Like the adjustment design on the rippers . Easy and fast 👍 When doing hard ground like that I add weight too the box blade . Good demonstration for showing how tuff it is . 👍 You make great products but still never would buy a used tractor from you 😂
Breakage test. Remove all shanks but for one. Full tractor power and all forces testing the strength of that one shank. I love your new shank height adjustment.
I've never known of a company publishing so much product testing footage.. definitely helps you stand out from the other manufacturers. These videos have also been great advertising for Kubota lol. If I had the money, I'd definitely buy a nice Kubota with some attachments from Everything Attachment
Funny he used to be aNew Holland dealer, I owned 4 New Holland tractors 1 Kubota, small but easy to fix problems out of my kubota. Front differentials was hardest thing to fix.
I love my EA XTreme Duty 72" box blade and never thought it needed any improvements. Until I saw this video. Now I want new ripper shanks with that cool adjustment design, beats pins hands down
Ted, I love your videos! My family and I are moving to a 19 acre ranch in Alexander County in just over two weeks, where I will be taking ownership of a 1960 Oliver 550 with four PTO attachments. First on the agenda, will be to cut two long driveways and pave them with gravel. Let my “retirement” begin!
The final prediction version of the ripper shank holders and adjustment is even better than what he shows here. They show it in their Friday Factory video.
You're absolutely correct, Brian! You can count on EA to test multiple prototypes to make sure we have it dialed in just right, before offering it to you guys! There's a big difference between looking good on paper and achieving optimal results when steel hits the dirt. Thanks for watching and commenting!!
I say, take the four outside ripper shanks off and just run the center two for now, If you're just wanting to test them for strength/durability? Maybe just the outside two, in order to put maximum side loading for strength/durability test? Not 100 % sure, but either way I'd be experimenting a lot more just to see what that bad boy would do!... cool concept though.
Ok I’ll give ya, I’m not a fan of the notched style shanks but your design definitely looks super easy to adjust and I really like how you’ve got the retainer pins secured by chains so they can’t fall out and get lost.
Ted/Nate thanks for the video. It certainly looks like a very solid concept with a far easier adjustment system. The subsequent testing will finalize the tip configuration for maximum penetration and being naked if NO PROBLEM at all!!!! Thanks again for all your work on constantly improving GREAT products.
I have gotten a lot work done with my EA box blade. Very solid design. You have to be careful turning with the ripper shanks down. Figured I would be ok given my sandy soil, but I bent one shortly after getting the implement. I really like the new design of notched shanks, much easier to adjust.
Question, Have you as a designer considered making a real stout/heavy toolbar especially designed for large powerful deep-running ripping shanks without the dirt box, just the toolbar alone. It appears that the box causes the shanks to rise up and ride over the pavement instead of continuing to dig in and under.
I might not have a tractor. One thing that I notice about this company that they make sure they have a quality piece of equipment before they release to the public.
Great video. Great job on the new box blade. Do a side by side demo of adjusting the ripper shanks from the old style to the new style. I think that will really show how much easier and faster you are getting back to work.
Definitely not the tests I'm used to seeing 😂 everyone always finds the most ideal conditions to show something working. These guys... ramming on roots and ripping up blacktop. Proving the quality for sure.
My first thought is--- Right next to the slots that are cut in your box frame---- Cut another row of slots that are at more of an angle.. That way you can change the pitch of your teeth for different jobs... You could hang them vertical in the set up you have now, or move your teeth over to the next hole that is on a 15 degree angle so the teeth will dig a little more aggressive. Just by putting your top slot all the way forward, and the bottom slot all the way to the rear. Just a thought.... Or even better, you can just make your bottom slot oversized just like the top with another drop in pin; and you can change the angle of the teeth by either putting your pin in front of the tooth or behind........... Hell, I guess you could just sell another set of teeth at a different pitch--- lol. Sold.
Is there a reason that box blades aren't designed to add weight to them if you need it for hard packed dirt? Like the suit case weights? I've never seen it done so am just wondering.
If you've got the rippers down all the way, and the top link short, and it still won't cut... You need a bigger tractor. I'm in NC building artificial soccer fields, and our 42,000 pound komatsu D61 wouldn't cut some of the dirt using the blade as a plow! It lifted the whole front of the machine in the air. Had to get the PC360 to scratch it. Sometimes a box blade just isn't enough is what I'm saying.
Man, at the 15:20 mark, it was picking up a lot more than just a small chunk, it was lifting a massive section of that asphalt even beside and behind the tractor. Great job Ted...and nice example of the power of that Kubota too.
I’d definitely love to try that and the land plane on my road and yard . I have a bx2380 and I think it would work great on my very dry uneven yard and very pot holed road.
Watching you tear up that asphalt, makes me wonder if you were a little demon where you grew up. Reminds me of a story of two brothers up in North Pole Alaska who played snap the whip with their 4x4, a long chain and the neighbors beat up old car... I understand the neighbor cried when he saw what they had done to his car.
Are these new shanks comparable to the AR450 shanks I have on the box blade I just purchased or are these only for the small shank version? I mean size-wise. Will they come in 25 pound large shank version?
A very good point. I think we should convince the tractor makers to switch over to Only Hydraulic Top Links. The days of Screwing are over except for fun. I'm sure that they're already exist hydraulic cylinders that are the right length to swap in for the turnbuckles.
With locked rear, only two factors allow the axle not to go straight line. #1. Is appreciable difference of the circumference the two rear tires (tire STAGGER to circle track racers) #2. Is traction breakage of one wheel or the other (excess tire wear to racers)
LOL, Destructive Testing During Prototyping, LOVE IT!!!! How do you know what it will take unless you break it? This didn't break ..... Yet. Keep it going.
Yeah, the bucket with a Wicked Toothbar would be the preferred weapon of choice! It is here: www.everythingattachments.com/EA-Wicked-Tooth-Bar-for-Tractor-Buckets-p/eta-wtb.htm He was just looking for a way to put some crazy stress on those tines!
Yes sir! Here's the page, and our current model includes all of the features shown in the video! www.everythingattachments.com/Box-Blade-Box-Scraper-For-Compact-Tractors-p/eta-xd-cbb.htm
I love how you run things to a breaking point before you try to sell it ....I have a plasma and some ar 500 where I work ....the side bending sucks the most....I have made some shanks ......laminated is the bomb ❤
It is the newest, Wicked enhanced version of our Xtreme 30-70. The visuals on our website are currently a work in progress, but the prices include our new patent pending, easy adjustable, 100% Hardox AR450 ripper shanks. Details here www.everythingattachments.com/XTreme-Duty-Box-Blade-For-Tractors-p/eta-xdbb-30-70.htm
The shape of a standard ripper shank draws the box blade into the ground. Your toothed design creates a lot of extra resistance and doesn’t draw the blade into the ground. Good experimentation though. 👍😄
I'd like to be part of your product development test team! It has to be fun trying to tear shit up! 😁 Anyway, all bullshit aside, that seems to be a badassery built in box blade.
I'm by far a tractor/boxblade expert, but I have a feeling that my box blade on asphalt I'm pretty sure I'd break something. Not that my old tractor could do anything like this.
Thanks! These ripper shanks would rip apart many other box blades. These are patented shanks and designed for EA box blades, which are designed to take the stress they can transfer to the box blade. Thanks for watching and commenting!
EverythingAttachment I used to run one for Pratt industries paired with a paladin FFC bucket grapple and it was a tough machine I’m ready to see Ted push it to its limits
I'm a fan of your implements, but the smooth ramp surface on standard ripper shanks are that way for a reason. They pull themselves down into the ground. Pretty important on the back of a tractor with no hydraulic downforce. Asphalt ripping is pretty gimmicky.
This was the first version prototype and we prefer real world testing. In this video, Ted learned and has made some changes. It's gonna be awesome!! Thanks for watching.
Id like to see another company who torture tests their products like you guys. it's a true testament to the standards you require before you ship a product out your door.keep up the good work a wicked box blade is in my near future
I like the quick adjust but the jagged teeth just don't make sense. A ripper shank needs to be smooth like a plow or you're wasting HP. This isn't a grapple where you want to hold something. You want a nice smooth wedge action to multiply your force. Basic engineering principles. Make the wicked name about the strength and durability, not about the looks! Weld on a nice piece of hardox in place of a normal tooth and you'll have a sweet ripper.
I agree, definitely not needed. However those teeth would be handy depending on how it’s being used. Teeth would likely be better at ripping roots. I use ripper shanks on my LP land plane at least once a week and a tip broke off a shank when it was nearly new. That’s some tough Japanese metal too so I like the change in tooth design. I destroy the Chinese metal rippers very quickly.
Hello, I'm not saying worst, but less good. This might be the less good episode yet. I work R&D for composting machinery. I understand the no paint no handles thing. But it's the unprepared testing méthode I can't appreciate. It's as if bringing out a youtube video on time was more important than the machinery business. Cheers from Belgium.
When it absolutely, positively needs to be destroyed...Give it to Ted. Very nice and well built box blade with the wicked rippers.
That's absolutely true! Thanks for commenting and following along, sir.
Like the adjustment design on the rippers . Easy and fast 👍 When doing hard ground like that I add weight too the box blade . Good demonstration for showing how tuff it is . 👍 You make great products but still never would buy a used tractor from you 😂
I used to cringe watching you guys beat on that equipment. Now, I just nod my head and say to myself “man, they build some tough ass equipment”.
Breakage test. Remove all shanks but for one. Full tractor power and all forces testing the strength of that one shank. I love your new shank height adjustment.
This is what America is about. Building wicked quality products at a fair price.

Remind me never to lend Ted the keys to my tractor. Impressive; both your attachment and the Kubota taking that pounding against the asphalt!

If you test all your products like this, I will not be afraid to buy anything from you!! Awesome testing.
Awesome! I have an EA box blade and thought there couldn’t be any improvements, but, wow those new rippers are awesome!
It’s been a while since I’ve looked at something I didn’t think I could break.
Would have been interesting to take few rippers out and see how well it will ripped up the asphalt.
Love this company, these videos sold me on two implements already, looks like I might need another soon!

That is a great idea. Especially if it has a way to add weight for greater downward force.
It's called a subsoiler.
@@justanotheridiotredneck No, a subsoiler has/uses a spade/blade, I am speaking about a shank as is used with box blades.
I might not have a tractor. One thing that I notice about this company that they make sure they have a quality piece of equipment before they release to the public.

I add suitcase weights to mine. It works great.
Man, at the 15:20 mark, it was picking up a lot more than just a small chunk, it was lifting a massive section of that asphalt even beside and behind the tractor. Great job Ted...and nice example of the power of that Kubota too.
And the shanks still looked brand new afterwards!! Thanks for watching. #StayTuned
That thing is super Wicked! So please let us know when they are available.
Thanks! We sure will. Thanks for watching!
If Ted can't break it , nobody can!
I need 7 of those rippers for my JD heavy duty box blade. The rippers that came with it bent like pretzels. Chip, Mt. Calm, Tx.
Those rippers are great. I ant wait till you have them available so i can get a new box blade and land plane.
I’d definitely love to try that and the land plane on my road and yard . I have a bx2380 and I think it would work great on my very dry uneven yard and very pot holed road.
Nice R & D work!
Watching you tear up that asphalt, makes me wonder if you were a little demon where you grew up. Reminds me of a story of two brothers up in North Pole Alaska who played snap the whip with their 4x4, a long chain and the neighbors beat up old car... I understand the neighbor cried when he saw what they had done to his car.
your slogan should be “your tractor breaks first” lol
that's pretty wicked. You better get Travis some extra phones to take all those orders on
Best product testing videos ever.
So when will this be available to order?
TED 2020, things are going to get wicked👍. At the 7:00 mark I almost spit my drink out I laughed so hard. Raw and uncut👍
Are these new shanks comparable to the AR450 shanks I have on the box blade I just purchased or are these only for the small shank version? I mean size-wise. Will they come in 25 pound large shank version?
A hydraulic top link would be very useful on that
A very good point. I think we should convince the tractor makers to switch over to Only Hydraulic Top Links. The days of Screwing are over except for fun. I'm sure that they're already exist hydraulic cylinders that are the right length to swap in for the turnbuckles.
All you need is a double action cylinder. And a set of remotes atop the 3 pt.
Ill be in the market for a box blade here sometime soonish. I already have a wicked grapple. I absolutely love it!
Trying to turn with differential engaged is counter productive.
With locked rear, only two factors allow the axle not to go straight line. #1. Is appreciable difference of the circumference the two rear tires (tire STAGGER to circle track racers) #2. Is traction breakage of one wheel or the other (excess tire wear to racers)
Hydraulic top link will be on my new tractor when I get it. Looks like quality in those rippers!!!
Hydraulic top link sure would make your job easier! I'm sure you've got one laying around somewhere!
That is one hell of a product!
Hey Ted, did your buddy ever find out what happened to his pavement?
Shhhhhhh... What pavement? hahahaha
maybe some weight for down pressure? not sure your the pro's, the ripper's are tough though:)
LOL, Destructive Testing During Prototyping, LOVE IT!!!! How do you know what it will take unless you break it? This didn't break ..... Yet. Keep it going.
Insane. That is one tough built box blade.
Well if you wanted to stress test it you had the right guy. I think you would get more done quicker with the front end loader on the machine.
Yeah, the bucket with a Wicked Toothbar would be the preferred weapon of choice! It is here: www.everythingattachments.com/EA-Wicked-Tooth-Bar-for-Tractor-Buckets-p/eta-wtb.htm He was just looking for a way to put some crazy stress on those tines!
did these ever actually get released? been looking for a box blade and would absolutely love to get my hands on one of these.
Yes sir! Here's the page, and our current model includes all of the features shown in the video! www.everythingattachments.com/Box-Blade-Box-Scraper-For-Compact-Tractors-p/eta-xd-cbb.htm
not too sure if the new shanks dig as well as the old design (look to not dig as well) but the adjustability is awsome.
DAYUM!!!!! At 12:17, did he say "we kinda wanna hit it hard so we dont break anything"? Lol!!!!
Well, how’d the shanks fare?
Well Ted, I would call that a pass. You guys build some cool stuff that's for sure and built to last.
Hope that was your road. They did that to Heemeyers road and look how that turned out.
I love how you run things to a breaking point before you try to sell it ....I have a plasma and some ar 500 where I work ....the side bending sucks the most....I have made some shanks ......laminated is the bomb ❤
is this the EA XTreme Duty Box Blade For Tractors with 30-70 HP or EA severe XTreme Duty Box Blade For Tractors with 50-75 HP?

You need to make and market a top link with a wheel to adjust it easier
That is one tough set of ripper shanks
I would love to have the bolt on wear plates on the end plates.
Loved that "Wicked" laugh: 15:50
I think that's where the North Carolina earthquake started from
The shape of a standard ripper shank draws the box blade into the ground. Your toothed design creates a lot of extra resistance and doesn’t draw the blade into the ground. Good experimentation though. 👍😄
Hook a chain around a ripper and pull on it.
6:55 LMAO I got a nice laugh out of that. Thanks.
🤣
lets get outta there man!
How much did new back tires cost you? That's a mean box ripper.
Ted, when are you going to get a hydraulic top link? Work smarter, not harder. Yes, a good one will take the stress ok. Love your attachments!
I'd like to be part of your product development test team! It has to be fun trying to tear shit up! 😁 Anyway, all bullshit aside, that seems to be a badassery built in box blade.
Things you won't do with a Land Pride or Titan...
Looks Tuff and Strong...
I hope those rippers will be interchangeable with the box blade I just received from you a couple of weeks ago. By the way mine is a beast.
That looks awesome
I'm by far a tractor/boxblade expert, but I have a feeling that my box blade on asphalt I'm pretty sure I'd break something. Not that my old tractor could do anything like this.
So you've made the ripper shanks to where you cant fit them in any other box blade. Way to go fellas.
Thanks! These ripper shanks would rip apart many other box blades. These are patented shanks and designed for EA box blades, which are designed to take the stress they can transfer to the box blade. Thanks for watching and commenting!

"differential LOCK engaged"
only if you see the right rear spinning at the same rate as the left rear
You need a hydraulic top link will be easier..
NEED A MAHINDRA
I need one saving up my pennies for one love my wicked grapple so much better than chinese junk tough as hell
Glad you love the Wicked, man! Thanks for the business and we'll be glad to set you up with a Wicked Boxblade when you're ready!! #StayTuned
if that were chinese it would be a pile of scrap iron
