[AT] WantedL Lilliston Rolling Cultivator

[Al Jones]

I have seen them before.  I don't think they are not the same as the
regular Lilliston spiders.  Looks like the wheels are more like a rotary
hoe.

If you just need the spiders, Agrisupply has complete spider gang
assemblies.  They also have an adapter to put them on the front  section of
a Super A or similar toolbar/cultivator.  For that matter I think I have an
old rusty set around here but they would need a total rebuild.
