I'm looking for information regarding the addition resulting from the uplifting of a mold board plow, 3-6 moldboards in the 4-8 MPH range. I know this will very by soil type but was wondering where I might find a source of such information.
The ultimate goal is, using a front suspension tractor, adjust each side to level out the balast of each wheel, hence I need to know just how much additional weight I need to carry on the opposing axle. Perhaps I should mention this is for a front plow-rear plow combination.
Without compensation, the tractor sort of rocks between the front and opposing rear wheel. I'm guessing a 40:60 four wheel drive tractor might during plowing have a 30:10 and 40:20 weight / axle ratio and want to by softening the suspension on one side of the front axle, level this ratio off to 20:20 and 30:30. (realize these are theoretical numbers and our 40:60 tractor might be 32:68 and closer to 27:5 and 45:23 then our 40:60 tractor.
Despite the great addition to the balast of our tractor with the front plow, we may further need additional weighted balast!
The ultimate goal is to keep soil compaction to a minimum and minimize fuel consumption!

It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
