snow plow for excursion

Ford Excursion Snow Plows

Years and years ago a true modern genius figured out that their snow shovel would work a lot better if it were mounted onto the front of an SUV. Thus, the snow plow was born and it has been effective ever since in turning regular Ford Excursions into snow eating monsters. At Snow Plows Direct, we keep stocked in only the most trusted snow plow brands, and we offer them to you at unbeatable prices and with unrivaled customer service.

Can I Plow with a Ford Excursion?

This winter you may be wondering if mounting a plow on a Ford Excursion is a possibility. Absolutely! The Ford Excursion is a popular vehicle perfectly capable of carrying a plow and removing large amounts of snow. We've collected a few frequently asked questions regarding the Ford Excursion and plowing:

• Q: Which size of plow works best with a Ford Excursion?
• A: The only thing you really need to worry about is the width of your plow. It needs to be wider than your Excursion’s track width ( 68.4" ) and lucky for you, every plow we carry is at least 80” so you’re good to go.
• Q: How do Excursions handle the addition of a snow plow?
• A: Like they were born to plow. With a towing capacity of up to 11,000 lbs. on some models, this is a Ford with some serious strength under the hood. A V8 good for 255 horsepower will keep you, your plow, and any mounds of snow you might come across, moving forward hard.
• Q: How do I install the plow on my vehicle?
• A: Depending on the style of plow you choose, you may attach it directly to the existing holes on the frame of your Ford with custom brackets – or more commonly, your plow will attach to a front mounting hitch to permit quick and easy removal and reinstallation.

Anybody Plowing with a Ford Excursion?

I also plow with an 03 excursion 7.3 limited. I love it. I fold the seats down and load salt into the second row. Just tarp the interior and go. It has been great plowing with it.. I have an 8ft ultra mount western pro here is the pictures http://www.plowsite.com/showthread.php?t=112588  

hey man! u got the part # for the excursion mount? i wanna put my western on it.  

same mount as a 99-07 super duty  

hey guys newbie here. looking for a setup on my 03 excursion v10 prob a western ultramount. can anyone suggest a good snow plow/severe duty fan clutch? is it needed? anyone have this one made by four seasons? Vehicle: 2003 Ford Excursion Fan Clutch Engine Cooling Fan Clutch -- Reverse Rotation Severe Duty Thermal Fan Clutch  

also, will i need new springs all around because the stock ex springs are too soft?  

Reviving and old thread. I am putting a plow on my 02 X with the 7.3. I have owned it since new. Putting on a Boss V weighing in @ 977# Prior to which I am upgrading the springs to the Ford F250/350 V code Springs rated @ 2630 ea. (I would be doing this upgrade regardless) Any experience would be appreciated. (Even if you don't have your X any longer.) Thanks a lot. Keith  

After 11 years of having an 8'6" HD Fisher on my Ex I am going to upgrade to X-codes this summer. Some good info below! http://www.sdtrucksprings.com/99-04...eaves-x-code?gclid=CLGg_fOdm8UCFdgJgQodZgsAyw http://www.supermotors.net/clubs/fordexcursions/registry/9/54681-2

Choosing the Right Snow Plow

While most snow plows feature a universal fitment, selecting a model and configuration that’s compatible with your vehicle is essential. Narrowing down your selection isn’t difficult, but it’s important to follow a few basic steps.

Step 1: Match the Plow to Your Vehicle (Size, Power, Style)

Snow plows come in several shapes, sizes, and mounting styles; before making your selection, gauge which plows are compatible with your vehicle. We recommend selecting a snow plow that’s scaled to your vehicle’s size and weight. For example, a small vehicle, like a Jeep Wrangler, should be paired with a narrower, lighter-weight plow, whereas a heavy-duty pickup, like an HD ¾-ton, should be paired with a wider, heavier-duty snow plow.

Step 2: Understanding Different Snow Plow Shapes

Aside from the overall dimensions of a snow plow, these handy tools come in several different configurations and are used for different purposes. Some of the most popular plow styles include: 

Straight Plows: Plows with straight blades (moldboards) are ideal for clearing large, open spaces.

V-Plows: Highly versatile plows with configurable moldboards for V, straight, or scoop shapes. This versatility enables plow operators to clear snow in a variety of settings.

Box/Push Plows : A plow with a capped-off moldboard, ideal for clearing large areas. Box/push plows are most commonly used on vehicles like skid steers or compact tractors.

Step 3: Understanding Moldboard Variations

A snow plow's moldboard, also known as the blade, greatly impacts the functionality of the plow. As such, most companies offer multiple moldboard options, including variations in: 

Material: Moldboards come in several materials offering different price points and strengths. Polyethylene moldboards, for example, are heavier and pricier than their steel counterparts. They’re highly resistant to abuse and corrosion. On the other hand, steel moldboards are tried-and-true; they also cost and weigh less than their polyethylene counterparts but are susceptible to corrosion.

Tripping Action: Tripping action is an excellent feature in a snow plow, especially for novice operators. Full-trip plows feature moldboards that flip forward upon contact with stationary objects hidden beneath the snow. This feature limits damage to the plow, hidden object, vehicle, or driver.

Specs: Moldboards come in several shapes and sizes. When selecting your plow, consider the dimensions of the moldboard, including the highest attack angle, and curvature. As a rule of thumb, taller moldboards have a higher attack angle, and the more curved the blade, the better it cleans the surface.

Step 4: Consider Mount and Operating Systems

Most snow plows feature adjustability that enables you to raise, lower, and pivot the blade from inside your vehicle’s cab. These plows feature handheld controllers located within reach of the driver; as a result, it’s vital to ensure these controls are comfortable and intuitive. 

Additionally, you’ll have to consider mounting options. While some plows require vehicle-specific mounts, others mount directly into front hitch receivers. However, you must verify that your front hitch can support the weight of whichever plow you select!

Snow Plow Types

Aside from the shape of a snow plow’s moldboard, there are several other variations to consider when selecting a snow plow, namely the snow plow type. The most popular snow plow types include: 

Manually Operated: A manual snow plow attaches to your vehicle using either vehicle-specific brackets or a front-mounted hitch receiver. These plows are raised, lowered, and angled manually, by hand. While less expensive than electric plows, you’ll need to make each adjustment from outside of your vehicle. 

Electric : Alternatively, electric snow plows feature integrated electric motors that offer full adjustment and operation from inside the cab! In extreme weather conditions, operating the plow without leaving the comfort of your heated cab is a massive upgrade. 

Hydraulic: Hydraulic plows are similar to electric plows; however, they utilize hydraulic pressure to lift and angle the plow. Most utilize a hydraulic pump and in-cab electric controllers for fine control, allowing you to plow quickly and accurately.
