Thoughts on this Boxblade???

sjm1580 · Feb 28, 2016

Does anyone know if the back blade locks in place as well as floats? I asked the fella that owns it and he didn't know???

Was also thinking about adding a Pats Quick Change setup to switch from bush hog to this, is the quick change strong enough when using a unit like this?

Thanks for all the input, I'm going to go get that thing this week!

do you have any higher quality pictures of the tailgate area the 2nd set of pictures is just thumbnails to low of a resolution). Most tailgates that float can be pined in place.

If 1250 is his asking price then he may take less just to move it but even at that price you cant loose if you need one.

can't say for sure but there is a nut and washer on this flange 17 and 18. that might lock it in.

The gate on mine will lock in place with a half inch bolt.

EDIT: I see xring100 beat me to it.

Man you guys are GREAT! Any ideas on the Pats Quick Change setup for something heavy like this. I will be using this on my Kubota L5740.

Thanks

I'm sure they will work, I've just never been a fan, mine are lying around somewhere; never put them on my 5740 when I traded my L5030. I am the exception though as most love them.
