Good box scraper with hydraulic rippers for 35 HP tractor (27 HP at the PTO)?

I recently purchased a used B3350, which is 35 HP (27 HP at the PTO). I'd like to get a box blade that has hydraulic rippers, but I'm not finding many options. There's the Land Pride HR2572, but their website claims it's for 30+ HP tractors (which I'm assuming they're specifying at the PTO, since it is a three point attachment). I'd be just shy of that at 27 HP. While I still me be able to operate this to my satisfaction, it still would be the biggest implement I own (all fall in the 60-66" range). So I'm curious if there are slightly smaller options. Or is there a way to add hydraulic rippers to another box blade, such as the BB1260? Or would you just go with the HR2572? Thanks for any advice.

They would be basing the hp as engine hp since it doesn't have a pto. You will probably be more limited by the weight of the B3350 pulling it vs using a heavier L series.

Ah, yeah that was stupid of me to say. Definitely not a PTO implement. So I guess I'm now really just looking for recommendations for smaller box scrapers than the HR2572 that also have hydraulic rippers.

I think a former member on here retrofitted hydraulic rippers to a boxblade. Was it Sled dog? Can anyone remember who it was?
