Push Industries 118.624 18-Inch Plow Wings Snow Blade Extension Kit for John Deere (Yellow) – Replaces OEM LP53767

What It Is

The Push Industries 118.624 18-Inch Plow Wings Snow Blade Extension Kit is an aftermarket accessory that attaches to a John Deere front-mounted snow blade, widening the blade by 18 inches total (9 inches per side) for clearing deeper snow in a single pass. It’s designed for use on compatible John Deere lawn tractors, zero-turn mowers, or compact utility tractors equipped with the OEM snow blade system.

Fitment & Compatibility

• Deck size: Not deck-related—this mounts to the snow blade frame, not the mower deck. Check your snow blade’s width and attachment points.
• OEM replacement: Replaces John Deere OEM part LP53767. Fits John Deere snow blades on models like X300, X500, X700 series, and select 100-series tractors with the QA (Quick Attach) blade system.
• Measurements: Blade extension adds 9 inches per side; verify your existing blade is at least 18 inches wide (most are 42–54 inches) to avoid overhang issues.
• What to check: Confirm your tractor’s blade mount is compatible with the QA system. Not for non-John Deere brands or older blade designs (e.g., manual lift only). Measure blade width and compare to your tractor’s stance—too wide may interfere with tires or steering.

Key Things to Know

• Quality: Heavy-duty steel construction, powder-coated yellow to match John Deere. Solid welds; holds up to packed snow and ice without bending.
• Installation: Moderate difficulty—requires basic tools (wrenches, socket set) and about 30–60 minutes. Bolts directly to existing blade edges; no drilling or cutting needed.
• Gotcha: Adds weight (approx. 15 lbs); may slightly reduce lift capacity on smaller tractors. Also increases blade width—check clearance with front tires at full turn to avoid rubbing.
• Aftermarket note: Not OEM but identical fitment; saves roughly 30–50% vs. John Deere branded kit. Reviews note consistent alignment with mounting holes.

Should You Buy It

Yes, if you own a compatible John Deere tractor with a QA snow blade and need to clear wider paths faster without upgrading to a larger blade. Best for homeowners with moderate-to-heavy snowfall (6+ inches) who want a cost-effective alternative to OEM. Skip it if your tractor is very small (e.g., SCUT) or if you already have a blade over 54 inches wide—extensions may cause handling issues.
