Purple Wave auctions frequently feature a variety of rippers, including V-rippers, in-line rippers, and disk rippers. Popular brands such as John Deere, Case, Big Ox, Blue Jet, and Great Plains are often available. You'll find models suitable for different farm sizes and soil conditions.

When evaluating a ripper, consider factors such as the overall width, number of shanks, shank spacing, and maximum working depth. Also, look at features like hydraulic lift capabilities, leveling systems, and tire conditions. Purple Wave provides detailed specifications for each item, helping you make an informed decision.

V-rippers have shanks arranged in a V-shape, which helps reduce draft and fuel consumption. They're great for breaking up compacted soil layers. In-line rippers have shanks arranged in a straight line and are typically used for deeper tillage operations. Both types are available in various Purple Wave auctions.

Purple Wave provides detailed item descriptions, multiple high-quality photos, and sometimes videos of the equipment. We also offer inspection periods for many items. All auctions are no-reserve, meaning the highest bid wins, ensuring a fair and transparent process for all buyers.

While maintenance records vary by seller, Purple Wave encourages sellers to provide as much information as possible. This may include service history, recent repairs, or known issues. Always review the full item description and contact the auction team if you have specific questions about an item's history.

When buying a used ripper, pay attention to the condition of critical components such as shanks, coulters, and hydraulic systems. Check for any signs of excessive wear or damage. Also, consider the ripper's compatibility with your tractor's horsepower and hydraulic capabilities.

The right size depends on your tractor's horsepower, field conditions, and desired working depth. As a general rule, you'll need about 30-40 horsepower per shank. Purple Wave listings provide the overall width and number of shanks, helping you match the ripper to your tractor and operational needs.

While Purple Wave doesn't provide shipping, we can assist with recommendations for transport companies. Many buyers choose to transport items themselves or hire local haulers. Always factor in transportation costs when bidding, especially for larger implements like wide rippers.

Purple Wave regularly features rippers in our agricultural equipment auctions. The frequency can vary, but you can typically find rippers available throughout the year. Check our upcoming auctions or set up alerts for specific types of rippers to stay informed about new listings.

Many rippers come with additional features like rear hitches, transport lights, or leveling systems. Some may have interchangeable points or wings. Purple Wave listings detail these attachments, helping you understand the full value and capabilities of each ripper up for auction.

• Carefully review the ripper specifications, including overall width, number of shanks, and shank spacing, to ensure it matches your tillage needs and tractor capabilities.
