Oddly I’ve never seen any of these with dual rear wheels. Anyone out there ever done it?

Yes, have a set of clamp-ons for the 6080, haven't been on in years though. Dad used them in the spring when planting and fall pulling wagons.

Since most of them were not heavy tillage tractors,most never got dualled. I have clamp on duals for my 45 and used to use them when it was the big horse on the farm. My 8070's grin and wink at the 45 when they drive by.

I figured someone had done it but just haven’t seen pictures of any. I’m sure it makes for a nice looking tractor along with adding traction on a 2 wheel drive. Our 20’ AC 2200 disk would be 1 implement that it would probably help with traction. Don’t have duals for my XT either. Just was curious.

Mine had dual hooks on when I bought it, but no duals.

The beauty of duals when discing plowed ground, is the disc can be operated a little shallower and still wipe out the tractor tracks. A win-win situation !!

We used to spring plow,harrowgate then disc in dry fert and harrowgate again. The duals were a big help in staying on top and keep traveling.

A D-17 IV gasser would handle a 13' 6" 200 series disc much easier with 16.9 x 28 duals on the rear.

Not the same but when I got my 185 came with duals, have never been on since I got it, just use it for light work.

Cousin that lives a mile away still has the 6060 his dad bought new. Had 1804x28's when new. Uncle Dan had clamp-on duals for it. The son, Doug, got a pair of 18.4x34 tires, wheels, and centers from the junkyard, probably from a 6080, that it now wears. Don't think he has duals for it now though.

That will step up road gear for him !! 6060's were pretty slow with 28 inch rubbers.
