Does anyone have any opinions on the Jbar heavy duty box blade ( dragon box)

Anyone? Looks like a decent price for bolt on/reversible blade box blade

Thanks for the link RD.

I looked at the Dragon model, looks okay but nothing special, If looking for an economy boxblade I suggest you look at the Cammond brand.

What do you consider to be a decent price? I have definitely seen ones that are built heavier-duty than that.

Yes that's the one. (The second one on the page) There's a distributor in Milton, FL asking $380 for the 6 footer and $340 for the top one with welded on cutting edges. They are made in Georgia.
Don't know the weight. Going to look at it tomorrow afternoon.

I'd probably rework the mounting and go with clevis plates instead of pins, but **** it's new, shiny and only 35 miles away. He'll load it in the truck and I'll lift it out with the bucket when I get home.

I did buy it yesterday and tried it out today. Stopped the tractor dead a few times on roots and it didn't complain a bit. I gotta find a shorter top link so I can adjust it a bit lower in front, but, over all, I'm happy.
