Mountain Mike unpacks it, points out features (drop gate, tool tubes, receiver hitch, fork slots), notes a pin-fit issue solved with a spare part, fills it with rocks/dirt, and reports noticeably improved rear stability versus his box blade. Good for L3400 owners weighing cheap aftermarket ballast options over tire fluid.
Mountain Mike discloses he was sent this product by the manufacturer to review, so expect a generally favorable, sponsored hands-on rather than an independent comparison.
The included top link pin was slightly oversized and would not fit, so Mountain Mike used a spare pin from his box blade instead.
Mountain Mike says the ballast box worked so much better than his box blade, adding far more stability than he expected.
It has a sliding drop gate for emptying, welded tool tubes for racks and shovels, a 2 inch receiver hitch, and cutouts for forks.
Tire ballast is expensive and he gets holes in his tires regularly, so the ballast box is a much cheaper way to add rear weight.
