints are, its always dragging or gettin stuck. if i wasn't moving to virginia here in the next month possibly, i'd invest in one of those.

I have a Cycle Country V plow on my 96 Polaris Sportsman 500. I haven't had any problems with it. My driveway is about 800' and all uphill from the garage. Keith
