Rigged up the winch cable with a pulley to take some of the stress off the winch and hopefully perseve the cable. Saw this on a commander forum but figured I would share here. Bought the hook and pulley from tractor supply for $15, used part of of an old strap and it worked perfectly. Can am sells something that I believe is similar for $50. Slows the plow up and down to half the speed but sill pretty quick.

thanks Rudy!

Would you mind passing along which H11 bulbs you used? There are so many on amazon it would be good to know I'm ordering ones that def fit. Thanks !

I picked up my new HD8 on Saturday, one of the accessories I added was the can am super duty plow. When I was researching to buy I couldn’t find much on the super duty plow, esp for the defender so I figured I would post about it in case someone is looking. It is by far the easiest plow to connect I have ever owned including multiple ATV plow brands and Meyers and boss truck plows. You pull up to it, hook the winch and pull up and it automatically hooks on. To disconnect you pull a lever, unhook the winch and back away. That simple. Takes seconds! It hooks on the front of the machine so it raises nice and high. We got 4” of heavy, slushy snow last night and it worked great. I was able to back drag a ton without it riding up because it’s very heavy. Just looking at it it seems really well built. It’s def a little more money then after market set ups but I am very happy with the purchase.

Nice!

thanks for the reply’s guys. Looking froward to picking up the machine next Saturday.

Wow $750 for 5 years is a definite no brainer. I though $500 for 18 months was steep. I personally think can-am should do better then 6 months for what they charge. If you are going to charge top of the line prices stand behind it for longer then 6 months. Is the 5 year warranty through can am or is it an aftermarket company? Thanks for your reply

Have pulled the trigger on a 2018 HD8 DPS at my local dealer. It came with a solid rebate but I have the option to forgo $500 of the rebate and take an additional 18 month warranty for a total of 2 years. What has everyone seen in the first 2 years with their defenders? Anyone had major warranty issues? Any suggestions would be welcomed. Would love to spend that $500 on accessories but don’t want to be left high and dry with a major defect in a year.

Thanks for sharing looks good. Considering for my new HD8. How is the air flow on hot days?

How will this promount plow system compare with the superduty systems? I just agree to purchase a 2018 left mover HD8 and wa showing to have the superduty plow installed. From what I understood the superduty plow connects in the front and quickly detaches. Does anyone think I should wait on the promount? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
