Detail K2 Plow Length

The Detail K2 snowplow conveniently slides into your vehicle's front-mounted trailer hitch for fast, simple mounting. Easily raise and lower the plow from the comfort of your cab with the remote-controlled electric winch. The pivoting blade makes this plow ideal for rocky or uneven surfaces because it can adjust to the terrain.


Simple, Hitch-Mounted Installation

This hitch-mounted snowplow simply slides into your vehicle's front trailer hitch receiver, making it a breeze to install. A plow that attaches to custom-fit brackets ties you down to just 1 vehicle. But this hitch-mounted plow can be used on most trucks or SUVs with a 2" x 2" front-mounted hitch. As a result, this plow can be easily switched between multiple vehicles. And because it offers a nearly universal fit, you won't have to buy a new plow when you replace your old vehicle.


Detail K2 Hitch Mount

To install the snowplow, just slide the shank of the plow assembly into your 2" trailer hitch receiver (sold separately). Then use a pin and clip or a hitch lock (sold separately) to secure the plow in the receiver.


Detail K2 Caster Wheel

The snowplow comes with flip-down caster wheels that make the installation process even easier on you. Simply flip the wheels into position and you will be able to roll the plow into position for mounting or storage. The height of the wheels can also be adjusted to match the height of your vehicle.


How to Plow

Detail K2 Adjustable Plow Position

Once the plow is mounted on your vehicle, lower the blade and set it to the desired angle. To set the angle, exit the vehicle and manually position the plow straight ahead, to the left, or to the right. Angling the blade allows you to push snow off to the side where you want it without having to change the angle of your entire vehicle. This is especially useful on a driveway or a private roadway where piling the snow straight ahead would create a barrier.


Detail K2 Wireless Remote 2.4Ghz

The plow comes with a wireless remote that allows you to stay warm and out of the elements while still effectively controlling the plow. The remote operates on a 2.4 GHz frequency, allowing it to quickly send signals to the winch without experiencing delays. And because it's wireless, you won't have to run wires through your dash. Nor will you have to leave your window cracked open in the middle of a snow storm just so that you can run a wired remote into your cab. You will be glad to have it on those cold winter days.


To begin plowing, just drive forward. When backing up to take another pass, be sure to lift the plow with the remote, then lower it again before moving forward. When approaching a large pile of snow, be sure to decrease your speed. Slamming into a pile of snow can void the warranty on the snowplow.


When you are finished, put your vehicle in park and lower the plow. Remove the plow from your vehicle after every use.


Easy Lifting with Electric Winch

Detail K2 Electric Winch

The electric winch on this plow allows you to easily lift and lower the blade using the wireless remote control. If you prefer, you can also install the included in-cab toggle switch to control the plow. The winch uses a durable strap, which is much quieter than a chain, to raise and lower the plow.


Detail K2 Features

Detail K2 Skid Shoes

The snowplow features skid shoes that allow you to adjust the height of your plow. This allows you to efficiently plow over surfaces that are uneven, such as gravel roads.


Detail K2 Blade Stiffener

Blade stiffeners, or blade support brackets, reinforce the connection between the plow and your vehicle. They add 2 additional points of contact with your hitch on either side of the plow's T-frame. This prevents stress on the frame and on your vehicle, while also strengthening the performance of the plow.


Detail K2 Trip Springs

Shock-absorbing springs allow the plow to dip forward in the event that you hit an obstruction. This flexibility protects you and your vehicle from impacts.

2003 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Decent plow for the price.

I installed
this DK2 Avalanche on a 2003 GMC Yukon 1500 with a Curt front receiver hitch 31302. If you have a side mount battery, you may need battery bolt extenders (Battery Doctor #30400) to make life easier. That said, the ring terminal connectors on the winch control box will be too small. Get ones that will fit the 3/8 inch stud and 12-10 AWG wire to replace the stock ones.

Manufacturer instructions are not very helpful, but Graz's Garage has a great install video on YouTube. He installed his on a 2020 Chevy Colorado Z71. You can always count on a gearhead from Detroit. eTrailer is awesome at responding to concerns, too, and I'm glad I bought this product from them.

Fits perfect and works just as I needed it to. I use it for my SnowSport plow set-up on a 2022 Gladiator Sport Max Tow. I’ve been using front receivers for this same plow for the last 24 years. It’s been used on 5 different trucks and this front receiver mount plow is the BEST.

*** When installing on a Gladiator(possibly the Wrangler as well), the front plastic trim below the bumper needs to be cut for receiver clearance. I wanted a tight and “factory looking” install, so I took my time with a vibrating cutter and very sharp utility knife. After trying to put it back in place, the hole is not just square, it’s shaped more like. “T”. I suggest you make small adjustments/cuts as you go forward. It may take several times fitting and cutting to get it right and tight, but in the end it does look like it came that way from JEEP. On the Max Tow package, there is also a metal skid plate that does not get reinstalled. Unfortunately that piece is where the back of the plastic fascia mounts. I ended up securing it with some long heavy-duty zip-ties and it’s worked well for a year now. Just an FYI for those installing the same receiver on their same vehicle.

Product shipped and received on time. I'm very happy with the packaging. Hardware was included with instructions to install the hitches I purchased.



by: Steve Miller01/13/2021

My plow was delivered quickly. It took a bit longer to assemble than I thought it would, but it seems pretty heavy duty and looks and works great for my 600' long driveway. It's much better and quicker than plowing with my 4 wheeler and warmer too.

Installed real easy. Cuttingbthe plastic rock guard was the hardest part.

Opened the box and instructions were bad, OK you added the video the video when is OK. The parts seen of matching OK (not 100% verifying the list of parts and qualities). Shipping way odd and for a e-shipping no thing over a week, then boom you are shipping and here (odd). It is raining now - - so no installing a hitch in the driveway today...

The hitch worked OK, even if the instructions were not so good. My hitch for the home snow plow worked OK for the winter.

I recommend taking a look at the video ins tall that we have on a 2008 Jeep JL wrange to get an idea if how it installs.


by: Will 11/12/2022

Plow seems to be of good quality, wont know till I actually use it, how good it is. Seems sturdy enough to do the job, assembly was very straight forward.
My only complaint is etrailer left me dangling for a month with no updates on my order status, even after chatting with one of their customer service people.
I ended up contacting DK2 to get a ship date.



by: Charles08/16/2020

All was great. Good quality product. Install instructions for cutting the front pan were incorrect. The hitch design appears to have changed from the instructions provided. A much different cut-out was required making many installs and removals. The 3 X 5" cut-out in the instructions is incorrect.

Great, but installation was a bit more challenging then identified

Easy install. Works well



by: Larry 02/28/2020

Excellent. The receiver is of great quality and fitment was perfect. The installation video was a very nice resource allowing installation preparation and because of this I completed the receiver install in a little less than 30 minutes. This is the third Curt receiver I have purchased from etrailer and each time I have had the same exceptional experience with the product and etrailer.

Very easy install. Videos were great help. I like the idea of fish springs, I didn't need them, but tried it out, works great. Quality unit, made in USA.
Shipping very quick, follow up emails. Great outfit to deal with. I'll be contacting soon about purchasing a snowplow with them.



by: Peter 10/25/2021

Easy install. I have my winch attached to it and it works great. Much cheaper than getting a new bumper with integral winch.

Haven't had to use it yet but arrived when expected and easy to assemble and looks very easy to use. Would definitely recommend buying from etrailer.com

Not hard to install at all, the hard part was getting the plastic clamps back into the air dam. LOL



by: David05/08/2019
2018JeepJL Wrangler Unlimited

This was one of the easiest installs / modifications ever. The install was pretty loose and forgiving when put into place but it tightened up nicely. I was a little worried about cutting the front fascia after seeing a couple of reviews where others has omitted it, but that too was actually really easy to do with a sharp razor knife. Everything was completed in just 45 minutes during my lunch hour in the parking lot at work!



by: Michael 08/14/2023

Quick delivery. Perfect fit. Easy install. Thanks.



by: Michael 04/14/2021

i received exactly what i ordered and actually a day earlier than expected. This was my first order with etrailer and will 100% order from them again.
Thank you for your excellent service!



by: Phillip 06/03/2020

A little fiddly to install for one person, when I added a helper everything went smoothly.

Also, if you're going to put the lower plastic tray back on the car, you'll find that the tray will need to be test fitted a few times to get the fitment of the push rivets correct. The slot you'll end up cutting isn't going to be a rectangle but more of a "T" slot. This is to account for the stiffing flange of the hitch.

Overall, a very stout and well built product.



by: Salty Girl06/28/2021

Excellent purchase, easy to install and great quality. We added an extension bracket and a 6-rod rack + cooler bumper mount - it's a game changer!



by: 03/05/2021

Easy to install, built well. You will have to cut the plastic shield under the Jeep.

  • Comparing the Detail K2 Avalanche and Detail K2 Rampage II Snowplows for a Dodge Dakota
  • For a 2000-2004 Dodge Dakota 4x4, I recommend the Detail K2 Avalanche Snowplow part # K2AVAL8422 with the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 31080 over the Detail K2 Rampage II Snowplow with the Custom Mounting Brackets for Detail K2 Snowplows part # K284134 for two reasons. The first reason is that the Detail K2 Avalanche has a has a much higher winch capacity of 3,000 lbs than the Detail K2 Rampage II which is only rated at 1,500 lbs.

  • How Tight Should Blade Stiffeners Be on Detail K2 Snowplow for 2" Hitches
  • I spoke to Detail K2 about the blade stiffeners on the Detail K2 Snowplow for 2" Hitches part # K2AVAL8422 and they informed me that they don't need to have a lot of pressure applied, they should simply be snugged up and then turned an additional rotation or so for support.

  • Will Detail K2 Snowplow for 2 Hitches Fit Lifted Truck
  • All of the snowplows from Detail K2, including the part #K2AVAL8422 you are looking at, require that the height of the front hitch mount receiver be 13" - 18" from the ground to the bottom of the receiver opening. As long as the front hitch on your K1500 meets that criteria you're good to go!

  • Recommended Snowplow and Front-Mounted Hitch for 1994 Ford Ranger
  • For your 1994 Ford Ranger I recommend the Detail K2 Avalanche Snowplow # K2AVAL8422 which fits in the Curt Front-Mounted Hitch # C31063 (please keep in mind this hitch will not fit Ranger's with a front cross-member or 2WD models built in Canada). The K2 Avalanche # K2AVAL8422 has a blade which can adjust to be angled to the left or right as well as straight ahead and gets raised or lowered with an electric winch that is operated via remote control so you do not have to leave the cab

  • Correct Front Mounted Receiver for 2005 Chevy Silverado
  • The # K2AVAL8422 K2 plow attaches to the vehicle using a standard front mounted hitch. The hitch you need will depend on whether your Silverado is a 1500 or a 1500 HD model. The easy way to differentiate between the two is the hubs. The 1500 has 6 bolt hubs while the 1500HD has 8 bolt hubs. If you have the 1500 model, I'd recommend the Curt # 31302. If you have the 1500HD model, use the Curt # 31108. I've linked to installation videos for both hitches mentioned above.

  • What is the Receiver Height Requirement for a Detail K2 Snow Plow
  • I spoke with my contact at Detail K2 who said that the height of the front hitch receiver on your 2005 Jeep Wrangler needs to be within the range of 13" - 18" which is measured to the bottom of the receiver opening. This is the case for all of their plows, including the Avalanche # K2AVAL8422 that you referenced.

  • Does Blade Stiffener Have to be Connected for Safe Usage of Detail K2 Hitch Mount Snowplow
  • Good question! The blade stiffeners that come with the Detail K2 Snowplow # K2AVAL8422 don't necessarily have to be used. I reached out to my contact at Detail K2 who said that the only time that those stiffeners really need to be used is if you will be pushing a lot of heavy snow. Otherwise you'll be just fine using it on your 2003 GMC Yukon XL without those connected. The reason why you're having trouble is because those will connect if the receiver is the same height as the crosstube,

  • How to Add Lights to a Detail K2 Snowplow for 2" Hitches

The light kit comes with lights, brackets, and pigtails.

  • Can K2 Detail Avalanche K2AVAL8422 Be Swapped Between 2002 Toyota Tundra and Ford F-350

To install the # K2AVAL8422 on your 2002 Toyota Tundra, you'll need a front mount hitch like # 31180. You will be able to used the plow on both trucks, but unless you want to move all the wiring each time, you'll need an additional winch control box # K2WCB and wireless remote # EWX004-CAD for the second vehicle.

  • Differences Between Detail K2 and Detail K2 Elite Snow Plows For a 2003 Toyota Tacoma
  • Yes, the difference between the Detail K2 Snowplow # K2AVAL8422 and Detail K2 Elite Snowplow # K2AVAL8422ELT is the Elite has the electric actuator over the winch. The Elite also uses a chain connection to the blade while the basic K2 has a strap that is more likely to become damaged. The electric actuator is superior to the winch. It operates faster, smoother and it has a built in clutch that will protect against damage that a winch would cause. The actuator won't be able to lift the blade

  • Detail K2 Snowplow for 2" Hitches K2AVAL8422. Will This Work On A Lifted Truck?
  • In order to use the Detail K2 Snowplow # K2AVAL8422, your front hitch must be between 13"-18" from the ground, when measured from the bottom of the receiver opening to the ground. We installed the Curt front hitch # C31018 on a 2012 F250 where everything was stock, and the front hitch was at about 15-1/2". So with a 6" lift and big tires, this snow plow would likely not be effective. You can always measure your hitch to be sure, but your lifted truck will likely not be able to be used

  • Snow Plow and Mount Recommendation for 1994 Jeep Wrangler 4WD
  • I'd recommend going with a plow mount for your vehicle over a hitch style mount. On some hitch mount setups we've seen the hitch not be as durable as the mounts that mount to the frame and are specifically for plows so that's what I feel is the better solution. The Detail K2 Storm Plow part # K2AVAL8422 that you referenced is a great choice, and then for mounts custom fit to your 1994 Jeep Wrangler we have the part # K284115 which would work great.
