parts for #8C or little Genius IHC Pick up plows

1946 BN IHC · Oct 15, 2017

Does any one out there happen to have an IHC 2 furrow pick up plow in their inventory or know of one near their home base.
What I am wanting is some measurements of particular parts so I can reproduce them for my refurbishing of the IHC #8C that I have and am going to re finish in the spring. Since the little Genius and the #8C were similar; the Little Genius being on the U.S.A. side, and the #8C on the Canadian side of the border and a few other minor adaptations: I am looking for the measurement of the rear land side {which is longer} when there is no rear furrow wheel; for the measurement of the stiff pickup rod that goes from the hitch to the frame; the measurements of the bracket at the top of the pickup rod.
Most of the two furrow plows / at least the early ones had steel wheels. I will desire to covert this plow from the present steel to rubber so if any one in Ontario or Michigan has any parts I would like to hear from you in particular in regards to any parts extra you might have or might like to swap.
Thank you. WM.

Pickup plow, is that different from a trail plow or another name. I have several here and some extra parts lying around and extra wheels for rubber tires. Post or email pictures of the parts you need. As I recall, all had tail wheels, no landsides but there is one that's been down in the pasture for a long time. I'll have to look, it's in the weeds. Can't get pictures to upload.

Think I might have some of those 16" wheels in my pile as well. Same wheel used on plow, grain drill and wagon gear, not sure what else. And plow without tail wheel was little wonder, the genius all carried the back end on a 12" rubber tire unless the plow was on steel. The wonder did not on all of them have a tail wheel because the plow carried the back end on them.

to both Mike and plowman:
To give a clear picture of the plow The one that was sent by you Mike is just like the one I am re ""doing"" The only difference between tractor plows is that the pick up type has an extra rod lineage from the "tongue" to the main frame a ""1"" inch rod that is rigid when the wheel clutch is tripped this rod hooked to the tongue and connected to the tractor pulls the plow out of the ground. This type of plow had either a non swivelling furrow wheel or an extra long land side. The One I had [that was stolen and probably sold for scrap] had just the extra long land side. The front land side was about 12 inches where the rear was about 18 inches. Most had steel wheels although some had been kitted to either one or both to rubber. I will be looking for the complete hub and wheel assembly for rubber since the one I bought from a friend has steel and needs other work.
Thank you both for your responses. plowman I will give you a call later in the week during the day between 10 and 2.

One or two of the old ones in the pasture are steel wheeled.
