Dave: We had three of these over the years. First one was on the W4 and those were a bit different from Farmall setup. Got a new one with H in 51, and for some reason another new on with 300. Just why dad wanted two, not sure, he only had one plow. Must have been a special deal on side hill hitches when he bought the 300. It wasn't an attachment one leaves on full time, as it almost had to be removed for pto work.

Officially they were all blue, although like most IH attachments I expect a few got painted red. The reason I belive these were all made at Hamilton ON, they show up in manual of No.8 Tractor Plow made at Hamilton, but not in the manual of Little Genius No. 8 made in Canton IL. Near as I can tell there was a separate parts manual for side hill hitches sold in the US.

Your also right, most of those flat landers of the mid west and the wheat belt, both Canada and the US, haven't got any idea what we're talking about.
