The smallest I would consider for a 53 HP PTO is 6ft. Also, they are more plentiful and lower cost. When I bought my 4066R, I bought a 6ft for less than $1,000, but never used it because it was too small. I finally sold it a couple of years ago after I bought a 10ft brush hog. I have 52 PTO HP.

Here is a nice 6ft for $1400 John Deere 613 72" Brush Hog Cutter - farm & garden - by owner - sale
