[QUOTE="Gbrook, post: 7127492, member: 46356"] I talked with Stuart in Bourgault this morning and am going to follow a couple of his suggestions. The Bourgault leg, as you can see from the photos, has 2 pairs of holes for mounting to the Horsch leg. I used the upper pair as I could not get enough depth in the lower ones (this is probably due to the rear ram on the drill not closing fully). This pair also angles the coulter back slightly and is intended to reduce smearing by the back of the coulter in clay soils. That is not an issue here so I will change holes and straighten the coulter. I will also build up the excess wear above the tungsten tile on the front of the coulter and hard-face this. As Warksfarmer, says they will DD well into light soils. I have DD sown some covers in heavier ground that is normally ploughed and it's okay but would need cultivation first for cash crops for at least a few years. [/QUOTE]
