I agree with Dave S. Little Genius. It looks pretty complete. The hitch was designed to release when the plow latched into a tree root, or a big rock. It had a pentile style looking arrangement that was connected to the spring, and the yoke looking casting at the front of the drawbar. The plow was connected to the tractor's drawbar to a bolted on D ring. The ring was about three inches across and the flat portion of the D had a bolt through it that attached it to the tractor. On the plow was a downward pointing finger of cas steel about an inch in crossection (it looked a lot like a pentile hook (the part on the tow vehicle) but pointing down, and attached to the tongue of the plow. When the plow hit a snag, it would pull the finger out forward releasing its grip on the D ring. It was necessary to connect the trip rope to a bent piece of #9 wire to prevent it from being ripped apart. The tractor would jerk rearward from snagging on the root, then lurch forward with serious force as the hitch released. WHen moving the plow from field to field, we were required (by my dad to bale wire the hook down to the D ring to prevent un expected disconnect from road bumps. JimN
