Land Pride Blade

[bluedunn]

Hi-

Would a Land Pride RB1660 rear blade be suited to a BX1860? I feel like it would probably work ok, but wanted to find out if there may be some issue with this setup.

Thanks!

I'd say you're short on HP to pull it. Thinking it's kinda wide ( 5' ??).

Yea, it's a 5' blade.

I think you'll be fine, just traction limited. Once angled, it wont be all that much wider than your machine.

I used a 6 footer behind my old bx23, it was just traction limited as well.

Bluedunn, I sent you a PM.

I have a BX1880, I Currently have a Land Pride RB0548 It's to small. Barely beyond the rear wheels, when angled it doesn't clear rear wheels. I did have a RB1560 the heavy duty model and i thought it was very heavy for the tractor. I would say the best setup is RB0560, It's a little lighter, but yet a nice big blade.

I own a BX2380 and an RB0560. When angled to the max the blade is a few inches wider than the tires. My BX is not much heavier than your tractor and can pull and push the blade. I never run out of horse power but I quit often run out of traction with my turf tires.
