Trying to figure out what size box scraper and also rear blade to go with for my new GL 5460 ?
The dealer pretty much only sells Kubota or Land Pride implements. I’ll need to finance any that I end up getting , so prefer to have included on contract with the tractor and have a single payment.

For a rear blade, I think it’s mandatory to have offset capability. And unbolting the moldboard to offset isn’t a useful way to offset. Weight is also important. A light blade is near useless.

For the boxblade it should be wide enough to cover the tire tracks.

Same for the blade and I second @jyoutz opinion on offset and weight.

I’m kind of looking at the Land Pride RB2672. Not sure if I can go the extra cost of the RB3772.
