These are replacement skid shoes for ATV/UTV snow plows, designed to protect the blade edge and reduce wear when plowing on paved or gravel surfaces. They fit 60” plows on Polaris, Can-Am, Arctic Cat, and Moose brands, sold as a set of two.
Fitment & Compatibility
Before buying, confirm your plow’s blade width is 60 inches and the mounting hole spacing matches. These shoes fit Polaris Ranger and Sportsman models, Can-Am Outlander/Commander, Arctic Cat Alterra, and Moose-branded plows. They are aftermarket replacements, not OEM Polaris parts. Measure the existing shoe’s bolt pattern (center-to-center distance) and hole diameter—typically 3.5”–4” apart with 3/8” or 5/16” holes. Check clearance between the shoe and blade edge to avoid interference with blade angle or lift mechanisms.
Key Things to Know
- Material: Made from hardened steel or heavy-duty nylon; steel lasts longer on gravel but can scratch pavement, nylon is quieter and gentler on concrete.
- Installation: Simple bolt-on job—remove old shoes, align new ones, and tighten bolts (usually included). No special tools needed, but anti-seize compound helps prevent rusted bolts.
- Adjustment: Some shoes have multiple mounting holes to adjust shoe height (higher for gravel, lower for pavement). Set them so the blade rides about 1/2” off the ground.
- Common gotcha: Verify bolt size and thread pitch (often SAE 3/8”-16 or 5/16”-18) before buying; aftermarket sets may include generic bolts that don’t fit your plow’s existing holes.
Should You Buy It
If you plow on mixed surfaces (gravel, asphalt, concrete) and want to extend blade life without spending OEM prices, these are a solid value. They’re best for budget-conscious owners of 60” plows who can confirm bolt pattern compatibility—not ideal if you need exact OEM fitment or have a plow with unusual mounting hardware.
