Power Required to Pull a Two-Bottom Moldboard Plow

Ahhhhhh…..picture.

Yes, I would say ags. Certainly best for traction when plowing. Are the rears filled with air or liquid?

I'm not sure about that. I'll have to ask the dealer I bought it from.

Just put the valve stem near the half way mark and release a bit of air. If your finger is wet, they are liquid filled. If not then not. Smell the liquid, if it smells sweet, then you've probably got Rim Guard in the tires. This is a good thing.

I have a B3300SU 4wd and pull a 2 bottom 14" plow. It struggles at times, without 4wd it would be difficult to get thru the clay

You have the power but like others have asked, can you get that power to the ground? I pulled a two bottom 14 inch Ford 102 rollover plow with a Grand L3240 with 25 pto HP. Now I pull a three bottom oliver rollover with a Grand l5740 with 50 HP pto power. My soil is called sandy loam but it bears a striking resemblance to concrete when it is dry.

Here's a video of the three bottom...

PS both tractors are 4WD with filled rear tires. The bigger tractor also has 642 pounds of cast iron wheel weights. gotta get the power to the ground.
