mike I was just cruising through tractor data and it says the draw bar hp rating on your mf 3165 is 43 hp, the weight is 4400 lbs, now yours having a loader and weighted tires I would guess the weight would be at close to 6000. lbs. i'm going to do a search and see if there is a smaller mulcher rated for a 40hp or less machine, the 70" ones I have been able to find all want 85 to 100 hp driving them. I did see a video where one guy took a 5 ft. brush hog took out the pto drive, installed a hydraulic drive with the same 2 blade system, put a skidsteer quick attach on it and it seemed to work well. skidsteer was a 45 hp bobcat. you would have to rig up mounts to fit your loader arms. I will try and find the video. the critical part here is to find a brush hog or mulcher that is rated at or a little less than your 3165.
