    Some pics of the little backyard plow day we had last fall, I wish I could find a 4-14 plow.

    Hope to get my 555 gas running this year so it can join the diesel in the field.

    What a beauiful job of plowing! Looks like you could have pulled one more bottom in that bean stubble. I don't what plow you were using but it did a great job.

    I think the plow is a jd 55 or something close to that with the small beam, 3-14 with mechanical lift.  I have been looking for a 4-14 plow either hyd or mechanical, but haven't come up with one yet.  I was so happy with the job the plow did that I think I would get another.  Was plowing about 8 to 9 inches deep in 3rd gear wide open, was a little fast for me but it looked like a nicer plow job.  I got the 555 diesel from an old farmer that said it hadn't been worked in 20+ years, so I wanted to give it a good work out.  I think a 4-14 in second gear would be an ideal setup.  Was the most fun I have had in awhile.
