tsc subsoiler question

[257NH]

Has anyone tried to bolt up a tsc middle buster blade to a tsc subsoiler?If so was it a direct fit?I ordered the middle buster part and I'm just curious what I'm in for.

I think that the bolt pattern is the same. I have the middlebuster so does RedBug but I have not unbolted the tooth and replaced it with the middlebuster.

I need to got the other way... bolt a sub-soiler blade in place of a middlebuster plow.

Any update from the OP?

I've got both - meaning not the one where you can bolt on either, but 2 separate. can go out and look if that would be helpful

I am interested in this also. The other day when I was at TSC, I looked at the subsoiler and if I remember right it appeared that the bolt pattern was different than the middlebuster they had setting ~15' away. Something was different but I didn't take measurements or anything.

Well I put it together earlier tonight,not a dead nuts fit but close enough for me.I suppose if you wanted to you could elongate one hole 1/8 inch or so to make it perfect.

Thanks for sharing. That is the KK brand subsoiler with the middlebuster right? Maybe the wife won't notice a small implement out with all the other junk.

hi ray,I'm pretty sure it says farm force on it,but it is from tsc.

You purchased the TSC subsoiler, wonder where you got the plow portion to bolt onto it. Also wonder if TSC sells just the replacement piece for the subsoiler.

I have purchased the plow from them, but did not see any subsoiler piece. I Was told they could order it, but I failed to do so when there. He compared the Farm Force unit with the KK unit and gave me the song and dance that they were absolutely the same.. Another salesmen is how I viewed that. KK will not take any ownership of Farm Force products.

So, the bolt pattern is the same. Or at least close enough to work.

Are the vertical shafts the same length from the draft links down to the business end?

Charlesaf3, if you could go measure yours, that would be mighty appreciated.

Thanks,

If you're talking about one of those yellow KK middle busters, I can't help you there. I own one of those red KK XB middle buster/subsoiler combos ($140 from TSC).

FWIW, the bolt holes in that XB unit mate with the holes on an arrowhead sweep that I got from Agri-Supply.

I prefer this sweep to the subsoiler to cut trenches for landscape irrigation PVC pipes.

yes, it is. I have bought several different sizes of sweeps from TSC and they have the same hole spacing. I eye balled a few others that did not seem to fit.
