I understand. But keep in mind to us just seeing the sweeps means field cultivator regardless of how it is built.
Exactly. That's what's throwing me off. Here if its got sweeps its a field cultivator. A disc chisel has a set of discs and then 5,7,9,11,13 or 15 shanks. A disk ripper has a set of discs then usually 5 or 7 shanks on a 2 foot spacing and then another set of discs. The you have the plain Jane chisel plow with just shanks...which almost no one runs around here btw. Here you either pull a disc chisel or a disc ripper.
