Land Pride RB1560 or RB1572??

[Huntthomas]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has any info about the Land Pride RB1560 60" long and the RB1572 is 72" long. It will be attached to my L2800 tractor. They say that it should extend beyond the rear wheels? The 60" barley does it, but the 72" does and then some. I can pick up the 60" for $400 new and the 72" for $500 new. I will be using it for dirt and also snow.Im not sure about the prices? Any info would be great. Thanks Tom.

You probably want the longer one. Remember that when it's angled the coverage will be less.

I've had a landpride 1584 for several years and I can tell you the weak point is the pin holes where you put the pin thru to swivel the blade. These holes elongate and then the pin will not go into the hole next to it. I had to replace that mount (not cheap ) and I'm goint to weld a plate underneath and make it twice as thick at least , and drill the holes through the plate with a hole saw. Otherwise it is good. I don't know what you are going to use it for, but for snow you'll want it out beyond the wheels if you tractor has the power to pull it.

Definitely at least the 72" and maybe consider an 84". As noted you want it to be wider than your tracks even when it's angled.

I have not had a good experience with the one Landpride implement I own, FWIW.

I have a LandPride 3584 rear blade and believe me...you'll want to go with the heavy duty model. Unless, of course...you're getting into rocks, serious ditching, etc.

Glad I got the 84"; came in real handy last winter when I was plowing driveways and parking lots.

Think I paid $1000 for my 3584...new. Well worth it.

You may end up regretting buying the light duty 15 series. Dirt work in particular can be very hard on the stress (swivel) points. The 25 series is at least 50% tougher than the 15 series.
I have owned my 3596 for 17 years, and I am very hard on it when pushing over trees and stumps.
