How about this. Fellow I worked for had 2 disks that were exactly the same, they were both Sunflower 10ft heavy duty Rock Flex wheel harrows. He had a 1466 with a coleman 4wd kit on it with single standard width long bar short bar tires, and he had a White Field Boss 2-155 2wd with regualar half worn long bar, long bar tractor tires on the inside and new deep tread rice and cain tires on the outside. The 1466 is 140hp and the white is 155hp, neither had any weights except for I think fluid in the tires. The White would outpull it on soft going, that 1466 I kinda didn't like because with the White it would always start spinning when I was heading for trouble and give warning, but that 1466 would go right along and then suddenly sink, and when it did that, it was usually very stuck, but the good news is that these 2 tractors could easily pull each other out. Gives alot better ride on duals over rought ground too. Oh yeah, this gound where I got to test them both isn't clled swamp road for nothing. I tell you what though, I later got to try a 4wd Allis Chalmers 8050 150hp up there with duals and fully weighted, and there is no comparison to those other rigs, it felt almost unstoppable, had 6 new rice and cane tires on it.

They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
