V ripper

[urbancase]

Hey guys I bought this v ripper on a auction few years ago, want to use this year but the is no mfg tag on it as it has one broken shank and one that been welded, going to take a good one off and have 3 new water jetted at the shop. How ever the replaceable tips have not tried look up but I figured one of you guys might know who made this and would give me a place to start, I put a pic of the dealer that sold it. Not sure if they’re still around or not but figured give it a shot with the group. Thanks ahead of time for the help.

Jennings Implement used to be home to Minneapolis Moline pulling guru Harold Jennings. Story goes MM corporate gave him a new G1000 and told him to see what he could make it do. Many modifications made it very competitive and he pulled it many years.
I think the tractor is still in Illinois somewhere

Those shanks sure are flimsy for a deep ripper.

Yea I won’t disagree with you, about 18 inches is the deepest it could go, my M and W I can can get around 26 inches I am going to see what it will do in spring.

You might try Agrifab or even Tractor Supply.

Deep ripping best be done in the fall when it's dry out. 15 inches deep would be plenty.

Yea I am changing back from no till last 20 plus years. To going back to some tillage, bought a 876 versatile last week, this unit I plan to use in spring and my deep M&W that 5 shank will use in fall. Going try this for a few years and see how it goes. We had so much rain the last few years that this past year I had 15 acres of beans abort and too late to replant.

Should be able to look on tractor house and find the model. I had a 3 shank. Sold it 9 years ago. I’m thinking I bought points from shoup.

I think what you have is also an M&W product. The point you found at Nichols is for M&W and I found a picture on Tractorhouse of an Earthmaster 1165 disc ripper that uses the same shanks. I haven't found a picture of just a plain M&W ripper yet, though.
