I purchased a 5' rearblade from TSC that is IMatch compatible to use with my x749. You just need to check the fit on any implements you want to buy to make sure they will work for you.

So, I picked up the JD/Frontier RB2060L blade.... Measured a couple TSC models, and tried my brothers 5 footer from northern tool that he runs on his Kubota. No dice on a fit to the iMatch, which is why i went with the Frontier...
Plusses: Its Green, pretty beefy frame for the 5 foot width, iMatch compatible, I didn't have to wait for it, Has already been put to work, and... my dealer is REALLY good.
Minuses: a bit pricey (ok, very pricey), small-ish in height - in comparison to other blades I've come across...
I'll use it a lot.... Not especially strenuous demands...but frequent use. So, I'll see how it works over time...
Thanks!

I had similar issues when shopping for the small boxblade, couldn't find one I liked other than at the dealer. So I wound up with a Cammond 48" boxblade and a Frontier 60" landscape rake. I was able to find the rearblade at TSC for $250 which is good enough for my purposes on a garden tractor. I use these for light touch up work to save me the cost of moving the larger equipment in.
