The book does not or I have not found dimension specifically for 3 4 5 bottom plows . Kelly's picture shows a 2 bottom plow, fast hitch . I admit I have never used a fast hitch plow. There probrobly is an adjustment to point the plow toward or away from the furrow to adjust the width of cut of the front bottom. But to have wheel set wider than the dimensions will result in having to adjust the plow so it is pointed to the furrow in order to get the proper width of cut on the front bottom. THAT SAID, I would leave the on land wheel alone, find out if the plow is 14" or 16' then try to get the furrow wheel close to the proper dimension. maybe add a couple of inches. Dimensions for a 14" plow is 25 1/2 " plus 6 " to get to the center of the tire = tires 62 1/2" center to center on tires NOT ENOUGH ,you need 10" more to get 6' center to center. Five " each side. WON'T WORK I don't think you could adjust the plow to make that front bottom plow the proper width. Get a three bottom and we can start this discussion over. Three 14" bottom will change the center line of draft of the plow to get you about 6' center to center on the tires. My last plowing job was 7 bottom variable width plow 175 HP wheels set about 7 feet. That plow would do 6' wide up to 12'wide, The secret was in the angle of attack of the bottoms to get the front furrow width correct all done from the seat.

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
