How big of a Box Blade will my 2520 handle 5 or 6?

I have a 5' and I think it fits the machine perfectly.
It covers my tracks, and I don't want an earth engaging implement to be much bigger than that.

Yup, stick with a 5' unless you are only going to use it in sand.

You could go with the 6' and would be glad you did if you were only spreading things with it. The 5' would work better if you are really digging in with it .... All depends on what you are going to do with it.

Fountain42,
I have a BB2060 for my 2520. I use it to do a lot of tasks. When scarifying or moving a lot of dirt, the tractor can reach a culminating point where the differential lock may or may not make the difference. You'll want to purchase a 60in instead of a 72in.

You may have a task in mind, right now, for your BB. A BB has an infinite number of uses that you can search for on this site, and those uses may not be in your mind right now---- but you will limit your own future capabilities if you buy "too big". Go w/ the 60in.
