The local Tractor Supply chain stores or Southern States farm supply chains sell a wonderful SUBSTANTIAL Ripper for that money. I have concerns about that design holding up. I purchased a unit and used it well.

Thanks for the feedback. The only ones that I can seem to find available in Canada are the KingKutters. To be honest, they don't look a lot more sturdy than this one does!

I bought the $~150 subsoiler from Tractor Supply. For the same money as the eBay one, you get the whole sha-bang (no need to provide your own drawbar)

But ... Consider Agri Supply's:

Part #73410 Subsoiler $109.95
Part #73622 Pipelayer $59.95 ... attachs to the subsoiler

~$170 lets you directly bury cable or pipe without even touching the dirt!

Do you have a box blade? If so just lower one ripper and get the same results I think:thumbsup:

This was posted by Will in 2008. He used it to bury electric lines.

I bought a subsoiler from Tractor Supply ( I believe it's rebranded King Kutter )
so far it has held up very well . The tractor ( B7500 ) will come to a stop if I snag a thick root or rock . I just back up a touch and raise the implement and continue past .

I have used it in the garden , a couple of low poor drainage areas , and eventually to run a water line .
