Kept it up all night

I hooked up my heaviest disc and the lift did not drop after sitting for 2 days ! I have 2 discs . 1 is a Leinbach 2 row 12 disc it does a really good job particulary smoothing ( i also pull a drag behind it ) and has sealed bearings . It was about $ 425 .

My other disc is a 2 row Ford disc that came with my Ferguson 30 . It is very heavy and is great for rough discing . You can also fold the back sections onto the front to make a bog harrow out of it . Unfortunately , it is really too heavy for the 2N . I can pick it up just fine but it will take the front wheels off the ground if I hit a bump ! I once changed a front tire by lifting the disc and sitting on the frame to raise up the front wheel .

I've been keeping an eye out for a disc since early last summer. Reading a lot of ads both on the internet, in several newspapers, auctions etc.
When you can find one they seem to go very high.
Like at least Twice what you'd pay for a good 2-14" Dearborn plow. And more yet if it is a Dearborn Brand.
There was a post on this board just a couple of days ago and a guy paid $500 for a New 5' disc
from somewhere like TSC.
I bought two older 3 pt. discs this spring, sold one and put the $ into this one. All new bearings
were $150. Plus a lot of monkeying around. But then we don't count our labor on this stuff do we?
I have about $275 into this one.
I have the disc wiper/cleaners (or whatever they're called) for it too just didn't get the bolts to put them on yet.
This disc is a Farm Tools Inc. brand. I'd guess built in the 50's
Good Luck
