If you encounter an asterisk* in this section, it denotes that the detail is irrelevant, you must click on the asterisk to advance to the next field. See highlight below.
Details such as cab size, bed size, wheel base, FGAWR (front gross axle weight-rating), and engine type are needed to determine the weight rating and distribution of the vehicle. The headlight type will determine whether or not you'll need a headlight adapter. FGAWR can be found on a sticker in the driver's side door jamb, near the tire pressure rating.

- 4. Select a Product - Here you'll see a description of each recommended product, including an image, length, product family, and material. Select a product to view a list of its standard features, and choose "Select Options" to move forward.
Note*
If a product isn't recommended, it's possible that the vehicle manufacturer does not recommend a snowplow on the vehicle. The most common factor that prohibits a plow application is the front end weight rating (FGAWR) of the vehicle. We also cannot legally recommend plowing with two-wheel-drive trucks.
