Can you run me thru how to get the 3 point to hold position on these things? I have the same setup and can't get it to do anything but full-up and float - which means the plow digs to the center of the earth.

She turns real nice. It’s nice when the old veterans can still come out to do a days work. We have an AC WD but she’s pretty used up and worn out. We could do the work but the parts (if you can get em) would cost more than the whole tractor is worth. I’m glad yours is in good shape. Best wishes. 🤠👍👀✅

Question for you I have a 52 ca and just put a 3 point conversion on it. Is the hydraulics just to lift and uses the implements weight to go down? What setting do you run yours on?( drawbar, hold position, delayed)
