    Great old 430s mine looks like yours haha, i had to switching engines so i added a briggs 23.5 hp then added a weght box then a easy buck loader bucket. I added a used cab then wired lights 3 led and one in the reat with strobes. Theres a blade 54 inch which I'll be switching cylinders. Love your post

    I found out when i level rock after city's plowing i go backyards it seems to pull more from traction. I use the buck backing up aslo. These are the toughest built old tractors

    You did a good job with what you have. The best implement for this job though would be a pull type scraper with a hydraulic cylinder that adjusts using gauge wheels behind the blade. You do need plenty of room to turn them around though. Ideally the blade (or loader) to push the large piles and the scraper to do the leveling. A 3-point mounted box blade with lever placed in float position should also work pretty well for the gravel. I just bought a 420 for $350 and am working some of the kinks out now. It came with the blade. I plan on a snow blower and box blade for starters.

    350 for a 420 is a steal! As long as you can get the parts that you need.

    Most likely your hills are level but after uses with mine i drive up the gravel then put the blade down and lift the tures up then backup. Its time consuming. Ive done dirt piles that way.

    Looks to me like he had the chains on his tail gate set too long
