Allan: Your friend is right. I had the same vibra shank as yours. When new I just bought the center section, 12.5' as I recall. I pulled it with 560 and 656, but even the 12.5' was a load for them if doing any depth. I think if I remember correctly wings added 6'. I know 1066 just played with it. It was a nice load for my 100 hp Deere. The part I didn't like with the Vibra Shank, was if you pulled it too fast it would start bouncing and leave the soil surface like waves on water. I hired a new guy once, put him on 1066 with 18.5' Vibra Shank with crumbler behind. My lead hand caught him about 4th trip down the field, making about 12 mph. He made him go back over those passes, didn't help. It was about two years before the waves disappeared. I was a bit fussy as I was running a rotation of 3 year corn and 4 years alfalfa. I liked the new S tine cultivators much better, they take more hp per foot, but it's worth it. As for the hardware for duals, you see them in most farm supply stores around these parts.
