I'm looking at a 165 dsl. Will it handle an 8' tandem disk in sandy loam?

The 165 has the power to pull an 8 ft disc, the only problem might be traction. If you have weight, and good rubber on the rear,a 165 will pull an 8 ft in clay. David

M F bulit a special hitch for this job.
it looks like a 3point boom and has a chain between it and the disc tongue . It makes great traction

Lots of power, but without good weight, you will be lucky to move a hundred pounds of snow with a blade. I found that even with wheel weights, my 65 was very limited with respect to traction when the tires were air filled (tried both snow pushing and cultivating). Liquid filled tires are really a requirement.
