I posted this in attachments but figured I'd ask the LS owners if anyone is using a BB wider than the rear tracks.

I have a chance to pick up a slightly used Woods HB 84 box blade. It still looks new and has all the stickers on it but I have a question. My owners manual recommends a 66" for a BB. Does anyone think an 84" will be too much or should I continue looking for a 66". Tractor is an LS XR3037HC (36.5HP) and rear tire width is 66" so an 84" would be 9" wider than the tires on each side. Price is under 1K. Anyone else uses a box blade 18" wider than their tire tracks?

I am going to buy a back blade and landscape rake. I've looked at 72" and think when they are angled they will just cover the tire tracks.

No replies needed here. Got my answers from the attachment thread I posted. Going to keep looking for a 66" box blade and 72" rake and back blade.
