My subsoiler has a 36" shank.....I built it. 24" of penetration is all my little tractor can handle and that"s in 4 WD and the FEL raised all the way up, to distribute the weight evenly over the wheels. It doesn"t spin much as long as the draft control is properly adjusted.
The reason I sank it as deep as it would go, is due to one section having a wet spot and I want to channel that water away. Furthermore, I know this ground hasn"t ever been subsoiled and the hardpan was like rock.
As for seeing the ground move..hehe, it"s weird to see it hove up 6 inches high and out a foot on either side of the trench. I was always told to SS when it is dry...as this causes the ground to shatter better.....and, I believe it. Sometimes, clods the size of footballs will roll out.
Yes, it would be nice to own some monstrous tractor that would play with a SS"er. I have a pal with a gorgeous rebuilt JD 4630...that would be fun to watch it toy with a single shank SS"er.....you reckon it would handle it!!!?
