The added wire does not have to go in a straight line, 
 
If both 80 and 160 meters are needed, you could use a trap at the end of the wire now in use. Then enough zig-zag wire to resonate it to 160 meters.   Loading coils in the, current "near end" wire,  are more inefficient.

 I cannot go longer on the top wire as it would extend over my property boundary, hence the loading coil.73 Max M0GHQ
