I don't know if it would work for anyone else, but I have generously applied anti-sieze to the nuts/bolts and surrounding mating surfaces after replacing wear parts on my 2 small plows. Anything exposed will wear off, but I figured just the threaded area would make a difference. I can still loosen the nuts with tools, saving the hot wrench for any that may not. Plows are stored outside, but on blocks, and I clean the dirt off them front/back, then coat the moldboards with paint when done.
Farmer & friend I worked with years ago, had me weld worn shares onto existing ones on his plow, providing more wear surface. I had never heard of doing this, but gladly welded them on, and saw that his plow did a nice job. At some point he must have to pull those and replace with new, but he said he'd get 30 or more acres out of it in these soils. I used 5/16" 7018 and my Miller NT 251 on DC, heat set at 130 if I recall. None broke in these rocky soils, but I was thinking different when doing this, amazing what 7018 can hold together.

With Ben, anyway, I can tell! He'll be busy working and I�m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I�ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I�ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see. "Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
