Thank you for all the replies. After calling every tractor dealer I could find, I ended up locating a 6' back blade with pivot, offset and tilt from a small tractor dealer 175 miles away. I drove there yesterday and got home last night. That's about as much as I want to drive for things anymore. It is 325 lbs so not that cheap junk. It was not inexpensive, but I needed it and bought it.

I live about 25 miles SW of Spokane, WA - as the crow flies. Been into tractors for 40 plus years. I have yet to find any descent used tractor implements. Used implements for large tractors - yes.

I keep looking but just know that there is next to nothing out there.

My purchases have been from Rhino, Land Pride, Wallenstein and Bush Hog. All brand new implements. All are Cat 2 implements and weigh over 800 pounds. My Rhino 950 rear blade weighs in at 1100#. It's an eight foot blade.

My 7-ft rear blade, and 7-ft landscape rake, were bought used locally off a show the one local radio station has, called “Swap Shop”, where people call in and have couple of minutes to tell what they have for sale or are looking for. I was waiting online to ask for Category One three point attachments, and the guy before my called in to sell the rake and blade I was looking for. $800 for both, and he dropped them off next time he came down my way.

I am looking for a rear blade and am having tremendous difficulty finding anything out west that is both available and what I need. I am looking for a 6' blade which has angle, offset and tilt, and is not the super cheapo lightweight type. They seem to be in the 325 to 390 lb range. Tractor dealers seem to have nothing in stock - if I can even get a hold of a salesperson. How should I look for one of these things? Craigslist has zero.
My 8’ Bison blade tilts, angles, and offsets. I’m sure they make a 6’ blade too.

The freight isn’t too bad. I bought a Fred Cain plow from EA a year ago, and the shipping was only about $100 to New Mexico.
