Box Blade Size for B2410?

[schmellba99]

I did a search before asking this, but didn't come up with much helpful (granted, my search-foo is probably pretty weak).

Anyhoo, I have a B2410 and am looking for a box blade for the rear to do some light dirt work on my Texas gulf coast gumbo mud little plot of land. I looked at a 6' wide used blade this morning (hey, price was awesome), but it's just too big in my opinion for my 24 horses to pull effectively.

What would be a recommended size? 4'? 5'? I'd like to have one wider than my rear tires, but I don't know if that's something that can be achieved and still be functional in cutting out clay with quasi-turf tires.

I have a B2910 and a Woods GB60 5' boxblade .... it a good match up - it covers my tires (54") by a couple inches on either side .... still .... there are times where if it's packed and fully loaded (and pushing dirt in front of the box) it's almost too much.

That might mostly be because of losing traction more than anything .... I'm running R4's .... which are good .... but they ain't ag's (R1's)

I wouldn't want anything larger.

I have a 5 for a 2710 and unless it's filled up I have not had any issues. Traction is the main problem I have r4's as well

The main concern with a box blade, scrape blade and most other implements is to have the ability to cut your tracks out so you'll want one at least that wide.
