Well here is may take on this (1) 16.9x34's are not enough tire on a 706 let lone a 826 that could be set at stock Hp, on up to and i have seen them at over 120 . (2) even if ya did have all of them on it is not enough weight for tillage , maybe with a set of direct axle mount duals it would be fine . On that size and hp. tractor myself i shy away from clamp on duals as fist off ya have to run the duals at no more the 12 lbs. pressure or ya stand a vary good chance of breaking the axle bolts on the wheels . Where as withdirect axle mounts ya run all the rear tires at the same air pressure and transmit all usesable power to the ground and reduce compaction and add traction. Plus the added weight to the tractor then the 600 lbs would help some BUT not like having 18.4x34 on it would along with the same size in the duals . You would have a larger foot print and a little less compaction with them . As for myself and i know i wall catch a lot of flak over this but for a tillage tractor We load the inboard tire with Cal. and also add wheel weights . My 806 weighs in at over 12000 and there are times she is not heavy enough when we are hauling silage wagons that weigh in at over 26000 lbs. And (3) a 9 shank chisel in my opinion is 2 shanks more then ya want behind a 826 as 7 is just about all the 806 wants and mine is shell we say tweaked just a LITTLE bit . Just my take on this.
