    Hi All,
    I have a 2014 Tacoma and just purchased a snow sport plow.
    Looking for a way to mount a winch to lift plow without any major modifications. Can anyone give me some pointers?
    Thank you

    I just drag mine into next position and push..

    Then agsin i only do my driveway then remove it..

    up and down controls without downward pressure isn't all that big a help at least for my situation...

    I have a SnowSport for my Tacoma, bought it for a low tech/low maintenance/simple way to clean up my driveway and it works well for that. No winch is really needed but you can find vids on Utoob that show winch mods done with Harbor Freight winches (some are kinda' comical...wires everywhere), or you can just buy one direct from SnowSport (nicer but expensive). They're all a little slow to operate and as mentioned you can't effectively back drag with them. Your choice, but suggest you try a winter without the winch first though. You may find the extra hassles/cost to be more than it's worth.
