Next best thing to an EA box blade?

[XR4140]

This looks like a decent unit.
New Dirt Dog SBX 72" HD Box Blade *Can Ship Cheap & Fast* | eBay
This looks like the United I have
Behlen Country 6' Heavy Duty Box Blade

The Behlen may be a winner at $800 shipped..

Edit: Not Clevis

Clevis = HD

Pins = Not Heavy duty. <100 lbs/ft = not HD.

That's not a HD BB. IMO.

When you are right, you're right.

I don't know how much it'd cost to get it shipped but Lowery Manufacturing makes a decent "HD" box blade. I've got the 7ft MT BB and it weighs about 720 lbs.

I paid about $750 for mine.

LMC Box Blades

I looked and compared 32 BBs I believe before I bought the EA BB. I think Woods would have been my #2 choice.



Don’t drool too much lol. I ordered mine in like Feb of this year with a 4+ week build. I got it in about 5 weeks. But they have been slammed ever since.

I got a 78in BB on a 48hp 4x4 Tractor

LMC Box Blades

According to LMC, my 6' HD BB weighs 675 lbs on the hoof.

OP, Look at the LMC page posted above in post #8. Note the differences between the "Economy", "Standard" and "MT" versions. What do you see?

- Bolted vs welded major sections
- Pins vs. clevis mount
- Cat 1 only vs. Cat1/Cat2 compatible

Your property/land and tractor will be there a while, bite the bullet, do it right. Save up some money and get the EA version or the LMC MT version. Otherwise, you'll be penny wise but pound foolish - and regret it.


Good luck.
