Rear Blade Advice

[K10]

Thank you. I like the curve of the blade on the Woods RBC series but for $200 less, I will take a hard look at the TSC XB model.

Rhino makes a nice RB #200 that is light duty and easily fits the BX. However I traded it in for a Rhino #300 that tilts and is 100 lbs heavier. It lifts just fine but just barely fits on the lower arms. The weight and the tilt allows me to do more ditching and scraping. The price is average from a Dealer.

I have one of the TSC rear blades on my BX and it works great.

I wished you were closer to me ,I'd give you a good deal on a woods rb60 that a friend gave me . He bought a 58hp JD and it came with it, to small for him. He got a bigger one. I need a 6' not a 5' so am looking to trade it or sell it ,only used a few times and is in great shape,just some surface rust. I really don't know what to ask for it,$ wise.

Whichever model(s) you gravitate toward, I would suggest keeping an eye on Craig's list. There are 3 available within 50 miles of me for $250.00 or less in good shape.

I have been looking on craigslist for about a month now but have not seen anything that is worth going after to this point. I will continue to poke around.

There is a Bush Hog blade available on Craigslist. Any opinions on Bush Hog? It is a new unused 20-06 model. For a 6' blade at 164LBS it would seem rather light. Some of the other 5' models are 80LBS heavier.

You're right about waiting to find one with more weight, since all the downforce on the TPH is going to be a product of the weight and front to back length of the implement. Couple a good, hefty blade with a set of chains, as easygo suggested, and you should be ready to handle a decent NH snowfall and also do some earth work when it gets warm again.

I have the TSC county line 60" (dark yellow, not the orange XB) and used it with no problems on my BX 24. It seemed heavier built than the XB. It does a great job plowing in heavy snow - especially with chains on the rear tires. With the top link shortened it will lift the bottom of the blade to about a foot off the ground (when I first put it on the top link was extended and it only went up about 3 inches).
