Western 1379 – UltraMount / UltraMount 2 Plow Mount Kit – Ford OBS 1992-1997 (Includes Bolt Kit)

The genuine Western 1379 Plow Mount Kit serves as the permanent vehicle-side structural push plate assembly engineered to anchor a Western snowplow directly to the truck’s chassis. Custom-designed for 1992-1997 Ford F-250, F-350, and F-Super Duty trucks (including 4×4 models and heavy-duty 2WD models exceeding specific GVWR thresholds), this heavy-gauge steel mount kit ensures structural integrity under intense winter clearing loads. Fleet mechanics install this authentic vehicle mount to establish a stable, reinforced subframe that safely handles the massive thrust forces generated during high-volume commercial plowing or heavy snow stacking.

This original equipment manufacturer kit features a pair of precision-welded side push plate frames fabricated from high-strength structural steel, engineered to distribute load strains evenly along the front frame rails of the Ford OBS chassis. Because it matches original factory blueprints precisely, it bolts natively into existing vehicle frame paths, maximizing strength without structural alignment errors. The complete package contains the structural driver’s side and passenger’s side frame mounts alongside a comprehensive high-strength structural bolt kit, though it requires separate procurement of the detachable receiver brackets to finalize the attachment point.

For professional contractors and vintage fleet restoration managers, utilizing an authentic factory mount preserves the truck’s frame dimensions and prevents severe chassis cracking at high-stress mounting tabs. The plates feature a factory-baked black powder coat finish that seals the underlying raw metal against moisture, concentrated road salt brine, and deep sub-zero winter temperatures. Additionally, this UltraMount framework provides back-compatibility for legacy UniMount straight blades when integrated with the official 27170 UniMount-to-UltraMount conversion assembly.
