Low disturbance subsoiler

[dirty harry]

Just thinking along the lines of a ld subsoiler? Got an old cousins which is great at disturbing blackgrass! Thinking of going through with carrier then running an ld subsoiler through tuff bits & headlands etc?
Also got a sumo & whilst great it’s noticeably worse blackgrass this time?
Which are good makes? Need a 4m+ folding one,
he-va do one with ld legs but are they too far apart , weaving ld, tilso advantage etc?
Any experiences views welcome!
Cheers dh

What about putting ld legs in your sumo? I put some in mine last year and was very pleased with the results.

We put Tillso ld legs on our cousins v form. Worked ok. Going to try a Grange ld subsoiler this autumn, they look good.

We replaced the old cousins Roman nose job with some Metcalf's legs and points. Not specifically chosen to disturb less, however in practice much less surface disturbance , less hp to pull, less fuel. Paid for themselves at least twice in one summer.

Used the Sumo GLS and it’s a good machine but not really low disturbance even at 4km/hr. See pics.

I get the points from Mdt, I think they are classed as sumo gls points. I got Agriweld to cut the legs for me. They weren’t cheep but I’m very impressed with the lower disturbance than standard sumo legs.
