Scot: You do have a good suggestion as the frames of those two plows are the same. The only part different is the pull beam and it is interchangable, so he could make up a single point fast hitch pull beam for the plow without destroying the 2 point pull beam. As far as picking up plow or disk I wouldn't worry about breaking anything as Super A will not lift that much. I have a single point 6' S tine cultivator I fabricated, 18 teeth on three tool bars. I did intend building or buying a crumbler. I now have 6.5' heavy angle iron with chains on each end to pull it for leveling and crumbling. When I leave field I throw the heavy angle on top of the cultivator. I have to place this quite close to hitch point or these little tractors will not lift the cultivator. I also have a 60 gallon sprayer, with 20' boom. I fabricated the mounting so weight is as close to tractor as possible. If that sprayer is full, I have to push on hydraulic lever then lift by hand on sprayer. These tractors will lift it with my hand help. However I do have concerns re the strength of hitch linkage so I use two chains to carry weight while spraying. Super C and 200 using a remote cylinder for the hitch will lift substancially more than the Super A, 100, 130 or 140 with the touch control rockshaft. These little tractors fall down on lift quite quickly when the weight is back 3' or 4' from hitch point.
