Seeking Allis Chalmers Seed Plates

[PineRidge]

I have an oldie but goodie Allis Chalmers 2 row corn planter. It works well but I am starting to experiment with different varieties of sweet corn and the the seed plates that came with the machine don't work well for all size seed corn. The present plates are marked Allis Chalmers 300106 which by the Allis operators manual is rated for common corn and is 16 cells. Can anyone tell me if seed plates can still be found for these vintage machines? Also does anyone know if they are interchangeable with any other manufacturers machines? Pictures of a seed plate are attached.

Hello.

Try this allis chalmers forum.

Also, your local Agco dealer might have what you need, they often have quite a few Allis parts...at least they did when I sold my Allis D14 a month ago.

I was also informed that a John Deere 999 seed plates are interchangeable with the Allis. Still seeking sources if anyone can help further.
