[justa hick]

does anybody use wing plows on pick up's i saw a add for one and was wondering if anybody uses them and how they work

They were used on 1 tons a lot more than they are today. However I have never sean a wing on a pick up. The wings are out there, only they won't perform like the ones the DOT has.

To have a wing that works like the DOT's ya need a truck like the DOT's. Be ready to drop 9K for the plow and wing, with out a mounting frame.

There only real use is in road plowing, they won't help plowing lots, only get in the way.

The wings i saw were for 1/2 3/4 and mini trucks. the wings were only 4' i think they were made out west somwhere . was thinkin the price wasnt too bad on them somewhere around 2500 or 3000. i'm still lookin for the flyer they sent me.
