plow

I have a 2001 f-250 supercab lariat. It doesn't have a plow package on it. I was wondering if I should put a snowplow on. I am just going to use it for my driveway and my parents'.

What kind of plow is it? How heavy? It shouldn't really be a problem. You CAN upgrade the springs if you want to but it is probably not necessary.

Here is a poll done on letstalksnow.com about exactly what you are talking about: http://www.letstalksnow.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=10816

Most likely it will be fine. The front spring code is on the door sticker lower right. Prob you have V springs. X's are for plowing. Plowing with a long truck is kind of a pain..
