I just bought a 3400hst and am wanting to get a box blade for it. What is the widest blade to use safely with this tractor? Thanks

Probably a 5 ft would be it. I think if you are gonna dig hard and deep a 5 ft BB will be all you could handle.

I have a 3410 and I use a 72" rollover box blade and an 84" blade. It bogs the tractor down pretty good when full but it still pulls it.

Cheers

I use a 830lb 66" BB on my L2800 and I have to use low and it is a diggin machine. I got the 66" because the rear tire spacing is 60".
My previous BB was 65" and worked just fine...just didn't dig as well.
Heres a link to a pic.
