For trucks the poly plows are usually heavier than steel plows due to more steel reinforcements for the poly. The major advantage for the poly is the snow doesn't stick to it like the steel
I was surprised it wasn’t lighter, also. It’s been a good plow for us, it’s tough and moves a lot of snow. The new push tube is a big improvement, looks much stronger than the original. I recommend their pulley fairlead, or one like it, if you didn’t already get it.
Poly blades are 25% heavier not lighter. As far as your steel cable I’d suggest a synthetic toe and different fairlead with a rubber strap stop. Saved out atv plow from bending or breaking things.
I'll look into that, thank you. I revised it for this year, but didn't use it enough to know whether it should stay that way. We're very happy with the plow itself, but the interface with our winch isn't the best. I appreciate the comments!

That’s good to know, and makes sense.
I just talked to a guy at KFI and I thought the poly was lighter but it is not. I was surprised. I ordered one yestarday for my utv Viking 700.

I can see where the poly would be helpful on a lighter weight vehicle and just as you mentioned moving it around. Great review ponycar
