I have a Johnson plow and added a power feeder. . My 2375 versatile needed help pulling it. Now use my neighbors 9530 jd. It pulls it by itself all the time . It also weighs 14,000 # more than my versatile. He has the grade control with rtk and base station. I bought a new tile stringer several years ago and have another old stringer for and wish we had another newer one. Own a jd 410 backhoe with my neighbor. When we do a big job we hire an experienced backhoe and operator just because he’s faster than us.

The tile plow will need a grade control valve and gps or laser receiver. Tractor will need hitch reinforced for a pull plow. I’ve only watched 3pt plows and not a huge fan of those. Trenchers do good work but much higher maintenance.

Mid tech at new Hampton iowa are grade control and tile plow experts. Good to work with.

My tile stringer is pulled by a smaller open tractor and uses the tractor hydraulics for the tilt and table brake. It is one of the better things I’ve bought in my life.
