Has anyone seem 5'-6' lawn rollers? I am looking for something to pull behind my TDC270 to roll about 4-5 acres of pasture. I would like it at least as wide as the tire tracks.

Here's a suggestion. It may be more $$$$ than you're looking to spend, but a idea anyway.

Take a look at Ferguson "Yardmaker" seeders. They're a relatively inexpensive seeder with a roller/aerifier mounted on the rear end. They come in 4', 5', 6', 7', and 8' versions. The roller can be filled with water for extra weight. They come in 3-point hitch or pull-type. Seeder is merely a drop seeder that runs (by chain) from the roller. Aerifier spikes are about 2-1/2" long. I believe they're in the $2200 for a 6', 3-point model. Been several years since I priced one.

They can spread seed, fertilizer, or lime.

Here is a related thread I started a while ago (hope it works):

I'm looking at Northern Tool's catalog and they have an Agri-Fab steel roller on sale for $189.99 [item 250465] but is is still only 48" wide. The folks identified in the thread wanted around $700 for a 72" wide roller; I'm having trouble justifying the price differential.
