Worn parts costing you at seeding?
Sloppy bushings, rounded-off seed boots, and mud-packed gauge wheels quietly wreck your seed placement long before they fail outright. Replace the high-wear parts with ones built to outlast the originals.
Sound familiar?
- Seed depth wandering from worn openers or loose bushings
- Seed boots rounded off and placing seed inconsistently
- Gauge wheels packing with mud and losing depth control
- Replacing the same OEM parts every single season

Fitting Aricks wheels has enabled me to sow longer at night and earlier in the morning in damp conditions, that’s something I couldn’t have done without them.

I love my MudSmith Gauge Wheels. Sure does save time on clean up. Have a few hillside seeps that never dry up till late July, and these wheels self clean and keep going.

Common Questions
How do I know when to replace seed boots?
When seed placement gets inconsistent or the boot is visibly rounded or worn, it's time. Worn boots drop seed at the wrong depth and spacing.
Why do my gauge wheels pack with mud?
Solid-rim wheels trap mud and debris. An open-rim design lets soil fall through, so the wheel keeps turning and holds depth.
Are aftermarket disc-drill parts worth it?
Heavy-duty aftermarket parts are often built from tougher materials than OEM, so they last longer and cut down on repeat replacements and downtime.
