I am thinking of purchasing some plows. A neighbor has IH 140 plows is good condition ? He has a 3 and a 4 bottom. My tractor is 120 hp 4x4. I was thinking Of getting the 4 bottom and if my tractor can’t pull it take the last plow section off? $1300 for either set. Opinions ?

SE Michigan | 120hp should easly handle a 4 bottom. Just a quick look at Tractorhouse, $1300 is about 1/3 of the asking price for a 140 4 bottom. I was going to post that sounded a bit high ($1300) but seems like a good deal now | ||

East Central Arkansas | I don't know the model number of our IH plow that looks real similar to that 4 bottom. Ours has 16 inch bottoms and we used a old JD 4520 or a IH 1066. | ||

I have nothing to add but man I wish we could get away with a plow without spring reset here. With our stones and boulders that plow would be in pieces before you even got to the back of the field. | |||

Huntley Montana | The value is about right . they were good plows, 4 bottom will pull as easy as the 3. You can make a 3 out of the 4, bit you can not make the 3 into a 4. Edited by Badger 11/16/2022 08:22 | ||

SE Michigan | Offer $2000 for both. Not sure about parts availability(?) In my part of the world, roll over plows are very rare | ||

Western Nebraska | Excellent plows. Grew up using them. Good trash clearance. | ||

Hp isn’t an issue but you’ll need weight. Our 6715 never has power issues but drop our 3/18 Massey in as deep as it’ll go and it’ll slip a lot. Course most people only plow 8-10” deep | |||

VT | You'll have no problem with the 4 bottom, unless your dry soils pull unbelievably hard and you insist on trying to plow too fast and too deep. I believe those are Super Chief bottoms so parts are readily available, even for the LH shares. As someone above said, I'm also jealous that you can plow without trip bottoms! | ||

If that tractor will not pull the 4 bottom, better be looking for a different tractor! | |||
