Sam: For the benifit of you and others in other areas. What you have are the lift arms for a 133 row crop cultivator. Unlike most of the continant, these were brought into Nova Scotia with two tool bars which tied both sides together. The tool bars were 5-6 ft. long and were 1.5 inch square solid steel. Some of these tool bars were mounted flat and others with corners up and down. Depending on the position of tool bar you had a clamp to match. The clamps on the flat mounting could use shanks 1/2 x1 1/2 flat bar or round 1 1/4 shank. The other could only use flat bar shanks. Most of them came with three V type hoes. You mounted one in each wheel track and the other in centre. It would make garden rows or hills. Many people would make drill with these, drop potato seed in drills, then off set half with tractor and cover seeds. I had 4" sewer pipe made up like a walking cane, and a hip mounted pail for seeds, drop seeds down sewer pipe. Two people could plant 1/2 acre per hour. For later cultivation in rows there were 9 or 12 cultivator points mounted the same way. Super A was a full two row machine in Nova Scotia. I have never heard of the off set Farmalls being equiped that way anywhere else. Maybe someone can enlighten us. I believe this set up of tool bars and shanks came from Euorpe. Hugh
