I would need to know how this guy operates. Is his equipment well maintained, does he seem to run his tractors hard? A five shank ripper is not too much for a 4955 FWA. But, if you rent it by the hour, and he tends to run things at the limit, he could run it a couple of gears beyond what is reasonable to lower his cost. If he was trying to use an inadequately powered 1486 on that ripper it is a good sign he overloads stuff. If you can control the situation by defining the proper gears and engine speeds for the desired depth and you have confidence he will adhere to them, I would probably rent it. I vagely remember something like a dollar for each horsepower hr. Assuming 7 acres/hr rate that would cost him 28.50/acre tractor rental plus fuel which seems a little high. Perhaps the 7 acres/hr is too conservative.
