Bolt on attachment stops chisel shank wear TILLAGE EUIPMENT Accessories 13-1-35 "We've been in the business of straightening chisel plow shanks for the past 7 years and have noticed the tremendous amount of wear that occurs just above the sweep. Our new shank savers eliminate the problem," says Larry Lambott, Fort Benton, Mont.
The bolt-on units are made of malleable cast iron and weigh 3.5 lbs. They protrude 6 in. above the top of the sweep and use a bolt that's 1/4-in. longer than normal to mount the sweep. Shank savers fit any model chisel plow shank with no modification and may be built up with weld as they wear down.
"We've field-tested them extensively with no problems at all. They work great," says Lambott. He sells shank savers for $7.95 apiece.
