    Found this picture some time ago. I have never seen one of the V plows in person. I'm not sure why but, I have to have one. If anyone comes across such a piece, let me know. Looking for the real thing. Correct. Not something cobbled up. Any other information or literature would also be welcome.

    A fleet of at least 13 CJ3a's! Pretty cool photo. Any clue where that photo was taken? I've never seen a Jeep with a V plow.

    That is such a cool pic. But I can’t imagine the application? Campus walkways?

    V-plows are great for busting drifts. Angle plows will push your vehicle sideways off the road.

    V plows glide throw the snow like a hot knife through butter.

    I have an original Blackhawk V Plow for a CJ2A. Its definitely an incredible plow. I have yet to use it in the snow but judging on the size of it I am thinking you need a good head start before you drop the plow.

    I could if I can figure out how to post pictures on here with my phone. Is there a way I can pull them right from my photo album on my smartphone without having to resize them?

    Focker That's a terrible idea...What time? Staff Member

    Some people crop or text themselves the pic to get the file size smaller. You can also lower the picture quality resulting in a possible smaller file size.

    Look in the Help section for tips.

    Dave, I know someone who would likely get you a good deal on this one. Some adapters may need fabricated. And pick up only-------

    The plow looks like it weighs more than the Jeep. Seriously cool!

    Kind of reminds me of a nephew who got a good deal on a backhoe for his tractor- yeah it was a little bit big for his machine but the price was right.

    Once he got it mounted he could pick up the front end of the tractor by pulling up on the plow blade with one hand :D

    Yeah, does the lift actually lift the plow or does it let you change the rear tires without a jack?

    Mhovey.......thank you for the pictures. I love that thing. Look at the graceful lines of that plow. I want one even more now. Please keep me in mind if you ever decide to part with it.

    John........I won't buy the plow unless the whole truck comes with it. I work out shipping with Nate and the U Haul company. :D Thanks for posting that picture. I remember seeing it here before and drooling over it. What a tank.
