You are right it's just the only tool i have at the moment. I ended up trying the impact and it could not get them loose. Just need a bigger one :)

They are 24mm and that is how tight the dealer had them, i'll get a breaker bar! i was always under the impression that the larger ratchets could handle more but breaker bars are cheap.

harbor freight and craftsman have broken on me getting lug nuts loose. I am rough with them using a 6 ft pipe. I do have a impact driver maybe that will work better.

I have tired the rear blade but it just tears up the road crown.

Would a Landscape Rake be the best to move gravel back onto the road? My gravel always ends up on the road edges.

I figured that much, i just have never seen anyone using in backwards. Looking like i will not get a chance to try it as the snow we are getting is mostly ice/rain so far.

Seems wrong and like the pivot point would be in the way stopping snow from rolling off but i will give it a try.

Just to clarify this is the blade that i have, i just need to turn it around and drive forward?

Does the PVC pipe on the rear blade help even more?

Is that part of why it does a better job?

Do you just let it float? There is not much weight to a rear blade.

It does push it side ways when you get a pile of snow in front, i get that a lot. We don't usually have enough cold for the driveway to be frozen.

Do you guys think a rear blade works better than a front mounted one on a gravel driveway? To me using the rear blade seems strange since you would run over the snow before plowing it and would also seem to have the same issues with digging in. The front plow i have is a land pride B2673 72" i...

You are right about the ends digging in, I also have a 3 point rear blade that I have never tried to use. Seems like it would have the same issues as the front qa blade.

finally got some snow and i got to use my manual adjusting land pride 72" QA snow blade! I always plow a few inches off the gravel road but the issue is i can not get past is hills. I can have it set perfectly but as soon as you start to go down hill it causes the plow to be down facing plowing...
