I would like to purchase a box scraper blade for a Kubota B2320. This would be used mainly for snow removal.Would a 6ft blade be too large? I have a L304
loader and want to keep it on so it would be a rear blade. Tractor Supply blade?
0r ?

I'd go for a rear blade - you can angle them to push the snow berm off to the side. I personally have never seen the advantage of a box scraper for snow removal.

I even prefer my hydraulic angle blade to my box blade in the summer. I use it way more than the box.

Box scrapers are horrible for snow. Stick with the standard angle blade. Box scrapers are only useable in reverse for snow removal.

You can find the angle blades fairly cheap, used, on Craigslist. Someone always has an 8N or 9N they are parting out and want to ditch the blade as well.
