Will BRINE destroy A Truck??

What happens here

Inside the shop, the team takes a precise measurement of the plow's height from the ground to the plow-mount. They find that the current plow is an inch and a half too high, which means a drop plate is necessary for optimal performance. They explain that some plows offer four different adjustments, including an angled puck that can set the plow further up or down. The discussion highlights the importance of having the right plow-to-ground clearance to prevent damage and ensure effective snow removal.

Goal: Verify the exact drop needed for the plow and understand available adjustments.
