KFI vs Moose UTV Plows

Two Good Plows, Built Differently

We sell more KFI plows than anything else in the building, and we stock Moose right beside them — so this comparison has no favorite to protect. Both brands build the same three-piece system: a machine-specific mount, a push tube, and a blade, and both need a winch or lift you provide (our winch sizing guide covers that half). Where they differ is the details: blade sizes and styles, how the kits are priced from machine to machine, and how much piece-by-piece flexibility you get. Here is the honest breakdown.

KFI — One Ladder, Every Option a Variant

A KFI kit is built around the Pro 2.0 push tube and your choice of blade: the Pro-S steel blade in 54", 60", 66" and 72", or the Pro-Poly in 60", 66" and 72". The pricing is the cleanest in the plow business — on the volume mounts the complete-kit ladder is the same number almost everywhere: 54" $733.85 · 60" $767.85 · 66" $871.85 · 72" $910.85, with Pro-Poly at $953.85 / $1,000.85 / $1,026.85. The Ranger XP 1000 kit and the Defender kit sit exactly on that ladder. KFI's other signature is flexibility: every kit listing offers mount-only, blade-only and no-tube combinations alongside the complete kit (the Ranger's no-blade setup is $410.90), so replacing one bent piece never means buying a system. The full machine range is in our KFI plow kits by machine guide.

Moose — Color Choice, County Blade, Mount-by-Mount Pricing

A Moose kit pairs its mount with a Heavy Duty push tube and a wider menu of blade styles: straight steel blades in 55", 60", 66" and 72", in Matte Yellow or Matte Black at the same price — the color choice is a Moose signature nobody else in this price range offers — plus a 60" County blade (the tapered profile that throws snow further to the side) and poly blades in 60" and 72". Pricing varies by mount instead of following one ladder: the Ranger kit runs $764.85 (55") to $944.85 (72"), the Defender kit $781.85 to $961.85, and the Pioneer 1000 kit $834.85 to $1,014.85. Poly runs $999.85 to $1,126.85 across those same mounts. Moose also sells its RM5 mount plates as standalone listings, which suits owners building a setup around a blade they already own.

Head to Head on the Same Machine

  • Entry price: KFI, clearly — $733.85 complete at 54" against Moose's $764.85 at 55" on the Ranger, and the gap holds at 60" ($767.85 vs $809.85).
  • Smallest blade: KFI's 54" fits narrower machines and walks that Moose's 55" starting size doesn't target.
  • Blade styles: Moose — two colors of straight steel, the County profile, and poly. KFI answers with poly in three sizes (Moose offers two) and the deeper parts catalog.
  • Replacing pieces later: KFI's variant structure (mount only, blade only, tube or no tube) makes single-piece replacement a listing, not a phone call.
  • Big-machine mounts: Moose prices climb faster on some mounts (Pioneer 1000 tops the samples at $1,014.85 for a 72" steel kit against KFI's $910.85 ladder) — check your exact machine before assuming either brand is the cheaper one.

Our Verdict

Buy KFI if you want the lowest complete-kit price, the widest blade-size ladder, and the easiest path to replacement pieces — it is the default recommendation for most of the machines we fit, and the KFI plow kit collection is where to start. Buy Moose if the yellow blade is the look you want, if a County blade fits your lanes, or if your machine's Moose mount prices out better than its KFI equivalent — the Moose plow kit collection has every fitment. Either way you are getting a real mount, a real tube and a real blade from a brand we will stand behind in February. Not sure which mount fits your year and trim?
