Was working on getting my "new" plow going and I did get everything hooked up and plowed a little bit of ground. One thing that was immediately obvious is that my right-left level on the plow is wrong.
Adding salt to that wound is the actions of previous owners who *welded* the adjustable vertical (turnbuckle) links solid.
I searched CNH parts online and there are no illustrations and the bill of material doesn't appear to have what I need either. What I was hoping was this is a common part used on other models that I could just get some new-er ones.
It has occurred to me to take these into the shop and attempt to save the bodies by slicing thru the welds and then boring out the bodies in an attempt to release the shaft and then turn new (presumably) Acme thread shafts to interface with the bodies. Major problem there is that the shop is not here yet and in a state of "moving" so all bits and pieces are packed and crated.
So...I'm trolling for ideas on what I can put there temporarily to make it work right and then work on originality at some time in the future. As far as deadlines I haven't any, the garden is in for this year and the plowing I was doing above was mostly for testing and an attempt to shave some dirt off a high spot which prevents the farthest part of the field from draining properly.
