Not a Blizzard but a factory Kubota plow on mine...Works well but too heavy..Curious to see the size of the one you're installing...Waiting for the pictures

Is it the 680LT? I have seen pictures of this plow on a Kubota RTV900... wonder what the RTV side mount costs... I already have the plow on a jeep wrangler, and would like to be able to switch it to the RTV.

We are running a Blizzard on our Kubota RTV. We cut it down to 5' for sidewalks. Worked well as long as there was somehwere to go with the snow.

Thanks for the info on the RTV900 mount... Believe me, I'm not trying to shoot the messenger (I know you don't establish the price), but that is just way too much money for what the mount is. I have always wondered why truck side mounts were so high... I understand R&D costs, etc. but the amount of steel, fabrication, and painting involved should result in a cost of $200 to $300 dollars IMHO. It's almost like plow manufacturers want to discourage reuse of an old plow on a new vehicle... I'm sure it results in more new sales to them... oh well.

I am not expert, but this is the way to move snow. I have a front plow ordered for my new Polaris Ranger. I have plowed with a lot of different equipment, but it is really tough to beat one of these UTV's when plowing. They are fast and can handle a large enough blade to make the job go by really fast. Much better than any tractor I have ever used, including the big ones.
