Huskers,
If you are trying to move dirt/grade, I have seen the road crews have a setup like that on the back of a JD310 or Case 580. Its a six way box blade with gauge wheels, they are quite the heavy duty setup.
If you are trying to move snow (like I was), the shoes kept digging into my gravel and I was tearing up the drive way.
Old on here gave me the idea to weld tabs on a 2" piece of well pipe and bolt it over the cutting edge. Works perfect. I have about 5 years on it so far. This would work for spreading out dirt and such. It wouldnt work on tearing up virgin soil. I will try to post a picture tonight. The blade weights 885 lbs according to the manual.
