I think the pic is showing up now ... At least it is on my iPad

The missing piece is called a "plow point", in my neck of the woods.

Wasn't there recently a thread about someone who replaced a share on a plow?

I see what looks like a tag in the picture, do we know what brand/model number this plow is?

We call em plow shares in this part of the country.
Don't look to hard to adapt one to fit.
I've drilled shares to adapt them, but they are hard on the drill bit.
they ain't cheap like old days.
might find some discarded/worn ones from a neighbor farmer and see what you can do.

I've always called them "shares" too. Heck even the Bible mentions them as shares.

To each their own. Not trying to start an argument.

They are called shares. Google it. Or try walking into a farm dealer and asking for a "plow point". They'll look at you funny and tell it's called a share.


Who knows where the "frog" is? :biggrin2:

Behind the molboard isn't it?

The plow was sold thru Sears. I'm not sure who made it for Sears or this is something Sears made.
Here are few different views of that plow.

Looks like it should work fine! Never have seen one like that.

I thought I knew what the frog was but I would have been wrong.What I thought was called a frog is actually called a shin. I googled and found this site thought it was interesting so I hope the link works.One type of mouldboard it did not mention was a slatted mouldboard.

Technical Note 20. The Moldboard Plow - The Open Furrow...
open-furrow.soil.ncsu.edu/.../DHC/The%20Moldboard%20Plow.pdf

It is a good plow to plow with. Best thing I like is it doesn't plug up like some other plows do.

Merk is that your plow?? I'm gonna go to some old farms this week end an see if I can find a share that with will work on it If not looks like I'm gonna be in the market for a new plow

Sadly,
you are prolly not gonna find a "fitted" share too easily.
might just as well look for a complete plow, and use that one for the flower bed decoration.
FWIW:
IH plow chief did use a Spear point, it was below the shim, on the end of the share.
As it would wear, it kept a person from having to purchase a complete share.
IIRR I would replace 2 maybe 3 points before I needed to replace the share.

Still got a 3 bottom 14" plow chief behind the barn, but not going out to take a pix of it just yet. it is a bit snow covered out there.

If you can drill it...... just go buy a new plow share for like a 14" IH plow. They're less than $20 and most farm stores keep them.

That is my plow.

I would try to find a complete Brinly moldboard section (landslide-share-moldboard and possibility frog) and try to use the Sears framework.

Another possibility is to find a Sears 3 point plow and used the pieces you need.

Trying to find a point for a Sears Plow could be hard to do.
Biggest issue you will have is the front part of the landslide and share is one piece.

Good luck finding a share.

Yep I might donate this one to the flower bed lol I wish I would've done some research before I bought Id been looking for one for a couple months an found that one ... Kinda of a impulse by haha

I wish you were closer I would give you what you paid for it to get it out of your hair. :beerchug:

Well I'm gonna attempt to make a share for the plow this week end I'll let you guys know how it turns out

If you end up in Missouri some day I have one that looks like this without the coulter.

Pretty hard to make a "fitted" share.
A regular throw away share that is close could be made to work, but not on that plow that had a fitted share originally, also fitted shares are hard to come by today, possibly one from a ford 8 n plow???
I think they were the fitted style but a 12" wide cut though.
The share will cost 2x what you paid for the plow if bought new.
It don't pencil out in my mind.

I'm welder/frabricator I think i can make a share that fits an looks the same Im just not sure about how it will hold up ... I'm sure there heat treated an that's somthing Im not to knowledgeable about besides heating it up an sticking it in some oil .. I'll post pic whether I fail horribly or not lol

I think I'd do what Jon said, get an IH plow share from a farm supply store and modify it should work out. If you can't drill it you could torch bolt holes in it or trim it with a torch. I know it would affect the Heat treatment, but it's not like your gonna be plowing a 100 acres a year with it.

Brian is right. Just buy one and modify it. You won't be able to make one hold without either breaking the point or wearing really fast. Pulled a lot of plows, it'd blow your mind how fast mild steel wears in the dirt. If your a welder/fab guy should be easy to mod one. :beerchug:

I haven't seen a fitted share in farm stores in 40 years, just regular shares.
Good luck!

My friend modified a IH deep suck share and fit it on a Brinly 10" plow and it works as well as a factory share.

i was gonna say; 10 min in the ag aisle at fleet farm i would find something to make work....

I didn't get to make it to tsc this week end Im gonna stop on my way to work tomorrow I'll let ya guys know how it goes ....if anyone ever tells ya that changing heater core in Dodge Durango is an easy job be sure to punch them in the mouth lol I'll buy a new truck before I'll ever attempt that again

Ha,LOL
try the chevy s-10 blazers, 95-2005 ya have to pull the whole dash.
I'm sure there are others just as bad.
some engineers are sadistic.:banned:

You have to pull the dash on the Durango's too.
Chevy's are easy.
Durango's suck!!!!!

That's why my buddy just bypassed the heater core and put a 12v cab heater in.:biggrin2:

Now they hang a heater core in mid-air on an assembly line and build the whole vehicle around it.

I don't mind the Durango's anymore. I've got them down to about 3 hours if don't take too many smoke breaks. Although they are usually getting an evaporator, but same thing. I think I have only done like 2 S-10's compared to probably 200 Durangos/Dakotas.

That's pretty good given the book time of close to 6hrs. :beerchug:


Ain't that the truth. That's about the ratio that we do to Chrysler to Chevy. Although, I've done far more mini vans than Durangos.

I had so much trouble with a Dakota that I traded it for a Toyota Tacoma in 09. I liked the Toy so much that I just bought a new one same color and all. Gave the 09 to my daughter. Back to originally scheduled programing.
