I have a 40 HP NH and am in the market for a 6' boxblade. This will cover my rear wheels. What size end plates will be sufficient for my tractor? I would like 3/8" thick endplates, is this going overboard? Thanks for any help. AJ
As mentioned, on a box blade, weight is your friend, so I would buy as good and heavy as you can comfortably afford. At times I wish I had gone just a little heavier myself. I am adding weight to mine, but ideally that would not be necessary.
we have made box blades, in the past, where the moldboard and sideplates were all 3/8". in the retail market, landpride makes a great piece of equipment. but, you have to jump to the more expensive ones to get the thicker steel.
As others have said, weight is your friend.
