Upgrading my arctic snowplow 4K

What happens here

After the old blade is removed, it's crucial to clean the mounting surface of the snow plow thoroughly. Use a putty knife or a similar scraping tool to remove any rust, dirt, or debris that could prevent the new poly blade from sitting flush. Once clean, carefully align the new UHMW poly cutting edge with the bolt holes on the plow. Insert the bolts and hand-tighten them first to ensure proper alignment across the entire blade. Finally, use the impact wrench to fully secure all nuts and bolts, ensuring a tight and stable installation. The option of reversible blades with centered holes allows for extended life by flipping the blade when one side wears down.

Goal: Clean the mounting surface and install the custom-fit UHMW poly cutting edge, securing it with bolts.

[Music] on all right boys I think I'm going to get chewed out here all right what are we looking at all right all right Stanley so you know we like to you know always instruct proper uh how to R tape measure so we see we got a couple holes off there um it's going to be a little bit of challenge to get them through the bolt through but I think we can make it okay it look like it was within 2 in of me now since we filmed this I have had an opportunity to to go snow plowing in this machine and I can tell you that those poy blades one of the big questions is do they scrape as good as steel and in my experience at least on these arcticsid scrape just as good as steel now if they will last as long as steel might be another question but according to these guys they'll last every bit as long as steel and I do have this exact Cutting Edge on my short iron blade and I've used that for three seasons and I may get another one or two seasons out of that yet and I've never gotten 5 years out of any Cutting Edge I've used on any blade anywhere so so far it's been so
