| SnowPlow on the LC
Since its snow outside and i dont always have the strength to plow the yard so i can drive around i thought why not make a plow So i did. Isnt complete yet since i still need to make the thing that makes the plow raise when i go into reverse ( yeah i know i could use a servo as a winch to pull it up but want the 3rd chan for other things) . Gonna make small skii looking devices on the backside of the plow so it also floats better. Some screws are to long still but will be fixxed later along other stuff. Anyways here are some pics. Here is a video of the plow in action |

That's too cool. but your video makes it look more like a snow leveler than a snow plow. |

Yeah i know but thx anyways. It does plow the snow and since i have it at an angle to the car it plows the snow to the side of the car . Deicided to add a winch to the truck so i have winch when i get stuck and when i wanna plow the snow... :P

Cant remember where i bougth the light since its a long time ago i bought them. But i can find out for u. I think they are RAM lights or smth like that. Today i added a winch temporary to the truck to try out the plow better. Works like a charm. Updates to come soon

Now i added a winch to the car so i can raise/lower the plow. The winch is an old servo i modifyed. It will be moved to a place under the body later and will also change the wire to another one i have at home thats better. HERE is the vid of the plow/winch |

Changed the location of the winch to a better place. Also changed the position where the winchcable was connected to the plow. Added some weights to the plow for even better plowing. Will be changing the servo to a stronger one for the winch later and will also make a scale hook. |
