TBone,
I have done most of my plowing with my 2N . Dad and I adjusted that Tractor Supply single bottom plow every way possible. I followed Zane's plow setup regiment to the letter . We could not get it to track right . It always wanted to pull to the right and there would always be a little unplowed strip between each row . The worst of the whole thing was that every time you hit a big rock ( and we have plenty ) the shear bolt would shear . It did do it's job but it is a pain to get off the tractor and replace over and over .
With my trip plow , I just back up and it will reset . I will also tell you that we were able to setup that Ford plow in a matter of minutes and you can actually take your hands off the wheel and it will plow in a straight line !!!!!
I got mine with a Ferguson 30 I bought but you can pick up a good used one for about the price of a new shear bolt plow .
My Father in Law has a 2 bottom Ford trip plow that he pulls behind his Workmaster . It really makes short work of plowing but unfortunately my 2N won't pull it .
I would recomend that you keep looking for a good used one . On the other hand , I will gladly sell you my slightly used Tractor Supply plow for half price !
By the way , are you the same TBone who posts on YTMag.com ?
