Does anyone make a Belly Blade for CUT

You're correct that a long wheelbase and a mid blade are ideal.

However, a mid-mounted blade is better than front or rear mounted even on short wheelbase.

The closer to the midpoint of the front and rear axles you are, the more level a blade will grade. A front or rear blade that extends too far out follows the terrain so closely they actually make the bumps worse.

Tisk tisk. You made the mistake of posting photos of tractors parked next to a great looking classic car. /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I work for Grouser Products. This year (2004) we started manufacturing a belly blade for CUT's. Currently we are only making them for Case, New Holland, & Kubota tractors in current production. JD we are making the belly blade for the Large frame 4000's (4500, 4600, 4700 & 10's). We haven't put it up on the web site yet. We are redesigning the web site. If you wish to receive more info. please send and email to grouser@grouser.com in the subject line put request belly blade literature. Please include name, address, city, state, zip and tractor models that you would like to have a belly blade for. grouser@grouser.com Thank you

Jason,
Thank you for participation on this site. Manufactures, their representatives and employees are always welcome on TBN. Their insight is valued.
Do you have any pictures of the blades that you could post?
