I just upgraded from a B2620 to a L3240 but because of the size jump a lot of my implements are now too small so I'm looking to upgrade those as well.
Mainly looking for a larger box blade and rear blade, I've looked at the "recommended" sizing in the manual but I know from experience that Kubota is very conservative on sizing and their recommendations won't cover my tire tracks. (~71in outside tire to tire)
Looking for some feedback from people that have used larger blades on this size tractor. I'm looking at a 72" box blade which I think it'll handle no problem for my needs based on how well it pulled my full 60" box up my steepest hill grading the road.
The problem is deciding on a rear blade, in order to cover my tracks when angled id have to go up to an 8ft blade, I don't mind doing that, but I'm just worried I'll run out of power/traction at that size with a 32hp 5800lb tractor.
I'm not looking to do a lot of earth moving with it, just some gravel road maintenance/ditching and occasional snow removal. I found a decent deal on a nice 8ft Rhino 950 with hydraulics, just worried it'll be overkill.
Right now I have a fairly heavy 6ft 3way adjustable that I was using on my B series, but once angled its narrower then my track width.
So has anyone ran something like a Rhino 950 on a L3240 before?
