Looking to get a larger blade for the L3240, want something heavy enough for plenty of counterweight with my unloaded turfs.
Current choices are a local used Woods SR25HD or ordering a EA extreme with swinging tailgate. The woods nice blade but worried it might be a bit much for the tractor, weighs about 1000lbs and is 78" wide, the EA blade I'm looking at is also 78" because its actually less expensive then the 72" version (at least until they fix the price) and weighs about 800lbs.
Anyone with experience of a L3240 have any advice on whether the Woods would be too much for doing road maintenance? I like the weight and the swing down rippers, just hate to get it and find its too much for the tractor.
Was going to build one but with steel prices where they are and not much time I decided to just buy, unfortunately its surprisingly hard to find a decent 6ft heavy box blade around my area, especially for a good price.
Primary uses are road maintenance but will also be doing grading.
