I am not a farmer but I have plowed a bit with the hitch type that you have. I use both the verticle and the horizontal cylinders. The horizontal 2.5" x 8" cylinder sets the proper angle (fore and aft) of the plow. In other words, it is adjusted to keep both furrows at equal depth and level. I never tried plowing with the front of the hitch locked out either up or down.

I have both a three bottom and four bottom. If I lose traction I will use the front cylinder to get me going again. I do this because I learned to plow with a Cub and used the front "draft control" in a similar manner.

I bought several of the small cylinders from Berkshire Equipment. But I am sure that any old time dealer will probably have them as used.

It is interesting that your 400 has eight spoke wheels. Haven't seen that before. Must be a late 400.
