Hello everyone, I have a MF 1705 and I am looking for a used disc to pull behind my tractor. I live in central Illinois, and I wondered if maybe a few of you might know where I can look for one of these? I have checked Craigs list and the dealers around me but no luck. I hate to buy a new one since I will not be using it very much. Rural king has them, but I really don't want to spend that much. I hope you can be of help.

A 1,433 pound bare weight tractor will not have enough traction to pull a Disc Harrow with 18" diameter pans, the lightest spec Disc Harrow which will disturb the ground.

A PTO powered roto-tiller, while more money, will be effective.
