48" Blade (79350) & skid shoe mounts?

Recommended Posts

jeff w

Looking to find (mounts) for skid shoes on my blade 79350. There is like a key hole area for mounting on the blade. Any info would be appreciated. Really like this blade on my C-81 w/chains. Manual down pressure is very functional as well. Thank you in advance

Do you have a picture.  I have never seen a "skid shoe" on a blade.

The newer blades have them, and I made a set that would set a bit higher,Jeff. Looks like Jeff w those were put on by someone other than factory.

WV HillyBilly, thanks for the reply. I already have the two shoes (original), just not the mounts. However, I do like what you have there. Will get back to you if can't find original.

Thanks Garry, downloaded the file, but, saw no photos. Currently have shoes, but no mounts. The mounts in pic I sent would be the ones if I find them.

Not sure if you can zoom in but heres a picture of my c-81 with the blade mounted, the skids on mine are round and they adjust up or down using a coupla nuts on the treaded rods.

Benji757, thanks for reply. I have the shoes like your, but, no brackets. Where did you find your brackets?

They were on the plow when I bought it I will try to get a better picture of it and post here for you but looking at your pictures it looks like you have the mounts already it would be the tubes with the bolt in them I think.

There are no brackets, just the slots where carriage bolts slip through. Older blades do not have slots. Maybe the key hole your referring to is actually the bolt slots.

Yep, that's it. Carriage bolt heads slip in through there, then skid shoes just bolt on.
