If anyone has made a snow plough for their Jimny on the super cheap, I'd be interested how you did it, and some pics on how it fits on. Just planning ahead to make sure it never snows again. :)

Anyone had a go with some wheel barrow wheels and plywood?

Add a couple more wheels and you could have one of these...

Goat,
I was inspired by Geordi's effort (link above) during the last snow but never got round to it. I was thinking a bit of large diameter 20-25 mm thick drainpipe and some angleiron/ box section. Still on the hunt for the pipe though.

On the 9th day he swapped it for a Jimny.

I too saw Geordies plough but that looks professional and solid the sort of thing that costs a lot. Looks great though. I only need it for 800m of farm track so was thinking I might get away with something less pro. I like the idea of the drain pipe you can get some big diameter land drains but they are quite expensive as well. I need wheels on too as it's a rough track with potholes. Still think plywood and some wheel barrow wheels might be the way to go.
