goblbustr 9 #1 Posted June 17, 2016 Ok fellas, Got a good buy on a Brinly plow but as I have never used one I am trying to find out if my c160 hydro and c120 8 speed will handle it without tearing up my tractors. Any one ever use either of these with a plow? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 23,199 #2 Posted June 17, 2016 You will have no problem using a plow behind either one of those horses. That is what they live for. They are garden tractors. Does it look like this, or close?? You can pull this with a Suburban. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHX?? 51,311 #4 Posted June 17, 2016 Hook up to either and GO!! Experiment with the gearing to find out what combo works best with your tires/soil type. Start with the 8 speed in low range. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Achto 29,170 #7 Posted June 18, 2016 Hydro's are not usually the best choice for ground engagement implements. I would go with the gear jammer (8 speed) instead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
