That looks home made. Heavy duty for that little box!

You may need to do some measuring and possibly do some of your own fabrication.

What state are you in?

If I needed replacement shanks, personally, AgriSupply would be my first stop. They're a regional brand, though.

Like a brick **** house. Pretty nice looking welds, too.

They sell shanks at tractor supply and other farm stores. I’d just measure the holes and see if you can match up something.

Why do you say that?

You cant use the hole style shanks with that by the looks of it. It does look close to the design of a older hayse tooth ripper.

Well, all you need to do to pin some hole style shanks in place is cut some ~1/2-3/4" wide strips of angle iron, maybe 1 to 1.5" on a side, and weld them down on either side of the holes on that square tube with the points facing up, like an A. It looks like on the outer ones you might actually have to drill a hole through the side wall so that a pin inserted from the inside towards the outside wouldn't hit the wall, but that's no big deal. So, 8 small pieces of angle, 16 welds, maybe 2 holes. Would take 1-2 hours at a slow comfortable pace to be able to use the commonly available pin style shanks. I have seen them online for as little as $17/ea before shipping. On Amazon $119 shipped for 4 of em. link

With pics like this, how could you go wrong.

I wanna drive that tractor into water and see if it floats.. The jraphics on Vevor ads always crack me up.

How are the shanks supposed to be held in place on that box blade? I don't see any tabs for the locking pins that hold the shanks in place to go into.

Some brands use gravity to hold the pln:

I thought there were spring clips in that style? Those things sticking out diagonally in front of the shanks?
