Hi all,
My 1950 WD came with no snap coupler attachment. I bought one and am trying to get it put on. I have the bottom snap coupler yoke installed, and I need to know where the lever (you use your foot on it to open the snap coupler I think) that has the chain attached to it is positioned? Can any one put up some photos to help?
Thanks

It goes under one of the bolts on the left side of the transmission. I can't remember exactly which one at the moment. You wouldn't need a good 2-14 snap coupler plow to test that hitch, would you?

Aaron is right, but there are about three different bracket that are used and they attach differently.

Ok guys...my lever is a rod that is bent and it has a bracket that has one bolt hole in it...

Aaron,
How good of shape is the plow in? I have a 3 bottom snap coupler plow, I might trade even up if you are interested. I want one that is not worn out and one that is scoured good already...In using the three bottome I would need to get weights for the wheels, as I do a lot of spinning...The three I have has decent moldboards etc...but it needs to be pulled in a little sand to scour them up good,,, I don't have any sand here.
