Rear fender ideas for new snow plow - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I need to make some kind of fenders for the rear of my new short snow plow and I am looking for ideas. (The truck is made up using a Blazer frame with a truck cab on it).

The home made wood bed has spacing between the boards so junk will be thrown up onto the cab. I will be raising the rear as it settled down more then expected. Any pics of other wood beds with home made fenders would be helpful.

TIA,

Jim

Wouldn't it be better to make the rear out of steel, I'd have thought more weight over the wheels would be a good thing for traction. A big sheet of chequer/treadplate would do it. I still find the concept of owning your own plough strange but then over here we get so little snow these days even up here in the Pennines.
