Welcome. Just scraped my road yesterday with a box blade.

a box makes it easy to drag material to fill voids.. however with practice and an angle blade you can drag some material too. depends on how much road you ar emaintaining.

if you don't want to purchase a box and have a spare angle blade to doctor on. weld ears on it and run it straight. it will pull dirt like a box.. etc.

think I just found a 5' box blade. It is to cold to use the 9n, hope I can use it on the cab 5320. It has the double ball
system, cat 1 also cat 2. do you think I need the hyd. top link to make it work better? about a mile of road to do.

also thanks!

you will have a hard time doing a top n til hyd link system on a 9n without an aux pump of some sort... or very exagerated re configuration of the internal hyds flow.

I think I am going to use the deere 5320 to start with, it has a loader on it so I will be able to back drag with it also, and I can use the hyd. top link to. might try the 9n after I figure out where to set the top link.

The box blade is one of the single best tools for any tractor. Im not sure how well the 2wd tractors do with a box blade, you might load the rears if you find yourself loosing traction. My 33HP 4wd tractor is almost too small when working a 5' box blade hard. Good Luck.
