I have used my 6' regular drag blade (for lack of a better description) for years and just use it for my gravel drive, pulling gravel back on the crown of the road. It is a cheap swivel/ angle type but more than serves the purpose. I just got the new tractor with FEL and was thinking of getting a box blade for the added rear weight for loader work but not really sure of all the advantages of a box blade over the rear blade for my use. Or should i just build a concrete ballast box for weight and forget the Box Blade. Andy
