Just an update.i shimmed down the plow frame about 1 inch.that was about as far as I could go but enough to get the plow to sit flat any all angles.before next winter I'll probably take the time to fix it permantly/correctly

 

I can't remember which plow mount you have BUT if it's the Glacier II and you created a gap between the mounting plate and the bottom of the ATV, you are going to bend that mounting plate like a pretzel after forming your first few snow banks!
I had many problems with the G2 mounting plates bending, welded perimeter reinforcements, and nothing worked. So I gave up, sold it, and bought a new Kubota tractor.

In a sense,that's exactly what I did.ive put to the test pretty hard and so far so good.im confident it will finish the season.if it don't,oh well it was a pos anyway!
