Back in the 1960's my dad had a Minneapolis Moline UB and a U paired up for plowing. He pulled a 6/14" MM Plow with a drag to the side. It worked real well.Duals on the landside. Both Gas jobs.Head lands were a big deal tho. Needed a lot of room to turn around. Hydraulics were from the UB in the front. Throttle was off a JD R and hand clutch for the U was real simple just a short spring loaded lever from an old plow he had . The clutch lever locked in position until the turn was made when it was released again.Both throttle and clutch lever were attached to a frame bolted to the front of the U.A peice of 4" I beam ran from the UB drawbar ,between the tricycle front of the U and back to the U drawbar where it was attached.Never took long to get the U ready to go plowing.He never would let any one else run it to my recollection.Certainly not me as I was generally behind him plowing with my AC 190 trying to keep up.After Plowing was done the team was split up and the UB had a right side dual put on and with a 15' AC wheel disc knocked down the plowed ground and the U was put on the JD494 Planter. I wish now we had taken some pictures of the MM team but never did .My memories are all that is left of them.

After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
