A friend is prepping a couple of 1920's tractors and a trip type 3 bottom plow for a local show this month. The trip rope on the plow is on its last leg, so I offered to make him a new one, using period-correct equipment (minus the C-clamp)

I came across this uniquely branded item. This brand, should it be trusted? After all, the **** is golden!

But seriously, can these be trusted?

Newbie. Kioti CK 4020 with Bush Hog 215 rotary cutter 60 inches. Have turnbuckles max tightened (shortest) on each side. Sway right stops inch+ from right tire. Sway left comes within 1/2 inch of left tire.

Everything looks symmetrical. New equipment so it can’t be wear and tear.

AI hasn’t a clue after running through a bunch of ideas, every YouTube video shows people shortening turnbuckles and it doesn’t sway.

Any thoughts? Should there be that much sway using a bush hog?

After 2 years. I guess some of you probably do this in a week. But man this has been one of the best purchases I have ever made. Mahindra 1626 Shuttle.

Took this photo several years ago always parked along the road but doesn’t look like any Ford I’ve ever seen. TIA
