    Posted: 03 Apr 2011 at 7:08pm
Hello, I have recently (in process of buying) bought a 2 bottom plow to put in a foodplot later on and I was wondering what your suggestions were, the plow has the snap-coupler pintle hook circle on the end of it. I want to pull it with my WC, since my WD is 3pt. equipped. I am picking up a drawbar for the WC this spring (didnt have one when i bought it.) Is this plow workable with the WC and what will I need to make it safe, should I modify it to attach an adjustable trailing wheel? Open to ideas, or is it a waste, I havent paid for it yet, but can get it for 150 dollars, and i am a welder. Also what model is it, it IS an Allis Chalmers plow. Thanks guys!

It'd be near impossible to set up for a WC.  You can buy trailing or pull type plows for the WC that would work.  What kind of 3 pt do you have on your WD?  Should be easy to remove it and use the snap coupler plow.  Or buy another WD.  Orange paint is addictive:)

I was thinking a pintle hook on the WC drawbar and making a traiing arm on the rear with a hydraulic cylinder to lift and lower. it would work on the WD though. I really just want to work my WC on her rear steels........ :) What i've been thinking is a pintle hook on the drawbar and modifying the plow frame for a trailing wheel, like a pull behind. I have unlimited steel, and unlimited machine shop use..... Love being a  Navy HT right about now..... :)

I don't think you could use the Allis snap coupler ring with a pintle hook, I'd wager its a little too narrow to drop on.

I guess with a welder, unlimited steel and unlimited time about anything is possible.  But practical is another matter.  Use this plow on a snap coupler tractor and get a pull type plow for the WC.  Just remove the 3 point adapter and snap coupler drawbar and use your WD.  Much easier to work in tight spots like many food plots are with a pick up plow like this than with a trail type plow.  It would be a shame to ruin it so it's not good for anything.

You do have a good point John. I think Mr. Aiken said he has a pull behind for the WC up in Ohio. Maybe I will buy this one pictured as well for those tight spots you are talking about and use it on the WD as y'all suggest to do, are they a pretty good plow to break unfarmed ground and put in a plot?
