Looks like a New Idea to me. The hitch and where the hitch bolts up to the rest of the frame and the general shape of the frame. How the frame extends out each rear corner just a bit. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-IDEA-551-8-10-12-14-16-TANDEM-DISC-HARROW-OPERATORS-MANUAL-/150866211190" rel="nofollow - http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-IDEA-551-8-10-12-14-16-TANDEM-DISC-HARROW-OPERATORS-MANUAL-/150866211190 ------------- -- --- .... .- -- -- .- -.. / .-- .- ... / .- / -- ..- .-. -.. . .-. .. -. --. / -.-. .... .. .-.. -.. / .-. .- .--. .. ... - Wink I am a Russian Bot |

Lonn, I had a New Idea sickle mower that was constructed out of big round tube like that, it was built like a tank!...that is why I suggested New Idea. Pastor Mike ------------- It is great being a disciple of Jesus! 1950 WD, 1957 D17...retired in Iowa, |

Would a WD pull it? ------------- It is great being a disciple of Jesus! 1950 WD, 1957 D17...retired in Iowa, |

I think a WD will spin out trying to pull it in good ground with it working hard. I found a 6' disk was about right with my MF-135 with similar capabilities. I took an Oliver 12' disk, and remounted half the gangs as an offset disk and it was heavy enough to penetrate well and made a good load in plowed ground. Gerald J. |

Wd 8 ft. is about it . 10' is just a little too much need a wd45. But all in how deep and fast you are going. Pitch (angle) you set the blades, and type of soil and conditions (wet dry etc.). ------------- Ac D-19, a Number of WD's, One WD45, Two 444 balers, Ac plows and etc. |

Thanks guys...that is kind of what I thought. I have an 8 foot dearborn disk I think now, it is 3 pt. I usually pull it in second cause my field is short. It has one gang that has a bent axle. I need to take it off and straighten it and I need to re do it somehow so that it will raise up off the ground farther when I have it all the way up. ------------- It is great being a disciple of Jesus! 1950 WD, 1957 D17...retired in Iowa, |
