making twins

does anybody know of a web site I could get info on connecting two tractors . Ive seen pics on shows that explained why farmers would put two together for added power (one in front of the other) and have heard there where only a few people that where common to go to for this but don't know who they are
 
Might want to contact Don Dufner up @ Buxton ND.

A lot of tandom tractor hitches were made by farmers. My dad and I built a hitch to hook two tractors togather about 1963. Now having said that there were some local machine shops building them also. Ficklin Machine Shop (the wagon box people from Onarga, Il.) made some, also M & W in Gibson City, Il. and Puzey Bros. at Fairmont, Il. may have made some also. One farmer had an articulated frame with both front wheels removed and you drove from the rear tractor that I think was built in In. Most tandom hitches you drove the front tractor (front tractor had steering wheels, rear tractor did not). I do not have my old hitch but I do have two Ficklin hitches not mounted. Hopefully some others will be able to add to this discussion. If you wish I will try to post pictures this weekend. Armand
 
Go to search and type in TxAllisman re: tandomtractorviedo Should be a viedo about a dealer in Alberta Canada I THINK that made some articulated tractor hitches. Let me know if you find the video. Armand
 
Try contacting the Parrie Farm report I understand they have a video covering the two tractor connected together [Winnipeg Canada] They are also on TV every Sunday approximately 2/30 ..Great looking machines A lot of great farming ideas Barney
 
Guy Named Grant Cutting in Chippewa Falls WI has a pair of Allis tractors twinned up. Not sure the models. You can email me for his number.
