I guess terminology varies by region... Around here, we would call THIS a "rollover plow.

Names can and do vary a great deal be region. I would consider both plows to be moldboard plows that roll the dirt over as opposed to a chisel plow. The name for the plow I have comes from the one wheel hub rolling over when released to cause the plow to raise or lower into the ground.

Yeah Doggie!

Looks like someone swiped the gauge wheel. :>(

That 314 was a darned good plow. A little to be desired on ground clearance, but they'd sure turn the acres.

So the missing piece is called a gauge wheel. I will search for pics on the internet. Can you give me any information on the purpose of the gauge wheel and how big it is, how it mounts etc? Thanks,

Hi Rocky , The #8 doesn't have what is called a " gauge wheel " . The land wheel and tail wheel serves that function and the furrow wheel levels the whole thing side to side . The tail wheel also levels it front to back and the hitch determines how straight it pulls relative to the tractor and how well it enters and lifts out of the ground . But just like all things these aren't hard and fast rules . There's a lot of adjustments on one of these old plows to get a perfect furrow but you only need a perfect furrow if you are in a competition . There are some things to be aware of though before you drop it in the ground for the first time or you'll pull your hair out from frustration if some things aren't working right and there's nobody around to council you on what it is . BTDT !! That plow has been around for a long , long time so chances are it's set right or close to right if you bought it off a farmer that has used it . It's the wear parts that'll cause you some grief , you have Plow Chief points on it . They are expensive if you can find them at all ...Randy


By the way , it looks like most of your hitch is there , From what I can see in the pictures you are missing the pin that goes through the two side plates that hold the spring . And a handle is handy too so hookup is easier by yourself .

Rocky,

Sorry 'bout the confusion, I was refering to the missing wheel on the spinner in Bob's picture.

Don't have a clue on those one-way things. Have never even laid eyes on one and they are totally greek to me.

In South we called the 2 way plows hill side plows and they were rare.
