I'm interested in knowing more about the toolbar cultivators and attachments. What size cultivators are there for D47U and D2s. What other attachments are there? I've never seen a factory Cat cultivator. Are they rare?

Here is a brochure on the tools bars and attachments used on the D2,4,6.
Although the tool bars are not all that common I wouldn't consider them to be all that rare.....at least not on the West Coast, Ca.
Some of the attachments I have never seen.

Great pictures! I hope to have one soon. The rubber tires on the cultivator are guage wheels, they cat be set to different depths, or is there another hydraulic cylinder to set the guage wheels?

Gauge wheels are only manually adjustable, not hydraulic. With gauge wheels, I expect you are supposed to put the hydraulic control in it's "float" position so the toolbar can follow the contour of the ground properly.
D2-5J's, D6-9U's, D318 and D333 power units, 12E-99E grader, 922B & 944A wheel loaders, D330C generator set, DW20 water tanker and a bunch of Jersey cows to take care of in my spare time:D

according to tool bar manual, always use float position for all tools in the ground. some tools (like subsoilers) don't use gauge wheels and those tools tobe angle of attack adjusted to set its depth.
