ETA Subsoiler

[Sysop]

That is what I originally thought you said you bent.
that is the main 3/4"x6" x48" ripper.

I wonder if ETA deviated from the original old design.
they told me their main 48" ripper shank is A36.

Just got off the phone with Travis at EverythingAttachments setting up the shipment of a replacement beam, he told me that in talking to Ted he was pretty sure Ted said it is actually A516.

I talked to my really smart friend and he said A516 has a slight yield advantage over A36 (5.4M versus 5.2M lbs/ft at .75") but that it's main benefit is a touch of Manganese for better corrosion resistance.

"Backhoe"?

Bend that plate back straight and dig it out with the subsoiler. Karma should be a witch!

New part arrived yesterday from ETA (thanks guys!) and I took the old one apart, the shearbolt wouldn't come out. Once I got it out, it had sheared about half way before the side pressures became so great it created the bend. Soon as I locate another grade 2 I'm back in business.

You're like that guy in that movie: Nothing goes over his head, his reflexes are so fast he would catch it.
