For my subsoil plow the "foot" is set to a 10 degree down at the toe angle, and the top face is 10 degrees more than that for a total of 20. Since a 3 point hitch like mine cannot apply down pressure (can any of them?) I have to depend on those angles to pull the plow into the soil. I can run it at a 16 inch depth but when I am using it to snag boulders or uproot brush, I do not always want it to run full depth. If it changes angle I lose control. Now by changing the top link length I can still change the angle at various depths but mostly I want consistent down pressure regardless of depth. I can only get that if I design the top link attachment hole position correctly or invest in a pricey, I have to fiddle with it" hydraulic top link. and that is too much clap trap for what I need to do.
And yes it is possible to get a wider variety of different behaviours by having multiple top link holes. With the proper calculation ability one can design that into the device. As I have noted in the post I made just before this one.
Judging from the bulk of the posts I got above that, most people did not grasp just what it was I was doing. I am talking about designing an implement or altering one to increase its capability with just a bit of drilling and/or welding.
