Install was easy getting out the old plow bolts was a little tough. I used vice grips to hold old plow bolt, penetrating oil. Two bolts had to be cut with a grinder with a cut of disc. You will need a 3/8" drive breaker bar, 3/8 extension, ratchet and 9/16 6 point sockets long and short. The long extension to give you clearance over top of mower deck to use impact. Clean area before installing new one. Note save the old washers I reused them with new flat washer and lock washer the new flat washer is not as thick or as big in dia. from the hardware store. I also slapped some grease on the mounting surface after cleaning. Repeat both sides using blue loc-tite on the threads. Pull uptight use your breaker bar to lock down and pull metal together...You could break the new plow bolts or strip the hole so be careful.
