Last fall I bought a MF #88 4x16" plow that I know MF didn't build, It looks a lot like Oliver plows and when I look up parts like points coulters and moldboards it says also fits Oliver. So if parts interchange witch Oliver plow is this one like?

Oh if anyone near SW Ohio that might have a good coulter like the plow has I need one for mine bad! 3 like new ones on it a one wore out odd ball, Its the only thing wrong with it I can find. Bandit

Got one just like that. Has MF stickers and serial plate. Looks a lot like an IH I saw a while back. Be interested in other's answers. By the way, does a fair job of plowing once you master the hydraulics and settings. Need new coulters on mine too. Wonder if generics from TSC would work.
 
Got that same plow. Mine was a five bottom when I got it. Took it down to the four bottom.Don't really use it anymore, I'll check my coulters.
 
I would too. I know I've seen an Oliver plow like this one but I just cant remember when or ware. I dose resemble a JD 145 in the way its made and so dose this Case plow. I think Mf must have bought parts from different manufacture and someone built them for them, Maybe? I do have a Case 5x16 semi mount that for sure is an Oliver cause I have the identical Oliver plow next to it. I know there is a IH plow that looks a lot like this one just don't have a picture of it. Bandit

This plow can a guy I know all my life and to tell the truth this one has never really been used. I don't know what happened to the other coulter I did looked for it but couldn't find it. I don't think this one has plowed 100 or so acres in its life. Good plow just needs some TLC. Bandit

I believe the A frame that you have your three point lower arms hooked to are to convert to top link draft sensing. Massey tractors used top link sensing. Most of the other tractor manufacturers used bottom link draft sensing. I assume this was to get around Ferguson's patent.
