@@mmkmike thanks. Your not kidding especially one handed and it was real hot that day. It always goes right on when no one's watching 😂

@@Thirdplace4life WOW yours must me higher geared. This one only has 1 forward speed and I'd me scared to drive the stick steer at 22 mph lol

@@RickaramaTrama-lc1ys thanks for watching I appreciate the support.

@@bl688 I've had this problem with my 3020 also. It would get stuck in park. I found that either from the factory or from someone working on the tractor the cable where it connects to the park arm on passenger side of transmission was at a bad angle and would not allow it to pull the park arm out of park. I switched the cable to the other side of the clamp and that helped a lot. Also sometimes if parking on a slope it puts pressure on the transmission. If say you are pointing downhill force the shifter into reverse 1 and slowly release the clutch to release pressure off transmission. Then if pointing uphill use forward 1. Try that and see if that helps. 👍

@@bl688 as far as the PTO brake it uses hydraulic pressure and mine always spins when starting tractor for a few seconds until pressure is built up. Not sure what it would take to fix yours if it never stops.

@@nathancutts4319 surprised how many people ( myself included) cuss the electric transfer case because they don't know this. Been around these trucks all my life and didn't know until recently.

@@geraldosteen2357 thank you I appreciate it. The heavy iron is nice but for some small jobs sometimes I'd like to also have a 50hp like yours. Would be nice to have something I can throw on a trailer and haul easily. Thanks for watching I appreciate the comment. 👍

@@robertmoulton2656 the foot throttle may have been a option but if it was it was a very very rare option. Haven't seen very many at all with a foot throttle. The PS transmission stayed essentially the same with a few small updates but the biggest improvement was the quad range which is a good transmission but would of been fantastic if they would of made the reverse speed slower. Great comment thanks for watching 👍

@machineryd2765 for pushing snow and loader work I find often the high-speed reverse is kind of nice. The tractor I have now only does 6.2 mph in reverse and it seems dreadfully slow. I sure can appreciate the battery changes you've made on the tractors it makes really good sense🙂

@@robertmoulton2656 thanks 1 group 31 battery really cuts down on the problems. I could see in many situations how the fast reverse could be a benefit. For me when you are in say b1 or b2 which is a very common gear say brushhogging and you want to back into a corner if you pull directly down to B reverse 1 you were going 5-6mph forward but your reverse speed is now 7-8 mph. So I usually have to make another shift going from b range to a range so I don't slip the clutch or go backwards at a crazy speed. This is the only thing I feel the syncro has on the quad. In the syncro 5th and the reverse down from 5th is about the same speed. Same with 3rd and 3rd reverse. You can idle down to try to match the speed some but not ideal when doing pto work. But having 16 gears in the quad is a big upgrade if you don't reverse frequently. My loader tractor is a 3020 powershift and I really enjoy it for a loader tractor. You can be a little tougher and shift quicker with a powershift and not worry about missing the gear like a syncro with some age on it. Thanks for the comment. I enjoy hearing others opinions.

@@mikelembke5121 I'm sure they are nice when they work but needing a laptop vs a cresent wrench when they do break down with rain on the way is a big disadvantage. Plus all the electronics and added systems break downs are bound to be more common. When all the pre admissions equipment is completely woren out and not fixable we are in trouble

@machineryd2765 the parts for 4020's are still available, should have parts for 4430's yet, the new tractors the son inlaw got are junk, all that electronics is nuts,I told him I would take a 6030 over the new 8320's any day, when the new ones break down you have to wait till JD comes and gets it and fixes it,not even 6 months old

@@mikelembke5121 yep 90% are still available hopefully it stays that way.

WOW I bet you could tell some interesting stories. Very cool you got to see some experimental stuff. In my area it is now mostly caseih and Deere. We used to have some Massey but the dealership closed along with support for Massey. It is true Ferguson before the Massey- Ferguson merger did bring us the 3 point hitch. And it's also worth noting Deere wouldn't have been the first with a powershift transmission if Ford would have listened to their own engineer. Although I think other manufacturers at the time had some components of their tractor better than Deere the Deere's of that time seemed to be a better overall package. I appreciate you spending your time to watch my videos and it's enthusiasts like you that make this worth it. I truly appreciate the comment. 😊

@@waynejones5239 thank you I appreciate it

Mines a 71 also. Been very good to me

Got one to your exactly right

If you use a pump it’s no trouble

Yeah as I was saying in the video with a funnel and 5 gallon bucket the platform gets pretty full.

That's a good idea

@@Farmer_1776 it’s a good idea but not everyone has access to a pump. Most people probably buy the buckets

@@machineryd2765 yes sir

@@tacdad1034 thank you! The 4320 is my favorite to run as long as it's not 100° baling.

@@alexjrtony350 yes that is how mine is. I've been meaning to look and see if maybe the previous owner installed a 6.0 cooler because I've never seen trans temp over 190° even towing over 20k pounds in 100° weather

@@machineryd2765 Yea I mentioned that because shortly after buying mine I was towing about 9k lbs and had another 500 or so in the bed and it got hot to the point of dumping about 8 quarts of fluid out of the transmission bell housing. Thankfully once it cooled down I added what was needed and continued on with my trip. Drove another 700 miles and didn't have any hiccups. I now have a Mishimoto trans cooler in the box waiting to be installed lol.

@@alexjrtony350 yeah I've heard it's common. I'd say mine has been upgraded because it stays oddly cool. Buddy has a 2000 which goes in transmission as well and he's seen 230 on occasion.

@@actZR900 yeah I was looking at it from a mechanical standpoint but you are right the new generation tractors definitely look great. Thanks for watching I appreciate the comment 👍

@machineryd2765 40 isa way better overall machine. I get it. Just stating that visually... 20s are 👌

@@actZR900 agree 💯

My pleasure thank you for watching 👍

@@frrapp2366 yes the 10 series had the 3rd reverse unlocked from the factory. You can shift ranges while moving but it can be hard on the transmission. Thanks for watching

@@MusicandTractors I appreciate it. Thanks for watching

@@oldironfarms929 that's a good option and available in a bais. Good find at the auction that size is very expensive new.

@@michaeltrinkle4197 no problem thank you for watching. I agree with everything you said 100%. I think bias 38s will make me a lot more comfortable. I researched the heck out of it before going to 42s and going to radials. I found very little negative comments about this setup so hopefully someone finds this video and saves some headaches. Thanks for the kind comment, I appreciate your support 👍

@@justinsefcik4980 thank you I've always loved the old slow clattering 7.3s

Bias tires are still very available and in my area 75% or more tractors run bias. I may believe that radials have more traction on a side slope but in my experience they make the tractor less stable and more apt to rollover. We don't have a problem sliding on side slopes. Rollovers are the concern. Some manufacturers deep down in the literature say not recommended for side slopes

@@machineryd2765It's rare to see tractors driving across slopes here in UK, everyone seems to go up and down slopes, I've always done that, I used to have dual wheels on extreme slopes. Duel wheels are very rarely used nowadays on modern tractors, wide single wheels now. Duel wheels can't be used on public roads here. Different countries have different ideas, what works for one doesn't work in others. I see your tractors are 2wd, are they even made now. Perhaps available for special orders. Don't get them here at all, with tractor speed rising, they are 50 kph so have to be 4wd. Mine is restricted to 55 kph, transmission is 60 kph .

@@Feilding8187 when possible we go up and down hills also but sometimes there are trees or ditches at the bottom and or top of the field so no flat area to turn around if going up and down. The UK definitely got mfwd a lot sooner than the US. I believe that was because the US it is legal to run duals over width on the road so the demand was less. These tractors are year 1971 and 1980. John Deere didn't offer true mfwd until 1983. You can still get 2wd tractors but mfwd is definitely more popular now. You mentioned how narrow my tires are compared to what you use there. Hear a lot of farmers use narrower tires to be able to drive between the rows in rowcrop applications. I don't do rowcrop but the 18.4 ( 480/80) are most popular making them the most available and cheaper. Thanks for the comment it's interesting to see the differences in our applications. 👍

@@rogersavdy6022 it varies depending on mph. This truck has 410 gears and the high rpms kills mpg. If I just drove county roads at 35-40mph I've gotten 20, driving mostly at 45-50 mph about 18mpg. At 55 it gets about 16-17. But get on the interstate and run 70-73 it gets 13-14. With this truck rpm is everything. Go above 2k and it drinks fuel

​same w my fsuperduty dump zf5/4.10's . 60+ glug glug glug LOL!! 6.0 IC setup, kc turbo n 180/30's.

If you watched the video I said radials are better for traction, ride, and wear. I said they are worse for hillsides and sidewall penetration. I even said if you are in Iowa ( flat ground) and are doing rowcrop ( loose dirt) go with the radials. Did I miss something here?? 😂
