the mount on the plow is not the same as a atv plow so I called a honda dealer near me and they said

1 push bar cycle country part number 566299

2 lift kit part number 566321

3 mount for my honda 250 part number 566368

but how do a mount this plow mount to the cycle push tube does anyone know what mount I need to put on the blade

[DirtDemon]

Some metal and a welder. IMO, the easiest way to mount the thing would be to make your own custom mount. That is how I would do it. If you don't have the recources to do it yourself, hopefully you know some one who does. It would end up being alot cheaper and easier.

i know someone but its an hour drive plus him doing the work and hopefully he doesn't rap me for the labor

[DirtDemon]

Well, I would give the guy a call, get a rough idea of how much he is going to charge, and compare it against the cost of all those parts. I would say from looking at the plow, I could probably do it for $50-$75. That is at a rate of $25 an hour. I woud just remove the long part of the mounting bracket that comes on the blade and build a bracket that bolts in it's place on the plow and bolts to your bumper mounts. The handle may need to be manipulated a bit depending on where it ends up after it is mounted.

Any idea how much it weighs? I dont see that thing pushing anything,,,Just the rear wheels spinnin.....

after u get the plow mounted...i suggest investing in some tire chains and weights cuz those rear wheels will start spinning like crazy with some heavy snow
