Get the rear remote with the float function, better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it, maybe even 2. :cool: As far as the box blade, assuming that you are getting a 72" unit. Try to get something that weighs at a minimum of 750lbs. Here is the unit that I would get for...

At 32 PTO horse power and using the 5hp per foot of width rule, it should turn a 6 footer no problem. :cool: I have never cared for the attachment back hoes, even with the 4 point sub frames. Waaaaaaaay to much money for what you get in my opinion. Nothing really wrong with them other than the...

Both tractors should have a suspension seat, and I think the same one. That 60" cutter seems small for those tractors. While the MX5200 has more power, not sure that you would ever need it with your place. The HST transmissions are not the same, the L4060 has an HST+ which is much nicer...

Kubota BX and B model tractors use a 1 9/16 wide ball swivel for the tractor end of the top link. To the best of my knowledge, there is no after market unit that comes with that width ball swivel. All std cat 1 units are 1 3/4" wide. This is mainly a Kubota thing having the narrow end at the...

Thanks for your response, that is a very fair price for a good implement.

For the landscape rake, I would go with either a Land Pride LR3684 (lots of $$$$):eek: or an ETA unit as seen here. http://www.allaboutattachments.com/Everything_Attachments_Landscape_Rake_Version_2.html Lots of different types of grapples that are all good. Sort of need to decide what type...

If you don't mind, what is this setup costing you, did you get the skid shoes? :confused:

If you tell us what implement-implements you are looking at, it is easier to recommend something. You also need to get implements that are matched properly to the size-power of your tractor. Just because it's a name brand doesn't mean that it's the right implement for you. These guys have...

Either one, they are both good units. Get a 7 footer and be ready to go to work. Definitely get the skid shoes, they make all the difference in the world :cool:

:cool:, now, what implements and attachments do you need? A grapple to make that clean up easier, you will need to get a 3rd function for the loader. Any implements that are going to have hydraulics that need to be controlled, considering a top & tilt set for any of your grading, you will be...

Unless someone has extenuating circumstances, these types of implements are simply the best implement for maintaining a drive, plain and simple. ;)

I personally would move up to an L model. That B will get real small real quick. :eek:

This is EXACTLY what you get when it is said, "you get what you pay for". You don't want problems, you need to pay more and get better stuff. The manufacturer's build different levels of implements to many different price points to serve many needs. Research and experience gets you what you...

If you are going to be moving that much dirt, you may want to think about getting a box blade to help level things out. The box blade will act as your counter weight for the loader. ;)

I think that most of the better name implement companies have a down force kit for their 3pt PHD. I have one on my Land Pride PD35. It works very very well. Here is a link to their manual for it. and a few pictures of mine. ;)

The sides on my 7 foot LPGS are 7 foot long. You will be hard pressed to find any that are that long today. Most are about 5 feet give or take 6". The longer the sides, the flater your surface will be.

Hands down a box blade is a better multi purpose implement. If the OP can only afford one implement, then a box blade would be the implement to get. My impression was he was mainly concerned with his 1/4 mile long drive. Then the box blade is not the best implement to have. If he gets either a...

They build most of these implements down to a 4' width. If you need smaller than that, well you may need to go in another direction. ;)

Click on the link that I provided in my first post. The part that is in orange. That shows you all kinds of grapples.

Check out these guys for grapples. A little costly, but about the best units built for the compact tractors that so many of us use. You have trails I presume, need at least a box blade to take care of those, and depending on how good you actually want those trails, you may want a land plane...
