Thanks for the quick response.
You can probably imagine trying to set one of these up by trial and error would be no fun as one can not see what is going on from the cab of the truck. Your description is very good. Thanks again. I think these figures will be a big help, and should definitely help out a lot of tractor/plow owners.
It is interesting that you talk about "off hitched" when the hitch is not centered up on the vehicle. The first generation of Monroe lifts made for the Power Wagons actually were offset to the passenger side by several inches. This offset created other problems so they settled upon a design that was centered at the back of the truck.
Note how the plows rockshaft (drawbar) in the attached image appears to be rotated quite dramatically. Forgy patented bases did not use any landsides, but I can make some temporarily out of wood for setting up per your measurements.
