Looking for some help on what is the best size box scraper for my Massey Fergsuon GC2310TLB? The width of the tractor is 48", so I think a 48" scraper might be too small, thinking about geting 60", but I also wonder if it would be able to handle it. Also stumped on whether to get hinged back or not because I want to use it for plowing in the winter? Any help, info, pics, pricing, manufacturers info are greatly appreciated.

You can get by with a box blade for snow, but they are designed to cut the ground. You will probably start peeling up black snow, if you get my drift.
I have a 66" box and it can stop my 4wd 34 hp tractor. Depends on the ground to a large degree. But, in general, I would think your tractor would be best off with a 48" box. If you ONLY do very light work and don't want to dig the soil with the box you could probably get the 60" to work. But, it will be a struggle to move it when full of gravel, soil, etc. You would probably have to remove scarifiers too.
My opinion is that you should find the heaviest 4' box you can get and not use it for snow. You could get a 5' or 6' rear blade for snow and be more productive with that.

If you have turf tires I would go with the 48".You might be able to move your tires in some. As John said,moving snow with a box can get ugly unless the ground is froze solid or the drive is paved.
