Randy: First your hitch must have side to side movement while plowing. A rigid hitch is not what keeps your plow straight, the landsides do that. Plowing with a rigid hitch, you would not be able to turn even the slightest curve. The handle at back, being the one large enough to put your full hand in D is designed to adjust your draft control. Another item to watch is just how well that draft control works after all these years. That system was IH's introduction into draft control, it saw great improvments in the 10 years that followed. You didn't say whether you are going to use a 3 point plow or 2 point fast hitch plow. The hitch was designed for the fast hitch plow. Just not sure how well a 3 point plow will work. It may take a bit of tinkering.
