Stencils & Stripes or Phoenix Graphix might be able to make something close. Hazard tape probably wouldn't last through the weather. :)

That is another nice Sno-Fiter, looks like it has a Dana 60 front axle.

Was there more than one heavy duty axle available? We had a 1975 W200 Sno-Fiter that was purchased new and it had a 4500lb. Dana 60. The Dana 44 was rated at 3500lb, was the Dana 70 rated higher than 4500lb.

it was only available until 1974, and had closed knuckles and drum brakes. easy way to tell is the tie-rod was on the back side of the axle, where the dana 60 has the tie rod on the front side of the axle, open knuckles and disc brakes...the dana 70 was available until the end of the part time divorced t-case era...

There is a 1980 4500# frt ax "SNO COMMANDER" in our town. I sold a 4500 ax new in 78 it was yellow. The 4500 # ax also had a bigger plow. I'd have to get off my duff to look it up so I'm not going to do it now.
So, figure til @ LEAST 80 MAYBE LONGER BUT that's the end of the PW anyway.

AS an import matter of fact the plow trucks were "sno fighters" until about 78 when they had to change the do to trademark laws. Sno fiter just had the sound, it roled off your tongue.

Hey that's an ADV Sport not many Fiters were hi line trim
