In the last pic it looks like it is centered , and the pic above that looks like it is offset.

Looking at the very first pic you can see that the adaptor thingy is centered in sleeve hitch adaptor.

A way to offset the plow is what you want , but you would have to redo the adaptor to offset the plow.

The chain/bolt idea like robpa said would work to try the plow in some dirt , and you are going to have to get the lift/plow on the same plain. What i mean is , the lift not all the way up and the plow all the way down , vice/versa.

I hope all that made sense !!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the help, guys. The tractor is at the farm, and I'm stuck working the next two weeks, tractorless.

The hitch is definitely centered on the tractor. I didn't think of checking how the plow aligns with the right side tire. I think I might be leaving a gap between furrows, if the plow is too far left.

I also didn't think to measure the length for the bars. I do have some chain that will work for now, until I can get a measurement.

Here's the operator manual for a brinly sleeve hitch plow.

Take notice of the set up locations for the width between the rear tires. Just maybe you lucked out.

If not, maybe it can be spaced with washers to offset it.

I think I may have a workable plow next weekend, when I visit my tractor again.

I have some chain and bolts and a pin to connect the lifting tab on the hitch to the lifting rod on the tractor. This plow does not have any adjustment for depth, and my tractor only has up or down, no in between. Since the chain and hitch are quite close to the tractor, and the moldboard is far away, I think that the 1" links will be too course of an adjustment (one link is likely to be 4 or 5 inches at the business end of the plow.) So I bought a turnbuckle to install in the chain to give me fine tuning of depth, and the plow's only adjustment will correct the plow's up/down angle.

I bought some longer bolts and washer's, so I can now offset the hitch 1" left or right, which doesn't seem like enough to hassle with. I'll check the plow's alignment with the right side tires next week.

I thinks someone above was right that this plow was for a wheel horse slot hitch. I guess I have a homemade Cub to slot hitch adapter, so I can look out for wheel horse attachments. If you know of any near me, let me know.

I also bought tire chains today. I'll try them first before I spend $200 on Ag tires. This has been a pretty expensive few weeks of fun.

Thanks

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
