Thought about adding on to the plow thread already active, but not sure where the gray area is regarding adding vs. hijacking a thread with the MM folk.
Was going to replace the tires, but one of the rims was bad, so switched it to steel - not sure it wasn't in the first place, and I was switching it back - from a 2 bottom parts plow I had with it.
Greased all the zeks and moving parts, hooked it up and turned a couple hundred feet, just to make sure the trip was working; not enough to even touch the surface rust, that and the wheel sizes dictating some depth adjustment, it did plug up once, but else seemed to turn the soil pretty well.
I know, every color is biased, but how did the MM plows perform? The trip drive wheel is quite a bit bigger than the other side - even with that side wearing a cuttoff tire; I presume that is normal, but the rubber was the same size on both sides.
Perhaps more tractor than plow related, but I presume it prefers a few inches of swing each way on the drawbar for easy turning?
Any quirks I should know about?
It may get a slight complex though, as I don't think the Z would like 3 16s too well, so it has to settle for McCormick Deerings pulling it.
