"If you look at carolinarider's pictures you can see his bushhog is really close to the rear tires, not too big of a deal for a bushhog but when you go to moving dirt with a boxblade it will pile dirt up to the wheel. "
I bought the unit new from a local MF dealer. It has always bothered me that the links that center the arms were so close to the tractor wheels, maybe 2 or 3 inches max, maybe less. Never considered a problem of having my box blade that close to the rear wheels. I may have to look at that.
I have given up using the box blade for any but, what I will call mass movement of things a few feet. I got a land plane for my roads and parking areas around the house and it is great. Having a way to easily change the angle of the thing would be the next thing to add, but that will have to wait.
I will look at the suggested lift arm. Thanks.
