I have managed to find coverboards and all of the necessary brackets for my plow.
I know what they do and I know that they are not always necessary when plowing but what I don't know is...
Do they change (increase) the power required power to pull the plow or would it be noticeable.
I've also located almost everything I need to put the front coulter on my plow.

After you find the stuff, all it takes is money honey.

(Now if I can just find the skimmers for my plow...)

From all I've ever seen, you won't be able to notice ANY difference in how a plow pulls WITH coverboards as opposed to without. You WILL be able to see the difference in the results though.

I'll order them next week.
I wish they had been on my plow when I plowed this
