He has two ploughs on ebay at the moment, a TS59 with TCNs and a TS91. Fordyman 20
Front mouldboard looks to be spurious and no Kristeel stamp on rear mouldboard.

Says in item description they are not genuine
Sorry but first time round came up as an international seller with price in dollars and no description, whether it be glitch or just the age I'm at!

No pics sorry, but it’s very very straight forward to do
Turn the frog upside down and place in a vice.
You will see the socket where the bar point goes at the tip of the frog.
This needs to be removed and ground as flush as possible as this is where the bolts for the new points will come thru.
After that’s done, turn the frog over and offer up the point, mark the holes and drill, same for the share.

What you could do after cutting off the front bar socket, and placing the share/point in position is to lightly tack weld the back of the share to the frog.
That would hold it in place then you could drill the holes in the exact spot you want.
Another thing I forgot to mention is the fact you need to cut the front of the landslide as the bar point version comes right to the front, whereas the new style point you are fitting goes over onto that side
