Re: 54\"Snow Blade Price
The JD 54" blade is exactly the same for the small CUT's (4010, 4110, 4115, older 4100 and 2210) and the 400 and 500 series garden tractors.
On the CUT's, as other have mentioned, it may be a bit small for optimum efficiency for that tractor size. My 4100 has no problem pushing a full 54" blade full of heavy snow. Only when trying to pile it up into a high frozen bank do I stall or spin the tires.
I have often wished for a wider blade, so this winter I plan to try out my modified version. I replaced the steel wear strip with UHDPE to protect my fancy new driveway. While I was at it, I used 1/4" HDPE to put a anti-stick face over the surface of the blade. I extended this out to the sides an additional 5 inches on each side for a total width of 64". If I have problems with the extensions bending or cracking, I can cut them off to maybe me only 3" per side or all the way back to 54" wide.
More details after the first big snow!
