Will a D-15 series 2 handle a 3 bottom 3 point plow in heavy soil, mostly clay? I know it will pull it in light soil like sand loom, but will it really have the power and traction for heavy soil.

I have pulled a S/C 3X14 behind my D15 Series II in heavy clay soil with no problem (after I put the weights on the rear tires). W/O the weights, it would occassionally loose traction...even with the traction booster operating well. Never tried pulling a 3 point plow with it tho.
