Believe it or not, Earl -

I originally typed "the plow", not "a plow", but changed it 'cause I wasn't sure. IIRC, there are (or were) two or three plows that were relatively easy to swap from one K-36 or K-37 to another, and then there's #487's plow which is much less easy to remove and re-attach.
