The Ford Ranger and Toyota Hilux are two pickup models that are made for towing. Come the colder months, their impressive pulling power makes several other upgrades possible, with snow plough and spreader packages often featuring in the list of top winter upgrades for the Ranger or Hilux.
As a world market leader, Meyer is the go-to brand for your 4×4 or pickup’s snow ploughing needs. Their innovative tailgate spreader is another seasonal upgrade that has saved many drivers lots of time and effort in the harshest conditions, with snow, slush or ice no match for this incredible add-on.
In this blog post, we shine the spotlight on the Meyer range we’re proud to stock here at 4×4 Works, reveal exactly why the products within are the best in the business, and share our top tips for choosing the best package for your needs and budget.
Do put performance first
When choosing the best snow plough and spreader package for your Ranger or Hilux, it pays to put performance first.
As the top choice for users serving commercial, industrial and retail environments, as well as those maintaining private estates, Meyer snow ploughs and spreaders deliver great results, with optimal clearing performance and manoeuvrability all a part of the offering.
Don’t choose cheap imitations
As the original and best, an investment in a Meyer snow plough or spreader is one well worth making. They are rugged, robust and reliable to ensure the quality you deserve when working in challenging environmental conditions, which is more than can be said for their budget rivals!
With a Meyer snow plough and spreader package, you can reap the rewards of owning and using this premium winter upgrade for years to come. In comparison, budget brands only last a season or two.
Do take control when clearing
Both the Meyer Drive Pro Snow Plough and Meyer Blaster Tailgate Salt Spreader feature in-cab controls making clearing and spreading even easier. Here Single Girl’s DIY explains how salt spreaders work and why a remote control feature is your ticket to an improved experience:
“Once you have filled the hopper with rock salt, you will want to adjust the auger to the correct height for optimum distribution. The auger pulls the grit from the hopper through the discharge chute and onto a spinner, which spreads out the rock salt evenly. If you are operating a salt spreader from the cab of a truck, you will sometimes have a remote control that allows you to turn on and off the spreader, so you do not waste any rock salt.”
Don’t dread attachment or removal
Lightweight for less vehicle wear, economical, long lasting, and easy to use, Meyer ploughs and spreaders are just as easy to attach and detach.
The Drive Pro features Meyer’s signature Quick-Link and Single-Pin Release systems, with attachment and removal able to be completed in under a minute! The integrated caster wheels also make the plough simple to adjust and transport once clearing is done and dusted.
