Daniels, Snowman, Artic all make pull plows. This goes on the back end of the truck.
Look at my post on the daniels as well as I think in the Artic form on the artic back plow. Look int he Fisher form on adding a baddrga edge on your blade a few folks have BD edges on there plows.
Welcome to the site you will find a ton of usefull info.

I want to thank you both, I looked at the set up on the site of R.C. Welding, as well as the fisher set up that dave told me about. I do weld and have a welder, the set up on the fisher look's better and simple to fab. I think I'll give it A try If I can find time If not I'll do it during the summer. Again thank's for your help.

Just be aware that people have said it makes more noise going forward and you can possibly get hooked on stuff or get stuck stacking.
If you can weld id say build a back plow in the summer but chances are you can buy it made already for cheaper. If you can get artic plows up there look at the plow partner. A little over $3000 cdn for a 7' and a few more canuck bucks for the 7'6"

That depends on what brand you are looking for. You can get a Daniels and or a Snowman. Daniels is cheaper and if you talk to John aka garadgekeeper from he form here I beleive he is a daniels distributer and can quote you a price.
Going from least to most expensive in order.
Artic Daniels Snowman
Check the for sale forum there was a nice looking one for sale it was a Daniels and just your size.

I have a 8' Arctic on my 2500 dodge. It was a great purchase at the time 4 years ago. If you are doing a lot of Residential or Condos It is a must. This season my work for the truck has changed tremendously we are doing much more commerical and therefore the truck is mostly going forward. I have even been pondering to sell it. It has been used once this season.
The Arctic is the most reasonable. The snowman is way over priced unless you are planning on running a tailgate spreader also. They have a model that works with a spreader. Otherwise I would go with the Arctic. The entire unit is self contained with electric hydralics. You just have to wire up the electrical and it slides right into the trailer hitch. it is really easy. I had a pic put I can't find it. Here is the sight http://www.arcticsnowplows.com/Tplow.htm
All and all as I said earlier if you do a lot of Res or Condo's you will make up the $2000 for the cost of the blade real fast and it should last you a long time.

Wow that is a pretty good price on that snowman. Honestly I haven't been pricing them out since I purchased mine 4 years ago.

Here is the one I had installed, cost me $200-$275 (can't remember). I wouldn't think of backdragging without one.
