I have a 10ft IH 37 disc with almost new but mismatched blades. I just found a Dunham 8ft. with
rusty but fairly good blades. I would be pulling this with a AC WD. I have about 10 - 20 acres a year to disc for sweet corn and vegetables. Any thoughts on which would be better? Thanks.

I have found any peice of farm eq I sell i regret it even if i have two of the same... I sold my kba disk because I have OLiver 252. but when my MF 180 broke down my MF 165 doesn't like to pull the Oliver very well.....

I have a 6' double row disc of 2 banks of 6 blades and pull it with an 8N. It is matched well since the tractor is basically a 2 plow machine @ 20HP.
To pull a 10' disc it seems to me that you'll need a three plow machine @30HP. I'd go with the 8' tool and be careful of tight turns near sheds!

I think the 8' would be a better match for the WD in plowed ground. I have a 10'6" JD KBA disk that has 22" blades on it, and in plowed ground, if let go in too deep, it will make my MF65 grunt, groan, and slip its wheels. I am attempting to acquire a JD 4030 I have found, to help alleviate the problem (not just for the disk; I need a heavier tractor for handling the baler and wagons, and I'd like to be able to pull a decent size chisel plow). You can never have too many tractors. . . .
