Hold up a few guys... I gotta pop some more corn. This has been real entertaining.

The newest review submitted on our website made me chuckle a bit. John in Illinois simply says:
"Your equipment is not farm wanna-be stuff. It's the real thing..."

He just received an EA 60-125 HP rated Large Shank Box Blade with a lockable floating tailgate.

Not his, but it looks a little somethin like this!

The one complaint I have with my 8' EA grader blade is the lack of "handles" on the Cat 1/2 pins. You can see that clearly in the second pic off to the left. Something easily fixed but also something I noticed whenever I use my blade.

My grader has a Cat 1/2 attachment as shown above in the box blade and it's just as well built, stout as heck, should last forever.

We make some hardware for various attachments in our factory, but the cat I-II stepped lift arm pin is outsourced. We've used it since the very first Cat I-II EA attachment and I've never seen one with handles.
It's worth another look-see though! :thumbsup:

FTG: Is this the type of pin that you're asking about?

He's asking about these. Category 1 & 2 combination.

Travis' pic shows what I'm talking about; it's the EA version.

No big deal, I've just been spoiled by my LMC box blade, which uses a similar Cat 1/2 clevis arrangement as the EA HD grader blade:

FTG, Ted likes those pins. When you get a chance, will you stand one up next to ours and take a pic.
Also, a pic of the handled pin with a tape on it would be helpful.
Thanks!

This is what I have, only it's a CAT1+CAT2 pin:

I would figure that handles would be nice.

Here you go Travis and Ted:

Of course, the astute observer will note that I jinxed myself: One of my LMC pins lost it's handle today while using my BB on my road! And now with this post - yep you guessed it: I'll probably lose the other handle tomorrow!!!

Hope this helps!

I apologize if this was posted previously, but where can I buy those cat 1/2 pins with the handles? I have those on multiple attachments but have lost a few due to, well, carelessness.
