Yes. I am going to use the existing loader control valve. I believe the blade is 68 inches. Cut it down back in spring and don't exactly recall.

The decal is for the spring tension and just says jammed blade can return without warning. I put these factory decals on it so people who see it think its a factory product. Then when I say I built it they are in awe.

Your tractor with R4 tires may have difficulty pushing a blade that big. A set of chains would enhance performance significantly.

Its powder coated.

Its powder coated.

I think that's a wise choice.
