So I was watching sold old Allis Chalmers promotional videos on YouTube and low and behold look what I saw. 
Looks like the cultivators and tool bar are for a B after all!

I love watching those old advertisement videos.

I may be wrong, but I don’t believe those are the cultivators you want, not to cultivate crops anyway,, that’s more of a spring tooth harrow for breaking up ground, I believe anyway. And I may be wrong again, but I’ve only seen those tool bars on B’s equipped from factory with the snap coupler hitch, very few of those, at least around here.

The only cultivators for cultivation of crops that I’ve seen for B’s are units that bolt to the front of the bell housing and go under the rear of tractor and has a large curved bar that’s easily seen from the back.
While the C cultivators were standard with a straight rear tool bar.
That one in the picture has feet all across the tool bar, looks like to break up ground, not tend to plants.
Please someone correct me if I’m wrong.

I agree with Dave... Yes, you can use that bar on the B, but its mainly to break up ground.

B is a one row tractor, so you would be driving thru the crops with the two tires straddling one row... and you would have two cultivators, one ( or two) behind each tire.

Like them all, but love the "B"s.

you guys are right, they’re not really the cultivators I want, but they are the only B cultivators I have found. 

My donor B will give me the lift mech and I got a 1 furrow B plow with it so I will keep it. If I can find the proper 1 row cultivators I will buy those as well. In the meantime I can adapt the field cultivator to work as a garden 1 row cultivator until I find the proper one.
