Hitches

Hitches for Light Duty Trucks

Super Duty Hitch

The Super Duty Hitch series hitch, intended for chassis of greater than 17,500lbs GVWR is a class 8 design, scaled down in weight and dimensions to fit a Ford 550 or Dodge 5500 series chassis. The 4-point pin on the design allows off-season removal in minutes. The mast is designed utilizing heavy duty angle, plate and tube construction for extreme durability. The mount kit includes a 3/4” plate attachment to the chassis frame for heavy duty installations. The plow pick arm does not interfere with driver visibility of the road. The mast includes integral cross tubes for wing plow installation. This hitch includes a nitrided cylinder rod for increased corrosion resistance.

International CV / Chevy

Hitches for Medium Duty Trucks

Low Mount Medium

Everest low-mount hitches are designed for maximum durability and visibility, while allowing the hood of the chassis to tilt forwards over the hitch for daily chassis service. Available with quick disconnect plow mounts for fast changes from plowing to hauling. Includes nitrided cylinder rod for increased corrosion resistance.

Hitches for Heavy Duty Trucks

Low Mount

Everest low-mount hitches are designed for maximum durability and visibility, while allowing the hood of the chassis to tilt forwards over the hitch for daily chassis service. Available with quick disconnect plow mounts for fast changes from plowing to hauling. Includes a nitrided cylinder rod for increased corrosion resistance.

Power Tilt

Hydraulic tilt front hitches quickly clear the way to tilt the chassis hood for daily chassis maintenance checks in two designs.

The “PT” hitch utilizes a rock-solid bumper plate to cheek plate mount for extreme durability and long-life, transferring the plow forces directly onto the chassis frame. The mast is heavy duty angle construction.

The “Tilt” hitch utilizes a mast design, incorporating tube construction in the mast with wider side plates on the chassis base, to mount directly to the truck frame extension transferring the plow forces directly onto the chassis frame. Capable of full double wing operation with no cheek plates necessary.

Both types are compatible with front engine PTO / pump assemblies, single or dual front mount wing plow systems and reversible or one-way plows.

  • I am the Highway Superintendent for Ghent, NY and the President of the Highway Superintendents Association for Columbia County. Heavy equipment is my life. I have been involved with heavy equipment for 28 years from operating to turning wrenches to building custom trucks to now operating a Highway Department, with over 80 pieces of equipment that I use to maintain 142 lane miles of highway.

  • In my line of work you need equipment you can count on, you just can’t afford downtime. High quality, efficient, well constructed, user friendly, durable, versatile and most of all reliable. You might think I am talking all about the product but I am not. While the products are all of the above I am also referring to the Company as well. In order to have a good product you must be willing to listen to the customer who uses that product. I use Everest Products for all of these reasons.

  • I was honored to be invited to visit Everest factory in Ayer’s Cliff, Canada in the fall of 2019. Not to just tour the factory but to sit with the entire Sales Department, Vice President and their Engineering team. It’s not every day someone is asked to sit down with the head people of any company to discuss how they can make their products better for the end user. It was a very informational meeting for all involved, with many new suggestions and ideas that would be beneficial to both the end user and the company.

  • These bodies are much more versatile than the hopper/dump body system we had in the past. We can use these trucks for other operations during the winter season with minimal effort and changeover.
