Just a bugger for me getting them on, so let someone else fight with them.
Duals? You just going to run them on the landside?

Thanks Todd!
No, I don't want to run one on the land side. I don't like tilling the garden after plowing. I have to till it twice at least to level it up, and that leaves the soil over worked. Powder nearly. I want to build a small pull type disk. While I am well aware of the machines ability to pull, I think I can build a 5' disk and it will pull it. I'm not going to sock it in 4" deep like a large disk would go. I found a guy on WFM that built one and pulls it with a 140H3. He said it pulls it just fine. Anyway... duals for traction, but mostly to make it ride better. It SUCKS running on plowed ground with a Cub. Small tires and lots of uneven dirt beats you to death. I have a Brinly tandem disk, but it doesn't work for crap. Angle of the gangs is all wrong, can't level it on a sleeve hitch, blades are too small.... just sucks. Probably end up pulling it with something else with a bigger motor.... but I'd like to try it out on the 1050. If all goes well, I'll put that new 12hp in it this winter that I have ready to assemble, but never have.
This is just a pic I found, but it's what I want to build. Copy of an IH disk:
