Use a chisel plow sized to the HP of your tractor then add a row of
coulter blades in front for turf cutting and you'll have it. Should
produce nearly the same results as the SS. The SS uses shanks similar to
those on the chisel plow, not subsoiler shanks, as far as I know.
This should be easy to weld/bolt together.
