Thank you all for the replies! I have to get it bought first but it's about 50 miles away from home and don't have a trailer and really don't want to drive the tractor that far to get it if i do end up being the highest bidder. Thanks again!

Yes!it is easily haulable.I used to haul a IH#314(3 bottom 2way fast hitch)in my '67 F-100 with a crossbed toolbox.Leave the tailgate down,let the hitch hang out the back,throw a chain/ratchet strap over the top and drive away!hauled that plow many miles like that.

I hauled a 4-14" No. 60 plow in the back of my F-150 years ago. I had the sliding rear window, so I opened it up and put the hitch in the cab with me..... ..... ..... ....My young and stupid days, but it did work.

I've also hauled a Little Genius 3 bottom that way. Scrap yard said it weighed 800 lbs (missing too many parts and too many farmer fixes to be worth messing with).

Quoting Removed, click Modern View to see

Good to know. I bought one this summer by the pound and we never got a chance to weigh it. I figured 900, but this one was missing the hitch.

The center of gravity on that plow is up there quite a ways. If you can fit it in laying down or even upside down, you will have better luck getting it home without an uh-oh. Put a piece of 3/4 plywood in the bed before loading--it evens out the pressure points between the plow & bed of the truck.
I hauled a 3-bottom JD plow home from Moline [45 miles] in the '67 1100 IH pickup for the landlord & didn't have any trouble.
That plow was heavier than the one you're getting. It was an adjustable width outfit that had lots of extra iron.

I believe it is to wide when you angle it into the bed.Squeezed a AC snap coupler 2-14 into a 8 foot bed and it almost didn't fit.

Hi, my brother hauled the 3pt hitch version of that plow in his Chevy Sierra 1/2 ton. I believe he removed the tail wheel and lifted it in with a front end loader and had the rear to the cab. His 1/2 ton has an extra leaf in the rear springs.
