a buddy of mine has an F250 that he made a removable mount for.. it looks like two round tow hitches flush in his front bumper, ill have to find out how he managed

that is an interesting point wormgod.. i didnt think about the extra stress.. you think there will be more beyond just working the engine hard to push the snow? i wouldnt guess it would be any worse than towing/ carrying a heavy load.. and well the look i know wont be great, but the ultimate goal would be something that can be put on/removed in about 30 minutes
