Nice pics, love the smell of newly plowed ground, use to be able to hear the stalks crush under the plow but can't hear it anymore... to much straight pipe and one cab that just pounded the ear drums.
 Wore out my 4X16 AC plow behind a 190XT and needed shares and land-sides and moldboards... So hesitantly, I hooked up my 565 Oliver 5X16 hydraulic reset plow and went to the field and I hardly knew the 5th bottom was back there...   Have a 2000 plow with accumulator but needs some luv and hoses before that hits the field. Lot of plows came with that high speed mold-board and I really liked the longer sweeping mb like the raydex plows had.
  Been told some models of Ford plows were Melroe plows painted... and the Melroes up here were noted to pull hard. and can find them sitting along side the fencelines in the weeds.    My guess is that some of them probably were not right or the operators didn't get them adjusted just right... You know, fine tuned...
  And the old D17 diesel got a straight pipe when the muffler went bad, Needed earplugs and earmuffs when working that girl hard, was far worse than the 190 gas was with a short straight pipe.

My brothers XT had a cab and muffler on it when he bought it. Quiet as a mouse. He put a short straight pipe on it but went back to the muffler. Short pipe to get it in his building made it too loud. Nice looking 185 and plow. I love working up fresh ground.
