J Bar attachments

[RJJR]

Any of you folks have any experience with JBar attachments? They have a 6 foot box blade that weighs 448lbs for $450.00. The end plates and scarfier box are 1/4". A-Frames are 3/8" x 3". The price is definately right although it seems a little light to me but it is advertised as Heavy duty? How does this compare in specs to some of the other brands?
Thanks

Never heard of them :
Their Dragon model looks ok,but IMHO I don't like the way their economy mdl attaches their 3 pt A-frame to boxblade.Looks flimsy to me.Just my thoughts from pic.Also their ECO mdl has weld-on blade.

Thanks bullbreaker. i noticed those same items on the eco model but the 6 foot only list for $385 so I guess I can't expect much for the money. Either way, I've convinced myself don't want to put that one behind my 45HP tractor. I think their heavy duty is still going to be medium at the very best and hope someone on here has one and can vouch one way or another.
Thaks again,

I believe I read some not so good things about the J Bar stuff from a search on the site. Seems their stuff was made light and wore out / tore up easy.

Did you try looking on Craigs-list ?
Just a thought.

Yea, I tried but nothing used and in good shape was available locally. Actually I found this company's products being advertised as new by someone in the local ads on craigs list...
Thanks again,

I have a J-Bar back blade, It seems to be well made, and made in the USA as well. Don't know much more about the company. They do have a website, J Bar Farm & Industrial implements
