With a 1-bottom plow, there's only ONE landside. I guess it could be the "rear landside" but it's also the "front landside."
The landside is what presses against the side of the newly-cut furrow, and keeps the plow running straight. It is down on the lower left side of the plow bottom.
If you're trying to run with worn-out, broken, or missing parts, you can't expect the plow to work right.
Did you adjust the tongue on the plow to make trail behind the tractor? If you swung the tongue too far to the left, the plow will just want to straighten out behind the tractor when you drop it in the ground.
If you sight straight backward from the end of the tongue, you should be at least in line with the landside edge of the bottom. Actually, you should be somewhere in front of the bottom. Anywhere to the left of the bottom will cause the plow to pull crooked.
A 1-bottom plow requires a narrow tractor like an A or B, or it must be hooked far off to the right on the hoop drawbar of an H or M.
