Adjust the rear wheels to 68-inches between the tires - 34 inches to tractor center.

What are you mouting it on?

Joe, the 16.9-38 will get close to the husking unit. I had about a inch clearance on my 560 with BFG 16.9-38.  Also the 16.9 will be running close to the next row but they will work on 38 inch row and don't plant any closer.
The sub-frame for the rock shaft is the only way to go. It took me an hour to get mine hooked up the first time and it wasn't on concrete and I have never put a picker on in my life.  
How's the sheller? and do you want to sell one or both?

Joe, on the shellers look at the auger flighting and that will tell you how much they have been run. 

Take some pictures before you start to mount the picker and then after you have it on.  We like picture on this form.

Your shellers have the flinger attachment.  My sheller has one, they work great.  My sheller is not too many serial numbers newer than one of yours, 3812
