Welcome to the Break Free Homestead TH-cam channel, in today's video I assemble and review a 5.5ft Yard Tuff lawn tractor landscape drag.
This Landscape Drag can be used to level Gravel, Driveways, and yards.
I am towing the implement with a Husqvarna YT18542, it being a rear wheel drive hydro-static transmission I ran into some issues with traction or getting caught on larger roots or debris in the dirt. If you were to tow it with a larger unit or had 4x4 you might be able to power through the roots.
You can pick one up at Tractor supply or a nearly identical model by Titan Ramps, if you use this links it helps supports our channel but doesn't cost you any extra.

Great video. Exactly what I needed. Sorry that some people don't seem to appreciate the time you took to make this video. Great job.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the support, haters will always hate. 🤙🤙🤙🤙
I bought one of these drags. Thanks for the video. Suggestion…get yourself a low cost pull behind landscape rake to clean up the trash first.
I just purchased one of these and going the drive bolts thru the front bar and use it rip up the the soil and the back bar will smooth it out. But I'm using it to smooth out a dirt road. Thanks for sharing and seeing how your worked out.....
I used behind an ATV on a dirt drive that had some serious spring time ruts. It is not fast but it does work vast improvement.
Dedication will bring the green. Nice work
I see you're spinning some. When I had my snowblower on my tractor, I filled the rear tires with RV/plumbing antifreeze and it's incredible how it helped with traction for doing yard work in the summer too.
I rotated the wheel so the valve stem was on top, removed the valve core, used a small pump and reduced the hose to something that would fit loose in the valve stem so that air could come out around the hose as I pumped liquid in. My last section was a short section wire insulation that I stripped off a 12/2 electrical wire. I filled the tired all the way to the valve stem.
I think I managed to put 3.5 jugs per tire, so that's 28 litres in total or 28 Kg, that's roughly 60 lbs. Might not sound like a lot, but the weight is right on the tire where it's needed.
Oh wow! Thanks for the tip Marc we might have to check that out. It can get pretty slippery sometimes with these turf tires.
Thanks for supporting our channel!
I wonder how the antifreeze would react with tire tubes
@@lyquidsnake4202 Not sure long term, but RV/plumbing antifreeze being mostly alcohol based and non-toxic, it's probably not as bad as some harsher chemicals.
Thanks for taking the time to make the video. Not sure how that patch turned out in the end, but I think I would cut a T fence-post to 6 inches segments and bolt 8 of them to the front the front rail. They would dig 4 inches deep to scar the soil, pulling up more dirt, which would be leveled and planed by the rear rail. I'm sure it'd be harder to pull but it would make all the difference in filling the low spots and leveling. Just a thought...
For sure, that would probably help. This mower with the traction, and wet conditions aint pulling anything extra here😂
I used one of these to level my gravel parking area and get out grass weeds it works but you really need to have the weight to the front. For the price it works well and I was using a 20HP Sears tractor.
Nice, the weight is pretty key but balancing it out to get traction is also a challenge.
I have one that I have used in the dirt and on gravel and it’s a trial and error thing! Moving the brick to the back for less digging and to the front to grind in deeper! Hope it helps.
Nice video, I have like 5 acres of land that was a corn crop for decades that I'm trying to smooth out, and I have ripped it up in the fall now wanna go in while the topsoil is soft and try to drag and smooth it out, been looking at this and the "chain link fence" ones, seems that this one will be the way the go. Great video value.
Thanks
Welcome
Thinking about doing the same to my yard this fall or next spring. I’m bringing in about 40 yards of screened topsoil to spread out.
Dina, that's awesome. Hopefully soon there will be some loam coming into the backyard soon. It should make it easier to level.
Spacers are for the center cross members to get them a little higher for you blocks to clear the dirt this thing collects.
I was going to add that note as well. It appears they work as stops for the pavers/blocks so they can't slide off the device. I am using the flat pavers.
Lovin g the cheaper approach time and effort gets results
Thanks for the support!
Came to check the video, 'cause I'm looking to one of this on Ebay... I guess, I'll skip it. ;-)
Thanks for watching!
i agree the directions are lacking. could have come with a way to secure the blocks too but so far mine works great.
Good to hear! Sometimes you just gotta jimmy rig things 🤷♂️🤷♂️
Let us know what what application you are going to use this with in the comments! Make sure you check out our other video with the Drag on a different type of application.
Asking a bit much to try and level something that's full of sticks and debris. Run a small york rake or rent a harley rake first.
Haha I know it's kinda a stretch but just wanted to see what i could do with something affordable.
The hard part was to not destroy the yard with something too heavy.
Nice video mate👍 One tip, try going slower (half your speed max) when grading/dragging. It will eliminate the bounce in the drag and provide a smoother finish.
No way! Thanks for the tip, I will have to try that next time!
How do you think this would drag and level out some small rock on a driveway?
It would probably work okay if you have plenty of material.
That trailer at the end of vid caught my eye. Where’d you get that?
Haha she ain't perfect but got the job done a the time! I bought it off a guy selling it in front of his house for $40!
Interesting, I’d love to level my yard and this seems to fit the bill. I thought about doing it by hand by my yard is 15K sq ft.
Any chance you can test this by spreading soil/sand over existing grass to see how it performs? I have a nice established lawn and just want to level it.
I will see if I can get one up before the snow falls! Thanks for the comment Ryan.

- For what it's worth, use a pallet! Pure and simple, particularly if the lawn is already established. The pallet will be less intrusive/destructive. ;-)
Tip: Use the pallet side that only has 3 boards.

You said you used discounts to buy it. What discounts we're those?
Jon, thanks for watching. I used the Google chrome extension Honey. It will run possible coupon codes through and select the one for the best discount. I just did it for the drag to see what they have today and there isn't one today, only free shipping to their stores.
I have the same setup for a gravel driveway. My problem is my tires dig in when I add any weight to it. Did you have that problem?
Basically i got stuck in the mud if i added too much weight 😂
I had the same problem with my JD mower/tractor going uphill on the driveway. I am going to get a pin hitch adapter for my ATV and see if 4WD will make the difference.
will this work on gravel..
It should, I have seen some videos of people using it on gravel. I however have not. I think how great it works will depend on the weight on the drag, size and quantity of material you are attempting to spread.
@@BreakFreeHomestead ok thanks because I been doing it with a metal landscape rake for last 15 years on a customer drive way and now that I'm old ..,😂. .. there gotta be an easier way..
Where can I buy this
we got ours from tractor supply! www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/yard-tuff-55-ft-atv-lawn-tractor-landscape-drag-1232748?cm_mmc=feed-_-GoogleShopping-_-Product-_-1232748&gclid=Cj0KCQiAqbyNBhC2ARIsALDwAsAiWbt3ao4qi2lDTLWckLJCsIiaUYbXONeO5rbEhq9gFt6Eqe2uSb0aAlriEALw_wcB
I have the bigger model, more part got digger teeth and yes the directions sucked and im also not sure about the spacers or the purpose for those.
Nice, are you towing it with something bigger?
Thanks for supporting us!
@@BreakFreeHomestead 18 HP troy built lawn tractor, i just got it together have not dragged it yet, my road is too rocky, it needs work and i want to top it with a good layer of gray cold pack gravel. hopefully to help with running during wet times and plow damage from winter
I don't see the benefit
It's tough to find a drag that can be pulled by a lawn mower without getting stuck. This is about the only option.
...ALL ABOUT THE MUSIC. ...WORK ON IT!
Thanks for the support 🤙
It is all about using the right tool for the job….and this is NOT IT! This is a waste of time and money!
Thanks for supporting the channel!
Looks like waste of money to me.
