I was at the scrap yard this morning and a fella was throwing out a 3 bottom plow. Upper arms need refab'd as they are bent and stabilizer arms are broke up to the top link connection. But the plows are in good shape. It's a heavy set. Too heavy for my L-35 but I grabbed em anyway. Thought about taking one plow off, anyone ever do that? If it doesn't work I will just fix and sell or trade them. IMG_2581.JPG

Plowing is an advanced Three Point Hitch skill.

I doubt you can rehab that mangled plow so that it will function satisfactorily. "Close" does not usually provide satisfactory service.

Actually other than the top arms that come up for top link and the corner of that mold board it's all straight. The front plow is just tripped.

Yes you can remove the rear section and have it function as a two bottom

That's what I was thinking, thank you LD1! I got the plow to reset and now I'm searching for scrap to make the upper arms from.
