I am rebuilding a 1500 Min-Til. It is a 11 shank but the extention shanks and holders are busted up. Will use the 7080 in medium to heavy soil. Land is not WI hilly. Would I be happier at 9 shanks? Or will I have enough gusto to take the 11 and run? Looking at a 7580 so did not want to cut it down too much. Thanks....Dale

At one time while still doing tillage here I pulled an IH 6000 disc chisel with a 7060, 10 shanks were "enough".

I pull 2 kewanee 11 shank with 3.5" twisted shovels with my 7040, 7060, and 7080, at about 10 or 12" deep.
