DK40 Box Blade size? 72"? 78"? 84"?

That is a good deal IMO, even though it is a 78" unit. Manual ripper bar is nice, you don't need an extra set of rear remotes.

Would it be relatively easy to convert a lever operated rippers to hydraulic?

I believe that the phrase "relatively easy" is relative. For some people that have the know how and equipment, it would BE EASY. For others, maybe not so much.

I see it now the numbers, DOH on my part. good eye on yours.

Well did you check into it?

Yes , on the phone the seller admits he had no callers on his ad. He is willing to accept 500 but he has no way to loade it in my truck.

Landscape trailer with loading gate, pipe bar, two grown men, and maybe a comealong or even ratchet straps.

See if he has any neighbors with tractor and FEL. Offer them $50 for 10 minutes of work.

Good luck!

He is going to have a tough time selling it then.

Get a rollback to go pick it up for you.

I agree, rent one of these, take some sort of devise to pull it on the trailer and you would be home with a GREAT deal and an even better box blade. I have found that good deals usually are not easy, thus are available and good deals.

I like the rollback idea as they usually have an electric winch. But they are not cheap. You ought to be able to get a further discount due to this.

If for some reason you cant get trailer and a second healthy helper, take a pick up, farm jack, and plently of dunage/wood blocks/concrete blocks and a couple stout levers. It might take an hour or two, but with a big enough lever you can move the world. Then back the truck under one end. Dont try to only jack one side; lift, block, then lift and block other side, ect, ect till about 3-6" higher then tail gate.
