I was out plowing hit a rock and it tripped the moldboard,the pin is missing to hold it back in place,what is that pin called so I can try and find one? thanks

Not familiar with a 555 plow. Is this a 'shear bolt'? If so ,a regular grade 5 bolt is what is what is normally used.Get em anywhere that sells bolts.If this is a 'spring loaded' catch,then visit your JD dealer.

Are you sure it's gone and not just stuck up there? Ours used to get stuck up in there sometimes.

hey jon f mn,yep its stuck up there so how do you get it down? thanks

It's been near 40 years since I used that plow, but if I remember correct there is a cast tab that sticks out the rear that you can tap up on. Lube is a double edge sword there, lack of it causes that sticking, application of it causes easy tripping.
