P1000 western impact snow plow

[dale5740]

I can't say anything bad about the plow really, I've had it since '09 when I bought my truck. It is what it is, the only thing thats has happened to it was the cover falling off while in use, luckily I saw it and didn't plow into a pile, mines the HTS basic plow for a 1/2 truck, it has been lost in storage for the last two seasons as I plow my crap with the pioneer now.....much more fun. The western Vee plow on the pioneer really looks pissa, unfortunatly my pockets aren't that deep.

mine aren't that deep either but I figured since I bought the best and paid the most for it Might as well finish strong and buy the best plow and maybe be able to use it to make some money. Now no snow figures

yes this plow is prob a smaller version of what is on your truck!! How do u like western so far I bought this after a lot of research showed they were the best. It was a hard decision between this one and the boss but boss didn't have auto scoop and retract mode! that was a big factor for me.

So I'm trying to decide between Western and BOSS. Never owned a plow or plowed a single flake. I've looked on the Western description of the Impact but it says nothing about an auto scoop and retract. How does that work? The Western is cheaper and lighter, though I think the plowing width is a little less.

isn't that the way it always goes, we keep getting these little 2 or 3" storms, isn't hardly worth going out to plow. I at least go clean the end of my driveway from the snow the town trucks leave me, one has to play sometimes lol.

Hey All, getting here a bit late, hopefully someone is still around, I've been looking at the Western Impact V-Plow for my Pioneer 1000-5. The local dealer is telling me that it will not fit on my machine. How did you guys get yours setup? Did you just buy the plow and rig something to work? Or did the dealer install it?

Thats not a bucket on the front, what is it? Been wanting one to go along with our trac hoe.

Not to hyjack...but,

It's just a 1.25 yd, 4 in 1 bucket. JD 210LE's uses a single cylinder to dump. Probably just the angle of the photo makes it look different. It's a 2004 4x4 and in AMAZING shape, except some dumb ass ran it with no oil and lost a rod. I got it at the Ritchie Bros. auction for $12,000, put in a JD crate long block and it been off to the races. They go for around $25k to $35k with 5k+ hours, AND >$80K NEW...

At 15,000 lbs this big boy is just what we needed around the ranch...

Must have been the angle, the clam bucket is what we'll be looking for as well

easy to install yourself!! took me and a friend 2 hours start to finish!!

it is heavy but not nearly to heavy at all but I did get the Polaris rubber spring buffers for like $25 and u can just pop them right in there with no tools at all and that made it perfect! Also i recommend those to leave in anyways!!

Can you post a link on where you bought the spring buffers? I don't think I'm going to get my new plow this year. Trying to get things bought to get the dual battery set up now. I've still got your # for tips when it comes time. I'm going to go with the fisher. That is what my local dealer stocks now. If you look... They don't offer the v-plow for the Pioneer now since they have come out with a hydraulic straight blade that is about 100lbs lighter. If those spring buffers work as well as you say... I'm still going with the V- plow next year. Thanks for your help.

Hi, I just bought and installed a western v plow on my pioneer 1000 and I would like to find out what spacers u guys used on the front end to stiffen it up. Also whenever I am moving while pushing snow and try to lift or move the blade while moving the machine acts like it goes to neutral and the oil light comes on. As soon as I stop trying to move the blade it goes back to normal. I added a second battery but didn't fix the problem. Any ideals out there. Thanks for your help

I saw that UTV plow at the dealer for $3,800 when I bought the full size MVP3 for my truck.

After I got the Western MVP3 mounted on my F250 crew cab, its now the length of a locomotive. I now want to put a small straight plow on my 700 for quick cleanups and the harder to maneuver areas of my driveway.

$3,800 for a small plow like that is just too much for me, I dont want to spend more than $1,000 for a light duty plow

Here is a picture of my BOSS V PLOW on my 700-4. Love it.

yes fully hydraulic and is actually the exact plow that would be sold by western to put on a small truck or suv with a mount made for the pioneer[/QUOTE

Hi I’m wondering if you know if your winch has to be removed in order to install a western impact on this machine?

 

[Swheels]

I have the Boss and the winch stays on

Good to know thanks. Did you add spacers to the front shocks or add anything else to compensate for the weight? I’m assuming your running a second battery?

Do you know the part number on the spacers and did you install with the plow attached? Thanks.

Hi, I just got a Boss V plow and need to beef up the front end. Where fid you get the rubber coil spring bushings? I’m having a hard time finding them. Thanks

 

[Mickey7]

I have the BOSS V plow for mine, and love it.

I just got a Boss V. Did you beef up your springs/shocks? I’m hoping to just use spring spacers/blocks but I can’t find any for my 1K.
Thanks, Mickey in WV
