plowshares for Ferguson 2 bottom- Type 14 AO-28

Thanks for your time and help...

Pat

I have a used, nearly worn out set that I took off my Ferguson 2x14" plow about a month ago. Aside from the wear, they look just like the ones in the picture below.

You can have them as well as the well worn moldboards that I also replaced if you come and get them.

I'm in IN near Cincinnati, OH.

I appreciate your feedback. When you said that your points looked like the ones below, mine don"t look like that. I don"t know if they are overly worn or someone else replaced them with another style. Can you educate me on how to submit a photo and then I can show you.

Thanks,
Pat

These are available from TEMPCO among other places but they have become VERY expensive.

The last time I checked they were about $120.00 each. The price did not vary much regardless of where I checked.

There is another type of point that was used on later plows, called a razor share or disposable share.

The one in the pic is NOT a Ferguson point. All I could find in my price range was JD points, I just modified the plow base to accept them.

I'm pretty sure ScottPA can still get the early Ferguson points if you have the $$$. I've got his # around here somewhere.

How do you submit photo's??

Thanks,

Click on the appropriate heading on the left & see how it goes.

I added a picture of the points under implements- take a look and let me know your thoughts, or anyone else for that matter. I did find a number on the moldboards, it is 14A AO 112 can anyone use this to tell me the model of the plow or cross reference part numbers???

Thanks,
Pat

I did get a hold of Scott. Looking at $170 a piece- just want to check to see if I can find them elsewhere cheaper. I would be paying more for the points that what I did for the plow. I should have done better research before putting money into them. I have 5 acres that I plow once a year- sure is alot of money with points, moldboards and the cost of the plows ($300) for just 5 acres....

Thanks for the info. on the plows themselves- very insightful..

You also have the same mouldboard #'s as mine. The "14A" means you have a 14" plow frame w/general purpose base or bottoms(type A). Earlier Ferguson plows w/ the same base were designated type R, not sure why the change.

Your plow model would have been 14-AO-28 or 14-AO-40 depending on how the dealer ordered it. The former came from the factory w/ general purpose bottoms on it, the latter came from the factory w/o bottoms so the dealer could install what the customer asked for(scotch bottoms, slatted bottoms, etc.).

Any 14"(early type)Ferguson point should fit your base, except maybe the scotch-bottom. I'm pretty sure ScottPA can match up a set of points to your mouldboard #'s. Did you talk to him yet?

Jeff

I submitted a picture of the plows on the implement photo's- would you or anyone else be able to tell me what model of plows they are by looking at them?

Thanks,
Pat

There will be a number cast into the back of your shares. You may have to get after'em w/ a wire brush to see it.

Jeff

Cut a three inche slice off a motor grader blace and weld it with the curve of the grader blade pointing downward and with about two or three inches sticking below the tip end of the share. I had to quit doing it to plow shares when we were in the tractor business because it was killing our plow share business. Nobody would by new ones after I fixed their old ones. It will make any plow take the ground no matter how badly worn the share is.

Again though, don't keep using it after the bolts in the frog begin to drag the ground or you will ruin the plow. It'll just keep on plowing till the share litterally falls off when the bolt holes are gone in the frog.
