First and formost, when you spread lime, there will be a lot of dust in it and it will look like a fire is there. When I used to spread lime, it was in second gear, high side at 2300rpm on the engine, going about 15-20MPH, that was 20 year ago, before all the high speed, high capacity spreaders were brought out. so everything you describe is normall in the application of limestone. Now as for the salt spreader idea, yes it will work, but you will have to do a lot of figuring to get the correct application rate with out overlapping too much or not overlapping anough. And then it is gets kinda fun when you are putting 2-3 tons of lime per acre and you have a 200-300# spreader hopper you are using. just my opinion.
