I had a thread a while back on this and a dirt scoop, but it's been a while so I figured I'd start a new thread on my progress with my plow. The old thread is here.
I've got some pictures of a few completed parts, and the whole assembly ready to hit the dirt!
The outer coulter bearings were missing some parts, so a friend did some welding for me and built up the areas that were missing, and then I ground them down to fit.
I purchased a new shin on ebay, then a new share and bolts from Sweigard Bros. in PA thanks to allenintexas for the number. A coulter blade/disk that was close in size to what I would need came from Agri Supply. 15" dia., then I was happy to find it had a 6 bolt pattern, three of which matched up with the coulter bearings that I have. The part number at ASC for the disk is 31571.
The center of the disk needed opened up to about 2", but I burned up 2 hole saws trying to get it there, this thing is hard, hard, hard! Ashamed to say, but I drilled about 50 1/8" holes around the 2" circle, then set up the disk on my ball joint press receiver and took one big swing with the BFH and it popped right out! Not pretty but I'll take it!
So now it's just a matter of putting the chains on my rear tires and hoping for some dry days to go make things happen! I'll post something in the projects section once I get that done!
