Snow Bear BB50 Snow Plows Frequently Asked Questions
- Do I Need A Four-Wheel Drive Truck? No, many SnowBear owners with two-wheel drive vehicles are very happy with their results. The plow clears the snow away before it gets to the tires. The more traction that your vehicle has, the more versatile the plow will be and the more snow it will be able to push. This is why four-wheel drive vehicles are usually preferred. SnowBear owners with two-wheel drive vehicles will find that adding weight in their vehicle helps them push through more snow. Less traction means that you need to plow more often and that you should not let the snow accumulate too much, especially if it is wet and heavy.
- Can I Install The Mount Myself? The SnowBear Personal Snowplow Mounting Harness is designed to be bolted on to the frame of the vehicle. No welding or drilling is required. The installation of the mounting harness will not be difficult for a person who has a set of tools and is comfortable using them to perform mechanical repairs on vehicles and houses. Vehicle dimensions are not always consistent, particularly if it has been involved in an accident. Where possible we have used slotted holes to allow for this, however, sometimes a bit of prying or twisting will be required. If the customer is uncomfortable, we recommend that the mount be installed by the licensed or certified mechanic who normally looks after the vehicle.
- How Long Does It Take to Install The Mounting Harness? Installation times vary among vehciles. A newer full-sized GM truck takes about 30 minutes. Other vehicles which need a more complicated mount may require two or three hours. We normally allow two to three hours for an inexperienced installer and a typical mount.
- What If My Truck Is Not Listed On The Application Guide? First call RealTruck Customer Service (877-216-5446) to see if the mount that you require is already in production. If it is not you may order the SnowBear Professional Mount Kit. With this you will be required to fabricate some brackets and you should be willing to drill holes in your vehicle frame. The mount is only recommended for the advanced Do-It-Yourselfer.
- What If I Sell My Truck Next Year? You may still use your plow but you will need to order a new mount by calling our customer service department at 800-337-2327. If you own more than one truck, it is a good idea to order a mount for each vehicle.
- Does The Plow Angle? Yes, a spring loaded release allows you to manually angle the blade. To reduce cost and complexity there are no hydraulic control systems on the plow for remote angling.How Does The Remote Control Work?The remote control is used to raise and lower the plow from within the vehicle. The 12ft. control can be temporarily mounted on your side window or permanently installed under the dash.
- How much dose the plow weight? The steel blade, tubular steel frame hardware and the mounting brackets weight a total of 225lbs.

Posted By:Richard J F. (Sullivan, ME) on 01/2009
excellent quality for the price the only negative so far is the battery connections are not designed well for side terminal batteries, i had to put on different connectors
have only plowed twice so far, i have an 1/8 mile driveway and it worked rather well, it just takes a little longer than a commericial plow as you have to get out to make the angle adjustment
perfect plow for anyone who needs to plow their own driveway and possibly a couple neighbors

Plow works well. Had to get used to manual angling after owning a hydraulic one but wasn't a big deal. Love the easy mounting feature!

I am pleased with the item and the price was reasonably good. However, I never received the free ringer gloves that were suppose to come with the plow. I would appreciate receiving them.

Posted By:Markus B. (Caledonia, WI) on 03/2008
This plow was easy to install, and simple to use. The electrical connectors and mounts are not very obtrusive when the plow is removed. I had reservations about having to manualy turn the plow, but it is rather easy and not as anoying as I had expected. There are only 2 major complaint that I have. One is that the motor (winch) could have been a little stronger and possibly covered to remain protected from the elements. It seems slightly undersized and is already, after only one season, in need of an occasional "tap" to free the brushes. The second complaint is nit-picky, but the assembly for supporting the plow when it is not on the vehicle is not well designed. It is of less quality than the rest of the plow assembly, and even how it mounts is not well thought out. All that said, I would still definatly purchase another plow if needed from Snowbear. The price is right, and it handled even the heaviest of Wisconsin snow with ease this last season.
