[QUOTE="Howard150, post: 6336806, member: 30002"] In all fairness not a ridiculous plough to get you going and you have got the best of bodies for the vintage class. Might just help if you had skimmers mounted on the discs and tip the furrow width adjuster forward to where you can reach it as has already been said. It looks as though the plough is set at 12” which is far too wide for vintage. 10 is quite sufficient, some plough at 9 3/4. It will easier for you to use if the front leg stays outside the frame and you pack the back leg across. Mounting holes at the bottom of the leg are all standard on FR and Ransomes ploughs so you could always fit TCN’s if you want to plough in the Classic Class. Steer clear of Fergy ploughs unless you are pulling them with a grey Fergy. Only in the softest of sand will they be on terms with a pair of YL’s or TCN’s Just get to grips with using it. You don’t need anything too exotic until your skill level gets to be quite high. All singing all dancing is not an automatic passport to success. The main and oft flawed component fits somewhere twixt the seat, the steering wheel the hydraulic quadrant and the pedals! Good luck. [/QUOTE]
