Somewhere I either read about it in a post or saw an add for shoes /sleds that easily attach to the leading edge of the FEL for snow removal, especially gravel driveways.
Anyone who has tried using the FEL for snow removal knows that if your angle of attach is too steep, you will dig in and pick up gravel, and if it's too shallow, the FEL tends to ride up over the snow.
These gadgets are designed to allow you to use your FEL in float-mode and maintain a steeper angle of attack, while keeping the front edge slightly above the gravel.

Any information about this product would be appreciated, thanks

Mine arrived today, no experience with them yet. r2manufacturing.com. I got them because of rough uneven ground down where the driveway meets the road and the loader kept catching and pulling up the hardtop join and roadside patches.

I looked at them and they do work really neat, I only see one issue, it's going to impossible to back drag from edge of garage doors.

Thanks for the info...I may buy some.
Valid point about back dragging from edge of garage doors, but not too big a deal cause I park my tractor in the garage and drop the loader right at the edge of the garage door.
