Plow parts

I would like to locate a set == or at least locate drawings for a set of rolling jointers ( small disks ) that replace the solid jointers on a Little Genious # 8 C IHC plow.
As I start to slowly work on this rebuild I am brought back in time to my younger days (when I was about 12 years old) on the farm. This along with the IHC Farmall BN which is nearly finished (one more tire to put on it --toooo cold to work out side, just now)
Any way IF any one in Ontario Canada or Michigan can provide me with information it would be apprecitaed.
Thank You
Wm.

Is this the same one you were looking for hitch parts back in December?

What you are wanting is a set of Lantz coulters, they are all made as one unit. You would have a time being able to make anything as for a seperate piece they would not work. I have not used them but friends have. I liked the Yetter with a standard 16" disk blade on them. I sold what I had a couple of months ago.

Yes ALTHOUGH I am in no hurry would just like to know where I might find them. I have a long way to go before I can put these parts into place. Just started on the hitch parts to day. Have the hutch all in pieces and the steel parts ready to wire brush while the cast hitch parts and associated piecse (small) are bing soaked in muriatic acid in a closed container lid tight on. This may take a week or two at the present temperatures.
I guess I am slow compaired to some. Don't want to tip over the financial apple cart st to speek and up set my young lady my wife! Hihi both fo us are in our 60s
Thank you

If that plow used the same coulters as the three-wheel type I may be able to help. Glad you're not in a hurry because I just had a shoulder replacement and probably can't look until April.

The propper name for the coulters is Lantz coulters.
As I have stated I am certinly not in a hurry! How can I be when the outside temperature is 18 deg F or -15 c? That is too-ooo crippling for my hands, since when I was a child on the farm who wouldn't keep his mits on and forze my fingers, now I am paying for it, EVEN in my shed warmed by a kerrocen heater with in 2 feet of me.
Any way, thank you for all the help, each of you have and are giving.
Wm.

Yes Mike the plows are the same, just different wheel configurations and tongue parts.
By the way thank you to all who gave me assistance in finding the propper casting piece with the the locking fingers. I was able to procure the pieces from the gentalman in Pensilvania.

I have seen those lantz coulters but to me the yetter was way better.

Leroy I am unfamiliar with the yetter designation you are mentioning. I remmber when my father and I were plowing corn stock covered ground how he on 5he B 75 D international would ""FLY"" through them and not plug up because the double coulters would split the stocks where I on the ford 9n with the dearborn 2 furrow was constantly plugging. So i guess it is just a memory of dad and I working together that is important. So if you have a drawing or picture of the ones you are describing I would be interested in seeing it.
Have a wonderful day.

I still have a set I kept for my 2-12" Ford-Ferguson plow Dad bought new along with the 44 2N tractor in May of 44 And have used them on multiple JD, Oliver and David Bradley plows. I cannot post pictures as either do not have porper equipment for that (Probably) as well as do not understand how to do it. I will try to explain how they work You do know how a disk blade sets on right front gang of disk set full in gear. Take that blade and set at that angle and mount it on a like a wheel bearing hub set for the angle od that disk blade working. Then mount that hub to a heavy pice of steel with some adjustment holes in it. Now take that heavy piece of steel and bolt it solid so it cannot move to the coulter shank. The curve and angle of that disk bladedoes both the cutting of the flat blade on the Lantz and the angle blade on the Lantz but with only one blade. It cuts the stalks and furrow edge and at same time rolls the dirt away from the furrow edge and past the beam shank the moldboard is mounted on and the cornstalks do not catch on to the beam same as the lantz is designed to do But with just one blade on a single set of bearings. And the concavity of the balde does the work of that flat angled blade on a Lantz coulter using to blades and 2 sets of bearings. All I could do it take a picture, take camara to Walmart and get pictur printed out and snail mail to you.

Thank you Leroy
I follow what you have written. I also found a site showing the coulter you spoke about and the lantz culter too. As I said I will continue to look arround for the Lantz type. It is a"" memory thing"". Just doing my best to recreate what dad had, what the plow I purchased from the wife of my friend, that she and her husband had and the original IHC 8C two furrow lift plow that I had ( that some one ran off with and scrapped). So it is a combination prodject, also to keep IHC history alive and working in south west Ontario Canada near London.
When I finally procure a set for the two furrows I may either have to drive to pick them up or find a trucker who is going close to that location who wouldn't mind ferriing them for me, since I know the shipping costs will be exorbinant. The cost for the hitch piece !I Am Not Complaining! "not in the least!" Was equal to the part, JUST being practical about the procurring of the coulters and shipping. Don't want to be impractical as to costs! My wife still in "chastizing" me over spending on rebuilding the 1946 IHC BN built in August of that year as a test model, even though it is only about 1000.00 over what I ORRIGINLLY gestimated and that has been over nearly 7 years of work.( 35 -4000)finished rather than close to 2000.
Have a wonderful weekend both of you fellows on to the south of me.

I understand what you are wanting. I would say for your best chance of finding some contact Plow Peddler, Steve Smith @ 4900 E. Township Rd. 122, Republic, Oh 44867 419-618 0017 or slicobright.net I sold him a bunch of plow parts last fall including some of those yetter coulters. Do not know of any Lantz coulters for sale but he might. He is also one of the top men in the Ohio IHC club chapter.

Hi I do have some Lantz coulters if you need them. thanks Steve 419-618-0017

Was hoping you would see and reply. Nice talking with you at Sidney last fall even tho it was cold.
