    Thinking about having a Fisher Snow Plow installed on my 2011 DCB TRD Auto Trans, 4x4Tacoma . The local dealer has a set up in stock, Will only use for my own light work. Should the truck with stock front suspension be ok??

    I think you should be ok but check out wheeler off-road for timbres they just showed them to me and they could help stabilize the extra weight, I'm sure upgrading suspension would help but it's not required

    Thanks for the reply, The place that installs them told me that most of the wt comes off when you unhook there is only bracket on the truck

    While some snow plows are harder on the truck than others (weight, size, and usage time being the problems) no snow plow is good for them. The OME suspensions are not designed for snow plows so they will add to quicker failures.

    The plow my dad has on his truck is like that. 2 minute removal and the brackets that remain are minimal. He made a frame from a furniture dolly so he can wheel the plow and frame in place, attach and detach it quickly and easily. As mentioned above, plowing does add more stress to the front end components and no plow is 'good' for the truck but, if you're careful, don't go barreling into banks, use an appropriate sized plow for the truck and don't push more than the truck should, the truck will hold up just fine.
