Now that I found a brush hog, next piece I can use for sure is a box blade, so here's my question:
for the 2305 size subcompact, have any owners here used a 4' box blade on their tractor? and did you go with a model made for subcompacts or bigger size tractor? Wondering if the heavier,taller standard size 4' box blade will work ok or will it lift high enuff on a 2305 to transport to work location without dragging/scraping?
If you have used one specically made for subs, which model is it and how did you like results? My main use will be leveling dirt and rough soil prep for seeding new areas in park.
I found a 4' bush hog brand BBC48- seems like the predecessor to their sbb48 BB for subs. anyone have experience with one of these?
Oops forgot to throw in this pic- seat-view while driving a load of sod I cut out with greenie. that bucket was full to bottom but it picked it up just fine.

I have a standard 4' boxblade and it works pretty good in my mostly rock and clay. It lifts high enough for transport and does a great job of leveling. I can drive up my ramps onto the trailer without it hitting the ground. The one thing I found is it's better to have a load in the bucket to keep the front end planted otherwise you can lose traction in a hurry.
You may want to check with McGrew Equip. they sometimes have them in stock. They had a bunch of them when I got mine..
