Default 3 point blades

I have a chance to buy two different 3 point hitch blades. The John Deere blade is 5 feet wide and is small category 1 but has the category 0 pins. The gentleman says it is 22" wide at the frame. Model 135 approximately $200. The the other I have no idea what brand it is but it is 4 feet wide and is a category 0. The price is $40. Would the John Deere be too heavy? The 4' one is cheap but really not wide enough... by the way I am putting it behind a 2072. What's the recommendation?? Thanks!

Check and see if your lower links open up enough to get the Deere blade on if they do buy it and try it out. If it was me I’d buy both and then sell the one you don’t like or that won’t fit.

I run a 5 ft brinly on my cubs and it handles it fine. The only thing I see about the JD one is it's not very tall, so if you plan to use it for snow it might not work very well, but it would be great for gravel and dirt. The 4 foot one would be great for a normal GT, but it's a little narrow for a super, though its a great deal

I'd buy which ever one 1) will fit and 2) is built of the heaviest material available. The rear blade that dad put on his H is made for a 100 HP tractor (the H is only 25) and we've bent the pins off the ends before.

New 5' blade! Got it for $200... a little more than what I wanted to pay but it is really heavy duty!

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
