FWIW...

Last year I got a 48" Woods Landscape rake at an auction and since it has been fantastic for periodic "grooming" on the gravel road I maintain...very effective...
However...being only 4 foot wide it takes about three passes to cover the width of the road...
The only drawback was that it always left two trails of gravel that spilled out of either end of the rake...going back over the "trails" only left two more trails that I would end up having to hand rake out...
SO...

I cut two pieces of 1/4" diamond plate that matched the end profile of LR...the trailing edge of the plates are about an inch above the working end of the tines and I (knife) ground the forward edges...
It works extremely well and entirely eliminated the spillage trails...It also makes collecting the gravel that built at the ditch shoulders...
