Paul,

You're pretty darned observant!

I went out and strapped that 145 onto the 966 tonight a run 'er thru a couple of spins.

The darned thing has one of those "inertia" type setups on it where the cylinder only spins it 90 degrees and you have to "catch" the thing right smack in the middle of the rollover and throw the hydraulic lever the other way to complete the turn.

That's gonna take some gettin' used to, I'm afraid. :>(

Good news is that the 966 really pulled that rig down to size. Can hardly tell it is back there with the front weights in place.

Good eyes on your part,

Allan

Does that plow have trip bottoms for rocky ground? In my country we have the "petrified potatoes" that hitting one without a trip bottom might jolt you into orbit.

I have a 966 and the former owner pulled 4x16s with it. It played with that plow. I pull 5x18s now with it and it knows now it has something behind it.

Hi Vern,

No, we don't need the trip bottoms out here; there is no rock, other than maybe a guy will see a little bit of gravel in some localities.

I pulled one of these things with my old 966 and didn't have any problems whatsoever. But then, I wasn't getting ready to tie into 115 acres of buffalo grass sod either. :>)

I was into the 'Red Garage' the other day and the mechanic told me how to turn 'er up. Shucks, it's easier to turn one of 'em up than it is to fill it with fuel. But, I really don't wanna do that if I don't have to.

Thanks for the hollar,

Allan
