Having worked for a JD dealer and with plenty of experience delivering/demonstrating JD tractors from 70's through the late 80's I'd have to see to believe that a 57 pto HP MFWD of any brand can pull a 14 shank chisel 5-6"s deep in anything but sugar sand but certainly not CLAY. When you state 5-6"s is that measuring from the bottom of gauge wheels to the ground??????? I've witnessed farmers ""inaccurately measure a chisels plowing depth"" by how high the soil was kicking up on the shanks.
Yes I fully understand the advantages of MFWD over 2 WD but I also fully understand the advantages of a tractor weighing over twice as much pulling same size plow.
