2+2 Chisel Plowing First Time

May 21
preparing the area for vegetables. Manure was just spread on the top section, really does not aid traction. Probably rained the next day.

[@ianthomas3938]

Hello Boehm Farm .I like the workhorse.I would even say she's GORGEOUS!!.Keep up the good videos . Thank you. From Wales.

[@koryleague8833]

Sure made that cornfield Cadillac grunt a few times

[@Northern_Farmer]

Need some Duals on that thing!!

[@paulmccallum4229]

sure would look cooler

[@boehmfarm4276]

I have them, still need to put them in. Being long is enough of a challenge to get it inside.

[@leesteele9290]

Demoed a brand new 2+2 the fall of"77" I think , I just remember this that was the longest hood I've ever seen on anything !! I couldn't drive straight because I just wanted to follow it where ever it was pointed Hahaha! Glad you're getting a little work done! Thanks for the video!!

[@davidwhittredge3416]

So much for that big red power! Should have found an Allis! lol

[@jimsonbrown9768]

David Whittredge : plenty of power. Needs the duals put back on.

[@Gixzer04]

Said no one ever ....

[@jwhitley101whitleyfarms9]

Take the duals and weight of the Allis and you get the same thing a spinning tractor

[@RemembranceFarmsLLC]

Still such a good sounding tractor. Nice little lean to the back where it was really biting in. For not having any liquid in the tires and no duals, it was connecting really well. I know this was back on May 21st, so hopefully everything went in all good.

[@boehmfarm4276]

manner? Did well until it hit the fresh manure.

[@dehavenfamilyfarm]

Some tough ground there. She'd really be a monster with duals on!

[@America-First2024]

Great tractor!! Looks strong!

[@mountainman7782]

Sounds really good! Maybe putting on duals might help just a little

[@boehmfarm4276]

The upper area just had manure applied right before plowing.

[@larrybrewer6924]

And locking the differential would help also

[@hturbo1007]

Duals would make that tractor pull so much better. 👍

[@Farmall450]

And some weight

[@burffarms5957]

Great video Jacob.

[@MustangsTrainsMowers]

It would be interesting to see a video about the development of the 2+2, if there is such a video. I’m guessing that it originally it wasn’t going to have such a long nose. The last tractor that was bought for my family’s farm was a new 3388 2+2. I got to put probably 50 hours on it including driving down public roads. It had the auxiliary lights option and digital dashboard. We wish it had rear differential lock and auxiliary fuel tank on the rear. It was still nice.

[@farmworkMi]

So awesome to see her working great proud of you guys

[@boehmfarm4276]

Thank you

[@drdraws9597]

Take that compaction, lol! Looking good.

[@farmworkMi]

I'd love to see the junk yard tour all those hidden jems next to this feild

[@apn42]

You would benefit greatly by using the tractors draft control instead of trying to adjust the chisel plough depth manually. Both in reduced fuel usage and better work quality. Very nice tractor btw.

[@redneckyt2860]

One don't work

[@loganlawrencefarms8356]

Gardening on the next level

[@donald1056]

That tractor is working very good - 4x4 working good also

[@walterlaubscherjr2011]

In the future for bigger implements for the 2+2 what kind of disc or chisel are you looking at

[@boehmfarm4276]

Looking for a 20'+ disc. Or a soil finisher. Probably will stay with the chisel plow awhile.

[@donvoll2580]

Good day Boyu that tractor did not put apuff of black smoke. Nice video. Thanks

[@I_Itch]

Did u replace clutch?

[@floydblack3038]

What happened to the 2×2 that u don't show it? Or the blue 4×4?

[@mrih1586]

Enjoyed your video. But damn, how many shanks you pulling? Is there no fluid in the tires? Surprised by lack of traction. Not knocking you or your tractor. Just surprised. We pulled 11 shanks with a 1586 in 4th or high first. Turned up to around 200 pto hp, fluid in the duals and seldom knew it was back there. Is your soil just that wet and compacted? I really am a fan and not a hater in spite of the way this post came off. Best of luck. You're a hard working young man.

[@boehmfarm4276]

Fresh manure on it and dry tires. And its heavy clay, like they made bricks 100 yards from where this video was taken. 12 shanks

[@mrih1586]

@@boehmfarm4276 Thanks for your reply. After a little research I see that tractor doesn't have the power or the weight I thought it did. We have a lot of red clay here. Inner and outer weights. Plus fluid in the tires are a must for heavy pulling. And yes I know about making brick.

[@boehmfarm4276]

2+2s are light and and front wheel assist 86 series with a better turn radius than a coleman front axle.

[@patrikpersson5347]

Yep.. Defiantly a magnificent sight

[@farmark457]

Was the slipping clutch a surprise or did you buy it suspecting that? Thx

[@boehmfarm4276]

It was not expected. I guess I didn't stand on the breaks hard enough while driving up and down the seller's driveway.

That's my dream tractor.

[@Derek_00Mustang83]

Snoopy getting a workout!!

[@walterlaubscherjr2011]

Man that 2+2 was getting it done do you ever think at some point you’ll get a pull type chisel? Or will you get a bigger 3 point chisel if they make thoses

[@boehmfarm4276]

I like the three point chisel a lot. But a disc chisel could be nice. Right now, I have an obsession with finding a 4or five bottom roll over plow. We typically have thorough ground cover in the spring that chisel plowing can make a real mess of.

[@Farmall450]

Same size duals as the 14?

[@boehmfarm4276]

Yes

[@ihguy2113]

you should take the doors off it for factory A/C i think

What a beast,RED power!!!

[@christian9125abd]

how i the 2+2 doing right now?

[@brentanderson5618]

It look like the chisel plow wasn't level it might have pulled easier if it was but it could just be the way it showed up in the video

[@coryarcher1766]

Excellent 💪💪💪💪

[@PAYNEKILLER..]

RIP 2+2 😥

[@griffinwiegert527]

Hey! Just came across your channel and recently subscribed. Are you guys seeming to have decent power with that 2+2? I keep hearing that they are kind of gutless and whatnot. Do you guys seem to be doing okay with yours? I’ve got all John Deere at my farm

[@boehmfarm4276]

3*88 2+2s are extensions of 10, 14 and 1586s. What you have is an 86 series with mfwd, that turns tighter than the mfwd axles of the time. Farmers saw the big front tires and expected a 2+2 to be like a 4586. 2+2s weigh more than an 86, but the four large tires give it better floatation. Now I have a theory that IH didn't send these out from the factory already turned up because of farmers taking out 86 series rear ends; they left more room for error when the farmer turned the screws. It's like a father having a daughter and being disappointed she's not a boy... just wrong expectations.

[@jwhitley101whitleyfarms9]

@@boehmfarm4276 I think you should add fluid to the tires I know you said you want the ability to park in the barn just fill the four tires and that will be all your going to need

[@ghenry85]

The 2+2 was thinking that disk was a toy! Lol. But that chisel kept it honest. I saw your reply about your search for a disk for the big girl and was wondering if you ever disk deep, or if you do all the deep tillage with the chisel?

[@boehmfarm4276]

Chisel does the deep tillage. Sometimes we'll just disk a field and not chisel when we're short on time.

[@mariuszb8266]

Why farmers in US use narrow tires instead of wide in thier tractors?

[@lukestrawwalker]

Because they can run duals on the highway and be legal, which ain't the same as Europe. Wider tires are WAY more expensive as well. Plus most guys like straddle duals for row crop work; wide tires don't work in row crops because they run down the crop. OL J R :)

[@johnnyholland8765]

Couple tips on articulated tractors....... Throttle down when turning and try to only do hard pulls going straight. It will save wear and tear in the driveline. Believe me it ain't fun changing them out and don't spare the grease gun. Lot of stress and strain in the hinge pins and stearing cylinders. Go ahead and put those duals on. It will make a big difference.

[@OldFarmAcresJoelK.]

nice!

[@jimsonbrown9768]

The duals need to go back on just because it makes it look badass.

That tractor couldn't have come along at a better time. Gonna put the duals off the 14 on it? Of course we're talking about almost a month back now, so you probably did...

[@boehmfarm4276]

The 2+2 came withdials. A bit of sad news, 2+2 needs a clutch for an heavier pulling.

[@jonathantarrant2449]

Sweet unit. Are you going to dual both front and back axles

[@SKC640]

Jonathan Tarrant screw duals, put some super wide singles on it and the preform should be awesome but definitely a cheater route would be duals and you still get some great performance.

[@jonathantarrant2449]

@@SKC640 unfourtunately to re-tire with 4 new wide singles it would cost more then this old girls worth. He already has 2 duals that came with the tractor and he could probably find 2 used decent tires and rims to put on a front set at an auction or salvage yard. Its horrible to have to put tires on an old tractor with the cost of tires atleast here in Canada.

[@scottviers2691]

Jonathan Tarrant You can't dual the front axle on a 3588 or 3788. They will hit the rear duals on full lock turning.

[@jonathantarrant2449]

@@scottviers2691 interesting. Thought l seen one dualed once. The 2+2 had a small appeance around here once along time ago. The axle stubs in the front appear long enough to accept dual, l would have thought it would have been possible. Obviously not.

I doubt you ll ever be one a side hill enough to flip that machine but just becareful if you ever are. I know it's a natural instinct to turn down the hill but being it's a pivot machine if you are ever about to flip never turn down the hill once the wheels come together it will topple over I know this is alittle random bit when I work in forestry I wish someone would of told be that right away haha. That machine looks like it's kicking some ass! How is it on fuel I imagine it actually is fairly decent.

Kind of like turning the skidder on a steep hill without logs on the back with the diff lock on it seems to want to ride that blade to the lowest point

justin whitley I use to work in forestry replantion and I used skidders but not for logging usually spraying and trenching and I have had some extremely close close especially with 500 gallons of spray on the back.

[@SKC640]

justin whitley I have 3 wheeled skidders to many times some sights I would get done and i would be shaking because of the side hills with trenching we could only let 10% of the site go untouched so I have driven them where nobody should take a machine haha

[@jwhitley101whitleyfarms9]

@@SKC640 we were pulling logs of this steep place and I was wincing the logs up to the skidder and the tree broke and jerked me off the hill it was like 45 degrees and I slid down over hundred feet and couldn't go up so I turned down hill put the blade down and kept the three logs winched up and just slid down to the bottom by the time I got to the deck I thought my hands were going to be stuck on that wheel man o man i have had several close calls but knock on wood i have been almost on my side but managed to keep from flipping usually by digging the blade into a group of small trees and stepping on the throttle hahahah

[@SKC640]

justin whitley it's a scary job I wish I could explain mine better since we use skidders but we are the only company in the states that does forest site preparation for replanting it's really popular in Europe but since we have to cover a whole site it gets alittle ridiculous what we have to drive over and through. I haven't flipped yet and had many close calls also the newer JD h series they decided to make a transmission code when it comes on locks the machine into neutral was going up a hill and that code came on and almost killed me! When we spray because of the chemicals sloshing around its just a matter of time before it flips on somebody I have seen it happen alot.
