 Topic: Need B plow mounting pictures
Posted: 07 Apr 2011 at 7:15pm |
talked to Chuck Jones in Idaho Falls, ID tonite who was on YT looking for a B plow. He has a two way plow setup that came off of a C and is trying to get it mounted up on his B but is missing some of the right mounts. Was wondering if someone had some pictures of a B plow all mounted up with the correct mounts including pictures of the B depth control lever etc. I talked to his daughter who is more internet savvy and told her that I would start a link tonite on here and that hopefully we can get some pictures up and help him get his plows all mounted up.
Also, does anyone have the new link to Rod in NH's website. My old link doesn't work and I know there was a page on there with his plows all mounted up. I really like his website and it's a great resource for someone with a B tractor.
Anyways, hope we can help Chuck out and get him up and running and bring another AC fan into our family.

After WWII there was a shortage of B-C mounted plows. We could get the two way hook up and the LH plow. We sold LH plows with the promise that when they became available we would return with the RH plow. Did we sell plows.
That's why I'm so familiar with the two way B-C plows. We sure mounted enough of them. Not too bad a plowing rig.
Good Luck!

A picture is worth a thousand words in any mans book!!!! I have the right plow BUT the wrong connections. Like Chuck was saying I do not have the adaptors to mount on the final drives. Nor do I have the hand adjustor that bolts on the side of the transmission just forward of the gear shift that in turn goes to a bar that is hooked or welded to the plow beams on the front. I do have the adjustment bar.
I looked at the lever on my single row cultivator but it will not adapt to the plow mounting. So I will have to have that hand operated lever.
I noticed that your pictures reveal no roll and cutters. I would like to have them as this soil here is real tight, and they are also good for sod.
Again THANKS for the pictures. I was about to throw this thing into the iron pile!!!!

Chuck, you may also not have the correct drawbar if it came from a C. The C plow draw bar is much wider then that of the B drawbar to accommodate the wider final drives the C has.
Also, the "roll and cutter" is called a coulter. If you decide to set it on the iron pile put it on a pallet and ship it to my door step instead! LOL

Well, the plow came from a B. I just dont have the brackets on the final drives. Keep trying though. You guies are GREAT at this, you have a head start.
As far as shipping the tractor to you... GOOD LUCK FELLA :) LOL

Yeah, I forgot to mention that when I took the pictures I didn't have the coulters bolted on.

There appears on your pictures a strap that holds the draw bar on the final drives. We will have to see if I can get a pair of these, the coulters and the hand adjustment. Do you know of anyone that will have any of these? Thanks again for you help.

I made a set of the straps that hold the brackets to the finals. Just cut a piece of flat stock to length (about an inch and a quarter longer than the distance between holes. Mark one hole for the bolt, about 5/8 in from one end, then scribe the center distance for the pin end. Drill and fit and weld the pin.

There are 3 versions of the B plow. The brackets that bolt on the final drives are all different, based on the plow drawbar you have. They come up on eBay often, your best bet is to watch and get a set, or to post what you need over on the Classified, and see if somebody has a set for sale. Seems like the last person looking for them ended up getting a NOS set from my pal Fred for a good price.
