Today I shimmed the mounts for the MTD 190-833 dozer blade, to make it touch the ground when lowered. I used longer grade 8 bolts and a pair of stainless steel washers plus three grade 8 washers to shim the mount at the top.
I then installed the MTD 190-874 wheel weights and plowed the driveway of the 4″ of snow we received last night. It worked very well, and at this point I’m glad I got the dozer blade instead of the much more expensive snowthrower. I spent a lot less money, and the dozer blade will be useful for more than just snow.
