Box blade too big????

[Highbeam]

I would have just fallen into the steering wheel and bonked my knees on the dash. My HST tractor stops as soon as I lift my foot so I wouldn't have been run over. I belt in more for the rollover potential since I have a lot of ditches. Coming from a bulldozer, I always feel tippy with the skinny wheelbase of the tractors.

well, I am really sorry about misspelling your name - it was an accident and I didn't catch it until I read the other replies and sure enough, I disparaged your good name! sorry. Just wasn't paying attention.

No problem. Happens to us all. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I use the roll over series 7' box blade behind my 135 (45 engine hp and 2wd) and it does ok, it can be too much for the tractor but most often it is just right, I wouldn't want to go bigger on mine. The weight of them is VERY NICE, it's heavy and it will flat out do some digging, flip the teeth down and I can literally bring the tractor to a dead stop if I let them go too deep too quick.
I've used it a few times on my uncles 2020 John Deere and it does alot better behind it, of course it has a few more horse to it than the 135 does.
With a 4wd you shouldn't have a problem with the 7' blade.
