I have a 1981 L345DT, I was wondering if anyone has built a spray rig and how big of a tank can you go on the 3 pt. I want to use it for all around spraying and a water supply for control burning. If you have something can I see pics

There are a few dependent factors on size:
Do you have a FEL or Front weights?
How is your terrain, flat, sloped, steep?

Make sure you get a high volume output pump as most PTO sprayer pumps are low volume output, and they won't do much good at putting out fires.

I use several 55gal drums on a small wagon for the job, I found it a lot more stable because we have a lot of steep ground.

Buddy pulls a 250 gallon water tank, has a
Hypro roller pump on pto. Uses it for controlled
Burning.not at all suitable for fire fighting.
For controlled burning a tractor mounted
Tank in my opinion is too small
