That's what I'm talking about. Some of those come with an attachment that hooks right in the agitator.. Its about a foot long, has a couple bends in it with short cross bars welded to it and has a rubber wheel that rides on the inside of the funnel. It is a mess when you do it this way--and not real healthy for you or the tractor.

How much do you intend on putting per acre? With you suggesting a drop spreader it must be a really low rate. On our soil type a rate that low isn't even worth the trouble. We generally don't even bother with lime unless we need a minimum of 1,000 lb per acre.
