I'm looking for rear weights, as pulling two bottoms in some soils can cause the rear tires to loose traction sometimes. I just gradually raise the plow a bit untill the tractor bights in and then lower the plow back to my set position on the touch-o-matic lever. In open feilds, I've been able to plow in 2nd gear. Although in small gardens I stay in first.
