Subsoiler with pipelayer

[thoner7]

Anyone have a good brand for a heavy duty subsoiler, and a place to buy it?? I’d like to find one with a shear pin, as I may be hitting some rocks (or bedrock) as I pull.

King Kutter has one for 650$ but there’s no shear pin.

I’ll also need a pipe layer attachment that can be added on.

I have the 4th one with a shear bolt.

Just noticed it doesn't work with the pipe layer, last line in descriptions...

I buried 350' of 1" pex last summer with a middlebuster... My wife walked behind and unrolled the pex into the trench, every 20' or so we'd stop and cover it up. She cost more in the long run than a pipe layer attachment and the tractor but if you already have one around...

Hmmm I’m not seeing any with a shear bolt on that page??

I installed about 300 feet of one inch irrigation pipe. Used a single bottom moldboard plow. Pipe in trench - do a partial cover every 20 feet or so. Then the cover job. Rear blade - offset and angled. All in all - it went very well.

So this water line will be for my house. It will have to be below my frost line, I’m hoping about 24” to be safely below it.

That looks nice but, what do you think about the pins? I always like the double sided enclosed connections. Those open ones always bend

I have a Homestead grapple and like it, but the price for that subsoiler seems crazy!

Doubtful your inexpensive single shank will go 24” deep. In looking both the bushhog & rhino “long shank” show work depth 23”
