Picked up a KK Middle Buster yesterday at TSC and it works great! Got a couple pics for you to look at. Will be making a modification on the top link connection point on the impliment so it will go deeper than 9 inches. The nose levels out at that depth. As you can see I don't have rocks.:rolleyes:

How many passes to get those results?

That's what I would like to know as well. Plus, how much bite was each pass and what size is your tractor? (okay, call me blind, just saw you have a 750 :eek:)

1st pass about 7 inches
2nd and 3rd pass about 1 inch each (due to cutting point leveling out)
You are looking at about a 10 inch deep ditch

After my mod this week end I think I'll be able to get 14 inches in 2 passes. Will let you know and will have pics.

Well here are pictures of the mod. Did a little more than the top link change. Also decided to add a little weight to it. Take the front end weights and hang them on the back.. As for depth, I can get 12 inches now. Draft arms just about bottomed out.;)
