EA Land leveler for driveway, comments please

[i579rbd]

Hey ya'll
I am thinking about buy a Land Leveler to use for my very hard packed and uneven driveway. A regular blade won't do the trick. Anybody have any experience with these or another product? I looked at DR power graders and saw several bad reviews. Also if a 4 Wheeler can pull it, it won't be up for this job. Thanks for your time.

You can pull most land plane grader scrapers (LPGS) easily with the 2240 or 5410. I would skip the four wheeler if those two tractors in your signature are available to use. There are countless threads on these attachments to search through, some of us have built our own too. Lots of reading for you.

I am looking at the Land Pride Unit.
The GS1560 is the closest to size for my tractor.
Local Dealer quoted $1150 with stratisfiers.

Anyone using the GS1560 ?

Davrow has a GS1572 I believe. He has a Kioti CK27. He's even out in your neck of the woods. You might PM him and ask how it likes his.

Brian, now I know where he got the idea!

I hate to admit it but the backhoe has stayed on since you were here. I haven't tried the LPGS yet. :laughing: It's really for after I retire and have more time out at 'the ranch'.

Woooops, sorry about that. Figured that you had used it by now. We still need to get you set up with a ROBB and a grapple., All in time.

I bought a EA 6' Land Leveler [ Land Plane, LPGS, etc ] last year and really like the job it does. Pulled real easy with my 2240. You have to make several passes, and each pass loosens up the hard pack until you are eventually digging down to the full depth. I was going to order the the 7', but changed the order to the 6' so I could use it out in the woods on my trails... plus, you only need a width that is 1/2 your driveway width so you can hill it up if you want to. EA unit is well built, and I likes it...!!!!

So I bought a six footer last week and love it. My driveway was pretty jacked up and it did a great job. My smaller 2240 is the better tractor for this as it is easier to maneuver.

Brian, Scrambler82 - I'm feeling quite stupid... I don't have a Land Pride unit, I have a Gearmore GS6.




I believe they are in Ontario (So Cal, not Canada) - one of the few mfg outfits on the west coast.

Actually, Gearmore is nothing more than a middle man. To the best of my knowledge and I have been there, they build nothing. They are just middle men with their logo on things. So Dave, when do we get to see your equipment dirty????
