I dont think my nighthawks made it more then 3-4 storms before they started falling apart. I have had them on for just about 2 winters now. The covers in the back are a pain but other than that we love them. And on top of it I beat the hell out of my plows, so they...

I'm not sure if your asking me? That's the same question I'm asking.

Bad news Mr. Hydroseed. I checked on the one in Brentwood, it is not for sale. They did actually have another one for sale but it was sold already. I just assumed because I saw it in their lot that it was the same one they were selling.

Don't know the answer to your question, but drive into the plow, put the pins in and then jack it up. The should have been another pin that came with your blade and there should still be a hole in the new plows to transport it.

Nighthawks yes they are expensive at $450.00 total I wont waste another dime on the nighthawks. They are built worse then the original 810 lights. Meyer night saber 2's...

You won't find step by step directions in your manual, or PDF, other than perhaps referencing inspection for wear, for any of what we are telling you. You have to inspect and repair your plow for slop and wear in all mechanical connections. Plowing is brutal, and pins wear, bushings wear, etc. There is alot of leverage on your draw latch pins, they carry the weight and transfer a horizontal force (your lift cylinder) to a vertical lifting...

Here is a pic of a latch side plate. You need to look in your plow manual for more detail. These are easy to change in 20 minutes or less.
