    Well I bought a 2001 hijet deckvan. It had a blackline plow on it when i got it. The truck cam lifted with 23 inch tires on it. Brock the plow life mech the second day pushing snow. Brock a second one on the next snowfall. Blackline tec talked to me and he said the reciever was too high. Should only be 8 inces off the ground not 13. Also the plow had an 1 1/4 inch attachement. So there was an adapter to 2 inch. He sent me a four inch drop, my cost and than a new life cylinder and an upright that had a 2 inch mount. That helped get the plow to the ground. So it is pushing snow ahead and not driving the plow under the truck.
    Here is the problem. The idiots that mad the mount designed one that flexes way to much. Also the plow seams to sway alot when plowing. Anyone have a better mount and expierce wihtthese plows. Do they hold up?
    thnaks for am new mini truck owner.
