37Chief, My dad took 3 railroad irons, welded them together to make an A-shaped driveway leveler. He hooked a chain to it and leveled our gravel drive with an old JI CASE.
I took my dad's idea a step futher. My A-shaped grader is made from 10 inch I-beams from an old mobile home frame, FREE, and connected it to my 3-pt.
You would be surprised how well it works, not only to level a driveway, but to level a yard. It only removes the dirt from the high spots and puts in in the lower spots without tearing up the rest of the grass, except for the high spots. I control the down force by adding cement blocks to the I-beams. If things are real bad, I put a scoop of dirt down. It does a real nice job to fix a yard. Then I take my 5ft 5000 pound lawn roller to get things really flattened.
Loaned my grader to a neighbor to level up his place. He has your problem, too ruff to mow.
