Disc harrow woes

[easydog]

So, to make a long story short, I had a little accident with my disc harrow which left me with a minimally bent harrow frame, and a pretty badly bent left side rear gang. It still pulls, but doesn't really dig well due to one corner being lifted up ~4 inches. I took off the bent gang and went to a metal fabricator locally who works on tractors to see if he could fix it. He said he could fabricate the whole thing, but pointed out the axle of the gang was totally worn down. He told me my money would be better spent on another disc harrow. Any idea how in the world I could source another harrow that attaches to the draw bar like this one? Should I buy an old similar harrow that's 3pt and adapt it to my old tractor? Should I buy one of these http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/ ... 009_404009 ? I'm in a fix......

Pictures please. I bet it's a King. You can probably buy a lot of aftermarket parts including the axle bolts from Agri-Supply although I have never bought any King parts. You could buy a three point hitch disk and then fabricate a hitch I guess.

Here it is Al. It is flipped over obviously so I could try to straighten the bent gang. Didn't work, but I did burn my concrete pad.

I looked up the ASC website. Looks like I might be able to find some parts to fix it as long as I get the frame rebuilt.

This is my opinion but I think I would rebuild the frame and go from there. If you feel like it's just too far gone, get your welder to price you what it would cost to build you a hitch for the new disk to allow you to use it on your tractor. EDIT: I just looked at your link. I would definitely fix your disk. The one from Northern Tool is way too light to do much!
