I was fortunate that someone located an old front dump truck or heavy pickup blade for $40. I then had it welded with mounting holes for my 300u loader.
Works great, cost of welding was small in my opinion as I have no skill with this.
I do agree regarding caution when the ground is soft. I dug up some of the driveway, and then this started a ripple effect when the front wheels fell into this rut, dropping the blade and causing the next one, and so on.
Counter weight in the back was the first lesson. I have a "salt lick" drum on the 3 point with a drawbar, as well as chains.The whole arrangment works better when the wheels can dig in:)
Nothing like the challenge of the elements in the winter. I like having "real" work to come home to from my desk job.
Good Luck
