Grading ck30hst r4, rear blade size

[CurtC]

I'm looking to get a rear blade for snow plowing. I'm using a 5' box blade now, but I want to be able to angle.

I'm looking at 6 and 7 foot blades, and I want to be able to rotate the blade around without detaching it. If you have a 6 or 7 and can flip it around, I'd appreciate hearing what brand/model it is, thanks!

Curt,
I've got a 6' on mine and I don't have any problems spinning it around.
It's worked great (almost) for the five years I've had it.
With the past two snowstorms here (30" & 20") I found it a little difficult to get up my concrete driveway at times.
I believe when I get a set of chains, that problem will go away.
I'm sure the 30 would handle a 7' Blade, just not sure it would spin around.

I have a CK25 with a 7' blade (heavy duty), I can't spin it around. I use it angled and it works great.

Yes. 7 footer will spin around. but, just barely.

I have a 6 footer and it works great but I would prefer a 7' - like you say, as long as it spins.

Just barely is fine with me. What brand is that?

I have a 7' blade on my 30, I can spin it around but top link and 3pt heights need to be 'just right' for it to go. I believe the brand is a Sundown, I am out of town and won't be home until Thursday... I can check then if you want.

Mine is a Woods RB84.

Landpride model 2584 (7 footer). Spins around without any problems and is very heavy. I use it for snows up to around 8 inches. After that it's time to fire up the old WM300.
