Most of these trucks can handle a snow plow with not only the static wt but forces from plowing too. Check your front axle load rating and scale the truck. See what you have room for.

You already mention restricting the rad and headlights. Even though you plan for winter travel, watch out in the south. You could get into warm temps there. Headlights and turn signals can't be blocked at all. Even if you drive in the daytime only. As much as you may try to stay off the road at night, it could happen in some case that you get stuck in dark, dusk or rain driving. You could add aditional lights that are clear of the scooter.

Good luck with your project!
