The shanks are removable, so I'm sure when he needs to, he can have any number he needs for the application. I think his JD 5520 is about 90hp, which should pull pretty good in his soil.

It will make her grunt when I hit those spots of red clay. The removable shanks are a plus

I'm betting the tool is a bit under built. More of a heavy duty cultivator than a subsoiler. Think of the power needed to pull even one tine through heavy ground.
Deep subsoilers are usually limited to a single tine for many reasons.

But the nice thing about being a pessimist, is that one is left open to be pleasantly surprised! ;-)

Nice looking fabrication!

I agree. The OP has built a nice field cultivator.
A proper subsoiler looks like these:

Sub Soiler

BR,
I think your subsoiler is solid and will work well in your soil.:thumbsup: However, you can make it beefier lookin' by painting it RED.:D How much does it weigh?
hugs, Brandi

If you paint it red, you'd have to put Yanmar stickers on it:eek:
