Box Scraper Box Blade sizing

[billt102]

I have a JD 4300 CUT MFWD and run a 5' box blade with or without rippers depending on the task and it works GREAT... covers my tracks and moves a lot of dirt. PS I work in heavy clay a lot. you can bog a 65 horse tractor out with a 5' box blade in heavy clay. I've done it. you just have to know how deep you can go on a given pass.

I have the King Kutter 60" box blade that weighs just over 400 lbs. Moved a lot of dirt and rocks with it behind a very worn out Ford 1310 no problems. I now use it behind a Kubota B2320 HST and have no problems moving dirt with it. I'll vote with the cover your width crowd.
