I know you couldn't get the shovel head inside a deep offset wheel to use the wrench, but a section of the handle would be long enough to reach. That's why I said If the handles could be used for a lug wrench it would be even better. Attaching the other handle sections to that handle section would be the tricky part. And my lug nuts are only supposed to be torqued down to 27 ft.-lbs. The handles shouldn't have too much stress on them.

 

Like this? The Polaris Multi-Mount winch on my 01' 500 H.O. had 2 of them. It was so easy to take the winch off the back and put it on the front if I needed it up there, that it takes longer for me to type a reply than switching the winch around did. http://wilsonmfgco.com/products/pin/wirelockpin/

 

Ya that is what I used. I got a tractor and shop a lot at fleet farm Still fell off. The clips are not really tight and no weight hold the pin, when strapped on the back of sled. I could probably try again. But the wing nut works, just have to take cloves off . Hope I don't drop in snow.

 

That's exactly what I was talking about.

 

I thought so. My first ATV plow used a pair of the square-cornered ones to attach the push tubes to the mount. I had to lay on the ground and use my foot to push and pull the blade back and forth to get one pin in, then lay on the ground again to do the other side. I had to lay on the ground 2 more times to pull the pins back out. It sucks doing that over and over if you ride in the winter like I did back then. If I had a garage it wouldn't be so bad but I'd still have to lay down on the floor. I hit the curb or the edge of one of the concrete slabs in my driveway hard enough to bend the pins. Until I got spare pins I had to hammer them out straight to put them in again. My Glacier plow fixed that problem. There aren't any pins. If you get the right size pins they'll work on a trailer hitch to keep the lever on the coupler from unlatching, but I always use a lock to be on the safe side.

 

 

If I'm wearing pants I always have knife in my pocket, unless I'm in a courthouse where I've have gotten a non-metallic knife past the metal detector, but that's another story. So unless I'm out shoveling with no pants on for some unforeseen reason, I don't need a knife in the shovel handle. The knife in my pocket is a lot easier to get to than that one, but if reaching into my pocket is too much trouble, I'll use the multi-tool that's in a belt pouch on my hip. I already have a shovel that chops wood, and I don't need a wrench that I can't actually use as a wrench. And I can pick mushrooms without a knife. Cutting them makes them go bad a lot faster anyway. I'm thoroughly unimpressed by the last video.

 

Seriously, wear the pants.

 

Yeah, the neighbors wouldn't like the view when I bent over.
