This works pretty well for plowing snow with a tractor bucket. First off, you have to realize that snow plows will work better for pushing snow out of driveways. Tractor buckets do OK, don't follow the ground contour as well. But I can scrape the roadway end of the driveway and mailbox area much better with the tractor. And it does a decent job with the plowing, and faster than my snowblower. I found the 3/8" clamp bolts too flexible to adequately keep the shoes from moving around (but did not come off) so I drill/tapped the nuts to 1/2-13 and used some grade 8 bolts. Now they stay in place very well and I can drill for larger bolts if I need to. I was going to fabricate my own shoes but I saw these were cheaper than I could make. (I'm a retired fabricator/welder). Decently made - they appear to be AR-type steel; edges are a bit sharp; and welds are rough but they scrape the ground so they don't need to be "pretty". Definitely worth it if you want to plow snow with a tractor bucket. Probably good for a lot more but I haven't tried yet.Update 12/04/22 We used the shoes all last Winter to plow snow and they worked great. They never came loose after I "fixed" them. The only issue was that when I tried to backdrag, the shoe cut a shallow furrow in the gravel. But they never came loose. Further, we dug up and added gravel to the driveway this past Spring. The shoes on the bucket definitely help with smoothing it out.Don't expect "pretty", and do expect to rework the clamp screws. Like any machinery, you gotta work it within it's limitations, otherwise it will work you.
