I got out the 630 dozer blade that came with my mf12h yesterday.  I noticed the wear bar had excessive wear.  Im trying to decide the best way to fix it.  I'm just curious as to what others have done to replace the wear bar.  I was thinking of just welding some 1/4" strap to it.  Let me know if anyone has a better idea?

Many of the cutting edges are designed to be turned over to give a second cutting edge. If you are talking about the shoes, just weld on a new piece of steel on the bottom. Pictures will help us to help you. Good Luck, Rick

I'll try to take some pictures when I'm home later tonight.  The blade and shoe are the same part.  It is an interesting design.

To me it looks like they took a piece of angle iron and kinked one leg of it in a press brake. Fortunately for me where I work they have a brake, but I haven't tried to duplicate the wear bar yet. Too busy I guess!

On my Wheel Horse front plow, I just put a piece of 4" high, 42"long 1/4" piece of flat steel on it.

I used a.......damn forgot what it is called.... to make the square holes for carrage bolts.

I believe that is called a broach.

Here is a pic of the wear bar.

I'm going to have to go dig mine out. That pic looks different somehow. Ita also different than the assembly manual.
I know they made a couple of different versions...

Here is another pic.

I took several pics of mine and tried to compare the, to what you have. I just can't quite make 1+1= anything useful.
These are of the blade that is on the MF12

And these are of the other blade (Ryan's) that isn't mounted on anything and is easy to get to.


I know these are different than yours, but if you need any measurements, please let me know.

I welded on a new wear bar today.
