Description

This height skid, also called a snowblower slide shoe, attaches to the auger housing and glides along the ground. This helps to ensure that the snowblower moves across the ground evenly. The height skid will also lift the auger housing, which helps to reduce the risk of damage. The height skids contact the ground when the snowblower is in use. This means that it could suffer from many types of damage. They should be checked regularly for signs of wear or breakage, so they can be replaced. Without the height skids in place and working properly, it could put the auger housing at risk and make it more difficult to use the snowblower. This is a genuine OEM height skid. This item is sold individually. However, it is recommended to replace both of the skids at the same time to ensure that the height is even. The skid is compatible with many snowblower models from Craftsman, Murray, and Briggs & Stratton. Buyers should always consult their manuals to ensure they are buying the proper replacement parts for their snowblowers.
