Farmall a Plow

I'm looking to get a one bottom plow (Original style) for my A. I also need the hand lift and I think a rock shaft. Does anyone have a picture of the plow/hand lift set-up? It would be helpful to know what I need and what I should be looking for when I go to the salvage yard. Thanks in advance for any and all help.
 
You better get an owners manual before looking for the plow as there are lots of mounting parts. Rockshaft yes with linkage on it ,wishbone assy that goes on the steering sector then depth lever mounting on the bell housing and of course the lift lever that mounts on the drivers platform. I have some of the parts if you can find one.
 
You need to make sure you get all the brackets for installing the plow on the tractor when you buy a plow. Mine were istalled on the plow when I bought the tractor. I left them on when I had the plow sandblsted. Hal

The plow for the Farmall A is a 16-inch plow. The Cub plow is 12 or 14 inches. You can advertise it on the Classified Ads under Marketplace. Hal

Thanks for the info fellas. I know my local salvage yard has a plow, I just need to find the parts to make it go up and down. Thanks again.
 
The Cub plow is not the same as the one used on the A They fasten to the tractor different and the lift assy is also different. The beam for the Cub is also shorter.
 
The plows for the A come in 12.14,16in bottoms also come with guage wheels and rolling cutters and joiners fixed or mounted to the rolling cutters as extras even choice of steel or rubber guage wheels.
 
Not wanting to change his subject, but just have to ask this question: How does a person lift the plow at the end of the row. Since it's "full", its very heavy, too heavy to be lifted by the manual arms. Backing up the tractor kinda solves the problem, but is their a proper way?
 
That is why the lift lever on the A is very long. It may also be spring-loaded from what I remember.

When the hydraulic lifts came along, people threw these plows in the garbage and never looked back... That's why they're so rare and it's so difficult to find all the parts you need. Heck, not many people know exactly what you need even.
 
You can lift that plow on the Farmall A using the long lever in the pic I posted. If its covered with sod or dirt backing up may make it somewhat easier. The plow on the Cub and A's isn't very light. The long lever gives you a mechanical advantage and you're not lifting the full weight of the plow. Hal
 
I don't understand what you mean when you say "you're not lifting the full weight of the plow". When you come to the end of the row, that 16" plow is full of heavy soil (plowing 8" deep) and it's sure more than I can lift. Heck, I couldn't have lifted it when I was 18. Our soil doesn't run off the side when lifted. I just wondered if there was a way Farmall suggested doing it. The only way I can see how is to back up. But, that's real hard on the yoke-frame & tailwheel.
