Can anyone recommend/suggest a box blade and landscape rake size and brand for my 1533?

Box blade (5 to 5 1/2')

Rake (5 to 6') - Will handle more but isn't practical

I would at least take out your tire tracks with both.

The sizes that spb stated are the ideal sizes.

You'll need at least a 5 1/2' in either one to cover your tire tracks if you have R4s, 5' may do it with ag tires. Mine's 63" wide with R4s.

I am assuming a 6 box blade will not be too much for the tractor.

You will be fine.

I borrowed a 6' box blade once. Only issue I had was with the fence I tore up where it stuck out on the side I wasn't looking on. Handled it OK as far as moving dirt though.
