Oh yeah, the classic "my tractor can pull more bottoms than your tractor" discussion.

"My all-original Farmall H can pull a 12-bottom IH 800 flex frame set 12" deep in 4th gear in hard clay..." Whatever.

Can't we ever have this discussion SERIOUSLY? Why do some people have to ruin it by telling "noobs" to hook a boat anchor to their tractor and try to plow with it?

Some of you guys can't wrap your heads around the fact that there are different types of ground out there. Some ground plows WAY harder than other ground.

5-14 is a totally different animal than a 5-16. It's not "just two inches" it's two inches TIMES FIVE. 10" is almost a whole bottom.

Besides, this is a 48-year-old tractor, not a brand new Maxxum. Do you really want to be pushing its limits? 706's are not cheap to fix.
