My point was to keep the mounting brackets tight. My C which did not have a 3 point when I bought it, has a badly worn place on one of the housings, where apparently something had run loose for years, have no idea what it was as I don't know the history of the tractor. It wasn't broken, just worn, I agree that you really have to screw up to break a casting. I was more concerned that the aftermarket 3-points, Saginaw or not, might not be as surdy, simply due to the way they have to be mounted. I grew up on an irrigated vegetable farm. To irrigate you have to have all the ridges and holes filled in or the water will never get across the field. Depth control in that situation did not depend on high and low places but only soil inconsistencies and wet and dry places. In that case, a slight raising or lowering of the mounted plow will take care of any problems, if there is no draft control. Except for the 8N/9N, draft control hadn't been invented when I was on the farm.
