My 2005 Yukon XL

I had hoped to paint the base plates, but im just not going to have time. More snow slated for Monday, leaving this afternoon only to get it back together. I shoulda been doing this over the past summer but procrastination bit me. I am liberally using anti sieze and Fluid Film. All the hardware I got was stainless but only time will tell on the quality.

Mocked together for now. I need to get them at least back on the headgear before tonight making few minutes runs outside. Its blistering cold.

Looks good! how do you access the bulbs on those housings?

The rear has a cover held on with 3 small screws. Once the screws are removed, swing the cover to the right and you can access both bulb pigtails.

Time for adjustment.

Looks mighty fine from over here in eastern Montana.

Do you have any issues with your plow chattering when plowing? Especially when lightly loaded? I've tried all the positions of adjustment and no change.

I thought that was created when the cutting edges is more to 90* angle to the road surface. Like the cutting edge is too close to being verticle.

Supposedly yes but I tried all the adjustments

Is it possible to create some extra adjustment so it can lay back farther ?
I do remember that the one way plow on my truck, if it was wearing more at the heel then the plow needed to be rolled farther forward, toe, back more.
When a cutting edge is laid 90* to the surface it rides against, the the cutting edge is at its maximum cutting energy.

It's definitely wearing at the heel
