Dry or liquid? An 8118 has 1800 gallon capacity = 18,000 lb payload plus about 5000 lbs for the spreader weight. So expect you've got around 23,000 lbs behind you. Flat ground, you're probably OK. Hilly ground, it'd be iffy. Is your tractor fully weighted? A full rack of weights on the front and 4 pairs of steel weights in the back would help a lot, but then you might run into hp issues. That tractor probably would weigh 15,000-16,000 lbs fully ballasted.
I had 716 slingers until recently - 1600 gallon capacity, but used for dry chicken litter. I pulled them with 4430s without much trouble. I now have an 8018 (older version of what you're considering), and I pull it with a 4840. It's overkill, but I feel a lot safer with 19,000 lbs of tractor on my steep farm.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
