Anyone had experience with hooking an older model Ferguson 3 pt. two bottom 12" plow probably in the 1940"s year, to a Ford 861 Power Master? What I found were two things for which someone's expert commentary would be appreciated:
1. The lift pins on the Ferguson plow are original but are two short to accomodate both the lift arm and sway bar from the tractor. Is this normal? Only way to accomodate is cut off the original lift pin on the plow and weld longer pins. 2. Second problem I encounted was the front coulter of the plow sits so close to the PTO shaft there is only about 1/2" clearance. The coulter cannot be moved back as they are not adjustable. In my opinion this is too close and my conclusion is this plow does not fit this tractor but I thought most any older model 3 point plow would fit a Ford tractor as long as the plow was a 3 point vintage product.
Anyone have an experience like this or know for sure if this plow should fit or not? Thanks for any help or advise.
