Country Line grader blade and imatch need advice

What state are you in? Can you post a pic of the blade?

The County Line back blades are iMatch compatible. Put the bushings on, back up and pick it up.

I have the same blade and an iMatch. Never been a problem.

All I have is the stock photo. I’m in Kentucky.

Thank you this helps me a lot

If your able.

Pull the I match off tractor and take it with you.

Pick the blade it fits the best.

Is your top hook welded or a pin on style on your I Match?

Yup, that's imatch compatible.

There's a "QH" sticker on it. Pretty sure it says Quick Hitch Compatible.

I'm in Ohio. If your be interested in a used one. I have one I'm not sure I need. But I'm not sure what kinda distance you'd wanna travel. 5', already has QH bushings on it.

Yes, the CL blades are made by Tarter right there in Dunnville KY. I don't know if you are considering this blade for snow... if so, I would strongly suggest you reconsider.

I have had 3 different rear blades for my 2520 and found there is HUGE difference in them due to the moldboard shape. I first had an old LandPride that I bought used. Great blade! It was heavy and had a nice, deep curved moldboard shape. The snow really 'rolled' off of it. It was not QH compatible though and couldn't offset so I traded it for a Frontier RB2072. Oh man, not good. The moldboard is too flat for snow! The snow just piled up on it and would not unload. I sold it after a year and bought another brand that has a deep curved moldboard, heavy, QH, and offsets. The tractor is back to flying through snow again. The Country Line is flatter than the Frontier! If not for snow... never mind ;<)

Well I would use it for snow but also for landscaping (garden, etc). The frontier is more expensive and nobody has any in stock. I checked the 3 dealers near by and there been in order for months now. I did notice the moldboard is flat. We don’t get a lot of snow usually… What brand did you buy if you don’t mind me asking. Country line is the only one I can find in stock.

I'm a retired Deere engineer so really wanted to buy Deere. The dealer kept my tractor an extra week doing a service years back and surprised me by installing a JD QH for free!... but then the old LandPride blade couldn't install. I thought the Frontier moldboard looked flatter but would probably be ok. Wow... it just didn't know what to do with snow. Snow just stacked up in front of it (at full angle) until the tractor was done... 50-100ft usually. Sold it in the Spring ($1100 mistake). I then ordered a Rhino 5006 through a JD dealer near me. It was even available in JD green!



Nice deep moldboard and the boom swings with the pull of a pin allowing easy offset.



It too was $1100 but is a joy to use. My tractor flies through the snow again (snow just rolls right off it) and the easy offset makes it possible to widen the snow piles on my 1/4 mile lane throughout the Winter. Pay attention to the moldboard. Hope this helps!
