[QUOTE="agrifab, post: 7052696, member: 82436"] I've sent my drawings off to the local steel profilers and should receive those shortly, a 560mm wheel rim (I will then roll two 50mm wide bands at 500mm and weld those either side of the rim leaving a 30mm rib down the centre of the wheel) plus two new brackets to support the cross shaft and wheel pivot shaft and while I was at it an arm that will connect to the screwed rod to adjust the depth. Thanks for the picture of the drop arms, that helps greatly! I was concerned about setting the plough to 10" as I thought it may mean stripping the legs down completely again as the cranks needed to be in the other direction, but it dawned on me I just need to switch the front and rear leg assemblies, as they alternate in crank direction, into the new position on the frame, essentially 4 bolts!...hopefully that's the done thing to do. How wide will I need to adjust the wheel in its widest setting? I take it the rib on the wheel will usually run 10" away from the furrow wall to mark the next pass but how wider than that will it need to be so I can cut depth wheel pivoting shaft the correct length. Thanks [/QUOTE]
