I am a firm believer that the rear tractor tire does NOT belong in the furrow for ANY reason. Tractor tires and drawbars and plow tires and plow linkage can all be adjusted for any setup so as to not have a tractor tire running in a furrow.
I have been conventional plowing for many years and every setup I have used from AC B, JDA, Farmall H and currently a Case 1030 I have never had a rear wheel running in a furrow. The tractor should set up straight and level for max efficient.
On my current Case 1030 I have wide 23.1x30 rears set in close. I am pulling a JD 640 4x16 trailer plow with a 60 inch sodbuster behind. I am plowing every kind of ground you can think of from grey loom to red clay. I have had more than one fellow stop by to tell me they have never seen anyone plow so smooth.
I have my rears set narrow and the drawbar set all the way to the right. I set the plow tongue to the left and set the angle brace so the plow pulls true and straight. My tractor always sets level on new ground making driving a lot more pleasant.
Everyone has there own opinion but I gaurantee noone will ever change my mind on this one. At least give it a try and make up your own mind.

Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
