New to the oldies,I've got an old JD A and an old chisel plow. The plow has the 5 or 6 horizontal holes and the A has the single vertical hole flat hitch. What am I missing to get them together?

I would use two clevices because you probly wont pull it very much. A 7 tooth pull type plow will load 100hp tractor.

I'm thinking 2 staight clevises would work, 1 to the drawbar and 1 thru that one and to the hole on the plow to make it level as possible when working. The part like Kerry said is what it came with but it has a slot cut in back of the U to atach to the plow. Then they had a piece of the same size strap welded between the U to sabilize it. It could be made or a boneyard might have something that would work. What's nice is if you can go in the bone yard. Take your wallet along and come home with a truck load of toys.lol Bill

What you're missing is what's commonly known as a clevis. When you do find one, you put in the hole where the chisel plow is level fore and aft with the tillage points in the ground, doing their job. I "cut my teeth" on an A JD pulling a 10' Graham chisel plow.

You said a Graham is what you've got once you get it out of the briars. What kind is it while it is still in the briars? Why will getting it out of the briars change what kind it is? (Sorry for the offbeat humor.)

the 5 or 6 holes are so u can adjust the height for different height tractor drawbars so the chisel plow is working at the right angle.....

u are missing the piece that bolts there that u use to hook up to the drawbar.....

i don't know if it has a name, and right now it is hard for me to describe, we have a drill with a deal like it

My dad has a 9-shank Graham plow. The clevis you're talking about looks like a piece of flat iron bar stock bent in the shape of a "U" with holes drilled through the ends of the "U" so they would line up if you put a pin through them vertically. Right now I'm 350 miles from the plow so I can't tell you how wide that piece of metal is, but you might be able to do the same thing with a commercially-built clevis and pin. You should be able to get something that will work at Tractor Supply or someplace similar.

A clevis like that is normally almost as wide as the space it is filling, made out of 5/8 or 3/4 inch flat iron, and bent in a U shape so that the open end is about twice as wide as the tractor drawbar is thick. Finished length about 8 inches. Weld a thick wall section of pipe in the closed end- the ID should be the same as the diameter of the holes in the chisel hitch. Typically 3/4 inch. Bolt it in place with a Grade 5 or 8 bolt, or in an emergency, should it break- use a hitch pin, with washer and cotter key.

5/8 or 3/4 is the thickness of the flat iron- not the width.
