Trenching Spike

[Rob-D]

Here is a better deal. A combination setup. It is a subsoiler, or a middle buster, or a hitch for towing trailers. Years ago, I purchased this combination for $150

I've never had the subsoiler. I'm wondering how deep it goes and how well the path is cleared?

Thanks,
Rob

Mine is pretty big, the 3720 can only lift the tip of it about 4" off the ground with the top link at its shortest at the lowest mounting hole in the tractor. It actually does a really great job with making a nice, clean trench. I made a trench last winter with it along our driveway for water run off and the driveway didnt require maintanace once. Very useful implement to have around.

If the subsoiler will stay in the ground up to the bar, you have cut through the dirt. We use something like this to pull PVC and wire through the ground. You might not go so deep on the first pass, but if there are no roots in the way or rocks, it should be an easy pull

Thanks for the tips guys, I'll give one a try.
