[AJD] JD Model 52 Plow Question

[Dean VP]

LeRoy:

This isn't an easy question to answer. Most plow manuals don't reference the
bottoms used on them, but there are some of the older manuals which do such
as the model 51 & 52 manual but it doesn't list Syracuse bottoms. Also the
1942 Plow Repair Catalog has some references but it takes a while to
decipher the material.

To match plow points to moldboards requires the use of the earlier "Plow
Bottoms" Parts catalog PC 158 which doesn't reference a F1442 Moldboard but
does reference a 1442 Syracuse moldboard (three piece RH 12" bottom)

The shares that match with that moldboard all contain 1442 in their part
number as these are RH 12" shares. 

The shares you have listed are all LH shares except for the last which is a
RH Share (1441) but it is for a 14" plow. 

So from what best I can figure out none of the listed shares will match with
the 12" moldboard you referenced. There is a Repair catalog specifically for
Syracuse plows but I don't own one. 

BTW, if the shares available are in good shape and reasonably priced I would
suggest capturing them as the older style shares are made from unobtanium.
None made anywhere, anymore that I am aware of.

Was wondering if anyone had a Plow book that referenced Plow points to a
plow.  The plow I have has Syracuse 12 inch bottoms (F1442) and I'm
wondering if any of the following plow point would fit it:  X1342HF ds/DDS,
X1341FDS, X1342HF DS and X1441HF.  Can anyone help?
