This item has been sourced from the original manufacturer to be used with snowthrowers from Yard Machines, MTD, Troy-Bilt, and Yard-Man. The metal skid shoe attaches to the side of the auger housing. The shoe is used to allow the housing to slide over the ground and to set the height of the auger assembly. This item is sold individually.
Removed the bolts holding the shave plate and shoes on. Replaced the shave plate and shoes. The bolts holding the shave plate on were worn down, and I had to use a 4 inch angle grinder to cut one nut/bolt off.
I\'ve had my Troy-Bilt Storm 2840 snow blower for ten years and haven\'t had to do anything to it except the annual oil change / maintenance. The shave plate and slide shoes were extensively worn down after ten years of use and were in need of replacement. I ordered new parts which arrived in a matter of a few days (quick). Replacement
... Read more is basically removing the lock nuts from the carriage bolts that hold these parts to the hopper. Putting the new parts in place with the carriage bolts and retightening new lock nuts. I used a socket and a box end wrench to accomplish this. I also used a small piece of wood (2X4) to rest the hopper on during removal and installation. Note: If you keep an eye on the slide shoes and don\'t let them get too worn down, you could remove them, reinstall them upside down for more use as the top and the bottom are the same.
