Tracked vs tires on Mahindra?

[antryan]

Hi,
Does anyone know if there is a track that might fit a Mahindra 85P? I'm assuming a third party might manufacture a track kit that might fit but I haven't found any online.
Would a tracked or quadtrac type system assist with towing on 25/30 percent steep slopes?

Why do you have Can-am listed as your tractor if you have a Mahindra 85P?

I am considering a tractor for purpose of towing a log loader and doing forestry work.

What tires are on your 85P? Bulbous radial forestry tires may be what you need.

Is your 2,090 pound Loader on or off your tractor?

Nice to have you on TBN with us antryan. Have you checked Soucy for a pod kit? Tracks will give you better tractor but also raise your tractor and its center of gravity a bit. Sorry I can't give you more info than that.

I don’t think a 85P has enough butt to roll tracks and a heavy 3 pt attachment.
