2 Deere subsoiler that recently came in on trade. You can buy new ones all day long, however, they won't compare to ones like this. Ken

OMG, I like that! I just bought a TSC one off craigslist for $40.00. I figured i would have to do some welding and make it stronger, but the price was good. I bet thats one heavy mother!:creep:

Brian, Weight wise, It is all 1 man can handle. The reversible point has only been used on 1 end and not much at that. Ken

YOUR MY HERO KEN!
I've been looking for one like that for ages....How much you asking for it?
Would you mind taking measurements of it? I started getting materials together to build my own "iMatch Ready" one because I feel like you...they dont make em like that anymore.

BTW thats a JD/Killefer Model 22A-0C Ripper

Dave I need $425 for it. The leading edge of the beam is showing hardly no wear. The machine is Category 2 and from lynch pin hole to lynch pin hole (center to center) measures 36 inches and 14 inches from the centerline of the crossbar up to the A-Frame top link mast hole. Ken

Too big for my 3520, but I've been trying to talk my FIL into finding a 3pt for his 430C to make a setup like this... One of them chicken & the egg things..he didnt want a 3pt because he had no need (no ripper) and now we find a ripper a 3pt is what we need :)

My biggest question (dont rush/I'm in no rush) was on the 2 main side plates...
A) What angle do they come off of the main tube?
B) How wide are they?

I wen tout to look at my cheap $40.00 dollar one and take some measurments to see if I could get that one to work with Cat 1. I don't get why Deere makes the 4x20 Cat 1.... Long and short, you have one nice unit compared to the Chinese stuff!

We are in Central, KY with 2 stores. one serves KY from Munfordville 42765 (On Interstate 65 about 1 hr south of Louisville, Ky) and the other is in the country at 42722 and all we do is ship out of state very inexpensively. What is your zip and I can give you a quote and you can figure your options. Ken Sweet
