I'll try and keep this short.
Owner of a new 45hp 6000lb 4wd tractor with fel. Kioti DK 4510 to be exact. 4 loaded ag tires.
Live up in Maine on a 1/2 mile abandoned town Rd. Mostly straight, couple small hills. Don't think it's seen gravel in a very long time. No real ditches. very low in spots.
I DON'T WANT TO MAKE THE ROAD BEAUTIFUL, I like it a little rough to keep people out, however this has been a bad mud season and there are ruts that could swallow a small child.
I intend to start having loads of gravel brought in for the worst spots and just get a load here and there when I have the extra money.
I guess I have two questions. For this situation box blade or rear blade?
Second question is what type of gravel do I need to ask for? Someone mentioned 4" minus as road base but can I drive on that in the meantime?
Side note I have a separate rig for plowing do I don't NEED it for that.
