Whiskey, Tango, Foxtrot
Local guy usually builds a couple a winter like that. He basically cuts the arms off, puts them on the front, builds a hitch between them. Then find an old semi trailer axle for some spindles and tires. The best ones are built so both tires will raise and lower together, but one can also be raised indepedently to tilt the blade. A two point hitch also works better than a drawbar hitch, as well as gives you some extra clearance to dump muddy stuff or weeds.

They aren't nearly as fancy as the grader plowboy linked, but for stuff other than grading roads or trying to windrow material they work fine. Other than lots and lots of welding wire, gas and time, they are fairly cheap too.
