The skid shoes work, however, they could use a much larger contact point on the loader bucket....it doesn't take much for the shoes to work themselves loose and slip sideways or even fall off the loader bucket. I'll be welding some steel stock to the ends of the screws for a larger contact point.
They work great for the price, just be careful that they don't come loose and get buried in a pile of snow...I had to keep tightening the bolts down during use to keep them from falling off, which they did a couple times.
Almost 1/4" thick steel that they are made out of, they'll last a long....long time.
