    I'm thinking about a snow plow for my '75 CJ5. Any suggestions?

    There's a ba-jillion old cj's out there with plows on em. Look in the classifieds. Many times you can find a beat old plow jeep for less than $1000. I'm going to be fabricating a custom plow frame for mine in the coming 2 months, so I'll pos up pics here when I do.

    a 6.5 foot blade with power angling is ideal. the first plow on my jeep was a 6 foot manual angle. with the blade angled all the way, one side would run the tires through unplowed snow. the 6.5 foot blade fixed this. anything bigger would put too much strain on the jeep's frame. and the power angling was a huge upgrade - no explanation needed there. i have a few 4 way valve bodies, plow mounts, and hy-lo jeep plow pumps. pm me if interested.
