Specifically, the Western 76718 Receiver serves as the passenger-side anchoring point for your UltraMount snowplow. Western manufactures this receiver pocket kit to establish a secure link between the vehicle mount and the plow. Furthermore, this genuine component replaces older part numbers such as 67859 and 42497.
Consequently, it provides the most updated alignment for newer Series 2 plows while remaining backward compatible. Additionally, the unit features durable steel construction to withstand heavy vibration and road salt. Therefore, the Western 76718 Receiver ensures your plow remains correctly seated during commercial snow removal.
Moreover, this kit includes the required receiver pin and hairpin cotter to simplify field installation. Specifically, the Western 76718 Receiver slides directly into the truck-side mount frame for rapid equipment attachment. Overall, most UltraMount setups require this part but excludes HTS models.
