I have an old AC Snap coupler plow similar to the attached. I would like to convert it to a three point to work with my JD 4320 compact with an Imatch quick hitch.

Has anyone seen this done successfully?

Any ideas on whether a 4320 compact can pull a 3-14 plow successfully?

Thanks!

I would imagine you could pull a 3 X 14 plow, but I don't know about this one. Might be cheaper in the long run just to check Craigslist and get a Ford or Massey 3-bottom.

Fill in your profile with both your tractor brand and model.

Fill in your profile with your location so we can make an educated guess about your soil.

Those moldboards look rough. Earth contact parts need to be bright and smooth otherwise friction through the soil increases by multiples.

Personally, I doubt the conversion to todays standardized three point hitch is a reasonable proposition. Moldboard plows have to be adjusted exactly right to move through the dirt and turn the soil. It is not simply a matter of attaching a plow to the 3-pt and then pulling.
