[QUOTE="DrDunc, post: 8045683, member: 615"] Definitely same depth rear fur each way? The clamp for the wheel to the beam became a tiny bit loose on mine. Looked at everything before going back to measuring the furrow depth. There was a good half inch difference, and yes, it pulled beautifully straight one way, and pulled to the ploughing the other. Never told anybody I'd missed something so simple, so managed to cover my embarrassment..... Oh wait, bugger.... My plough needs one turnover screw to be a turn or two less than the other for it to follow straight both directions. Never have found why, and there's no obvious difference to the lean angle, but the landslides wear slightly tapered on the side that doesn't pull straight unless the stops are adjusted different lengths. Is your tractor linkage worn unevenly? I'd one years ago that needed the right arm shorter than the left. Again I never got totally to the bottom of where the wear was, but put it down to many thousand acres cutting with a 10 foot side mower conditioner. Are all the skimmers at the same offset from the points? The skimmer legs can be in line with the landslide, or turned to cut wider. There's also a grub on each leg for fine adjustment. It might pull offset if one side is cutting more than the other? [/QUOTE]
