60" Box Grader / Plane on BX22

[ehenry]

All, I'm looking at a 60" box plane/grader to use on my driveway. Its used and I can get it for a really good price. My question is...to ya'll think it will be too much for my little BX22 to handle?

You are going to be asking a lot from it !!! I have a 48" on the back of my B7100 - going down hill, it is the cats azz - uphill, I have to take very light bites!

I take it you drive is gravel? If so, depending on the deal - get it and try, if it does not work, you should be able to sell and move down a notch!

Hokie, that is probably what I'm going to do. I can get it for half the price of a new 48".

I've also been kicking to ball around about selling both my BX22 and B7300 and getting a 30/40 horse machine. Just not sure I want to part with them. I really like having two tractors.

I have 3.....so I know what you mean!!! One is a grass cutter, another cuts grass too and hauls small stuff and box blades.

And the bx works for anything else!!!

You might want to check the weight. Some 60" grader scrapers might be to heavy for your tractors to lift. My 48" Land Price Grader Scraper is all I would want to lift and carry with my BX2370.
