I will go a bit futher than the other posters and say scrap the 3 point plow idea. A 3 point mounted plow requires both position and draft control to operate properly, that is drop it at the end of a field and have it plow at an even dpeth. Thats not to say you couldn"t turn over a garden plot by constantly fooling with the lift lever but it would not be my idea of fun plowing up an old pasture. Get a snap coupler plow or a pull type, if you have no fluid or weights get a two bottom, you"ll not be lacking for power but traction. When weighted and equipped with a properly adjusted Snap Coupler plow a 45 is good for 3=16" anywhere except across your driveway. In stubble it will pull 4-14 in 2nd except in very heavy soils. As one of the other posters said, been debated for years but the doubters may watch one in action at the Jamboree show in N Illinois every summer. Tractor goes on the dyno, 45HP then on to a #64 plow and into wheat stubble in late July. Heavy dark Illnois clay, 8" deep, 2nd gear and uphill to boot.

Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
