It goes back to the Ford of 1939, first tractor in US to have a 3 point hitch. Ferguson had a tractor over in England before that was a Ferguson-Brown. Very few ever made and I dont know if it even had a leveling device or not. But on that 9N Ford the first few did have on both sides but it soon was decided that did not work out as should be as first one would be adjusted down and then in leveling the operator would use the other for leveling untill both would come apart. Also changed lift height before dropping implement to ground when supposed to be raised. Not neer as much chance of that happening with only one adjustable. Now reason for right side, all the plows made for them at that time were right hand plows and for starting a furrow you had to lower the right side so what better place to do the lowering (all the pull type plows had the lever or crank to do that located for the right side as all were also right hand plows) so to keep the operator that was used to controling the level of the plow from the right side why confuse them by putting it on the left? And the location of the right bottom made the right hand lift arm having to move a lot shorter distance than the left hand would to do the leveling why make it so you have to turn the crank twice to get same amount of leveling as one turn on the right side.

As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
