Bought a 2-14 Spring-Trip Plow Today

A non-spring trip plow came with my 140 last year and I told
myself if I came across a spring-trip plow like my Dad's 140
had, I'd buy it. Today I bought a 2-14 single point fast hitch
plow from Kernersville Farm Equipment. They had re-built the
plow with new points and new blocks on the away from furrow
side (what do those short blocks do - just serve as rub strips?).
It plowed like a dream! It also has more clearance and didn't
clog up with trash like my older rounded-looking plow body did.
Hit a root and the plow tripped like it should. This plow also has
a semi-circular hitch notch that fit/slipped around the bottom
horizontal linkage of the tractor's fast hitch. The older plow did
not have that additional link point to the fast-hitch. The plow
wear parts appear to the same as the ones on my rounded
looking plow. We are parched in NC and our piedmont clay is
tough when moist but darn near concrete today. Had to run the
140 in first gear and still had to have a fast hand on the lift
levers because she would sit and spin even on her fluid-loaded
new 11.4-24s. Even though its just a big garden patch, it sure
was relaxing working the land with a plow that wants to dig.
