Let's see your modified box blades!

Where would you mount your trailer hitch on a rollover?
I'd like to see how folks have reinforced a regular 550lb 6' box blade as it seems I missed my chance at a 7' hyd. gannon box blade of doom...

You can see the hitch on mine.

Looks good, I guess you have to take the hitch out to scarify. I also like the rack on top.

Yes! Now that's what I'm talking about. A Box blade that is twice as useful.

Ok now everyone please pardon my extreme ignorance, but: What is the difference or advantage of a "rollover" box blade? Do they allow the scraped material to overflow the back of the box? I can see that they generally allow for quick engagement or removal of the scarifiers, so that feature looks handy.

But in your case hydro, doesn't your trailer hitch get sent into the ground when you try to engage the scarifiers?

Here is what I did to add weight not fancy but its 350# extra in a small area its a harmonic balancer off a big natural gas compressor engine.

Man, Car Doc, I like that enginuity...how many times have I walked past something like that without a good use??? I just enjoy seeing some of these photos. I have got to get literate and post a few of my own here. I do have a camera with a memory card..

A great mod I made about 9 yr ago, was mounting 1 scarifyer on the end of my box blade plate with 2 bolts and adjustable height. Perfect for putting low voltage electric lines in and small PVC water feed lines to the goldfish pond used for filling after water evaporation. I almost forgot, I ran a Cat 5 Internet cable 300 ft about the same time with this setup and worked perfectly. Working depth was 2-6 inches. You can also do this mod on the side plate of your front loader bucket. Ken Sweet

Pics ? I have about 700' I need to run 18/2 wire.
