a 60" box blade will work on your ck30hst or you can use a 72" box blade on it. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif

Go with the 20 series.

The CK 30 calls for 700# of ballast.
I perfer on the 25/30's a 65" boxblade.
It fits the width of the Ind. tires nicely.
For example a Woods GB65 weighs 532#. This is not an "econo" blade but it is the last one you will buy.
You could step up to the SR65 with the floating tailgate now it weighs in at 712#.

I have a Woods GB60. Tractor pulls it fine. CK30 shuttle shift.

Thank's for your reply's... I tried gear and hst on Friday the dealer had a pile of stone dust in the back so I finally had the chance to try both trany's and put it to the test, the loader lifted fine without rear weight but I would not recommend it for everyday use, as for comparing HST to the shuttle shift I did not see any power lost with the HST, it was as aggressive, as shuttle, even in mid range, I guess it's a question of choice... Now for the box blade it will be the kioti brand,so I think the best bet would be the 72 to make sure it cover's those R4 tires, again thank's for all your reply...cag
