P1000 Denali Pro Plow install issue

[Sickartistic]

I just installed a 72” Denali Pro plow last night. The setup looks good, however with the stop blocks on the shortest settings the springs will not come close to tightening up. If I move the setting of the stop blocks the springs tighten up but the threaded eyelet lock nuts are all the way down and the blade seems to lean too far forward. The skid shoes also sit at an extreme forward angle. I can not help but think I did something wrong. I watched a few install videos and it seems like my springs may be too long. Has anyone experienced this?

Welcome from BC. I would post some pics of your issue. There are members here that run the same plow and can help. Pictures will make it easier for understanding. Good luck.

I have the same plow but it would help to see a few pictures.

If I remember right, the stop blocks are longer on one end vs the other…but my plow has been in use for 5 years now. My memory is a bit rusty.

Would also like to see some pics.
Here is a stock image. You can see there are plenty of threads.
Could also pickup 2 new eyelets at local hardware store.

Consider making a spacer for the bolts.
Get some larger nuts and a washer, stack them under the 2 lock nuts.
