Is The Sleigh Ready For Christmas? New Equipment For The Farm and A Pile Of New Parts!

[@nightrider6769]

Aaron been watching your show now for a while got to say I like the content and way it's delivered your dad is very knowledgeable and he explains things well I really do like your channel.

[@daleberghorn6504]

Merry Christmas to all of you keep doing the great videos you put out

[@christopherhenderson4820]

Hey Aaron,you might want to look at those dual hubs, the key way looks to fit the older IH tractors the 66,86,88 series. The Magnum series uses a taper lock hub with a different key way. We couldn’t use those style on our 7120. Nice tractor!

[@MichaelMoher]

Good luck to you my friend! It's good to see a young guy with his head screwed on straight being successful!! Always a pleasure to watch you and your Dad, Mother, Brothers and Wife. Thanks for taking us on your journey.

[@jeffgray479]

7140 started a lot better than my 5140 with the 5,9 cummins does, Congratulations on the Magnum.very pretty tractor! I can tell your proud and you should be!

[@MrBubbahunt9]

Those fuel additives get mixed in better if they are added before the fuel.. thanks for the post and merry Christmas

[@alfredomarotta6604]

**THANK YOU FOR THE YEAR OF AWESOME VIDEOS** Merry Christmas. Happy, healthy, prosperous, blessed, and wonderful New Year.

I like to add fuel condishner on a half tank of fuel then fill it up.

[@greghamann2099]

I loved the pride that you have with your new acquisition. I definitely want to see what you do with it from here on out.

[@davepatti2296]

Always been a big fan of Cummins engines in off-highway equipment, became a great replacement when Detroit Diesels were fading away. Small tip: I always pour the bottle in first, then pour in fuel. Mixes better I think. Now all diesels have return lines so when the engine is running some fuel is returning to the tank, thus mixing that way. That is one of many reasons that most guys let a diesel idle, some warmer fuel returns to the tank. You guys do a great job keeping all those machines well maintained.

100% steel weights. In the long run you’ll be glad you did. Fluid is a pain in the butt any time you need to do anything with a tire. If you have a fluid leak on a tire that money is gone. Steel weights will never disappear. With weights you can also add or remove weight whenever you want. ‘Do it right or do it twice’

[@chrisoliver9204]

I came here to the comment section to say exactly that.

[@terryquaintance3634]

a friend lost one of my 100 lb kubota weights while raking hay and never could find it, pretty sure it didn't go through the baler

[@kaiwoodke2394]

Plus it squats the tires so you get more for your weight

[@Ellison89Brett]

@@terryquaintance3634 so the bolts either broke or came loose. That’s a lack of maintenance, not a flaw of the weight.

[@onehappyfarmer3461]

@@chrisoliver9204. So did I. I don’t have a tire on the farm with fluid anymore. Calcium was the thing for a long time and there was a lot of wheels ruined over time.

[@case1020]

I used to have a trailer like that. Then i traded it for a gooseneck because i was tired of everyone borrowing it lol. Solved that problem real quick

[@glenschumannGlensWorkshop]

Thanks. Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@DonWelter]

It's always a plus to equip a tractor the way you prefer. Once you get through the initial modifications actual field use and experience will determine further upgrades. Merry Christmas to ALL of you folks.

[@suecrothers9041]

Enjoy the videos! Merry Christmas!

[@kevinschroeder3889]

Merry Christmas 🎁Aaron and family. Have a great Christmas.

[@lorengolliher2712]

For weight on the rear I would go steal inner and outer and then if you need more weight then you add fluid that's just my opinion I worked on heavy equipment and tractors for a lot of years and Arthur still keeps them young fluid make some rust but that's just one old mechanics opinion enjoy all the videos thank you and merry Christmas

[@crazyoldbat7600]

I sure miss those views. Farms, fields, sky.

[@lindadanielson7405]

Merry Christmas 🎁

[@stepheninherst8611]

We have switched all of our tires over to windshield washer fluid. You can get the consontrait and mix with water and it is a verry economical way to go

[@joshuanelson3990]

My dad and i have been to that ASAP Downing salvage yard. I don't know if they still allow it but they would let you walk around the salvage yard and look for the parts were looking for. It was fun to see all the old tractors and equipment .

[@williamwilson1486]

Ibi thank you for sharing your videos and time with us all. I wish you all a very merry Christmas and a very happy new year. Take care god bless

[@philippriegler9623]

Merry Christmas! Thank you for all the great videos!

[@henryslater8029]

I use beet juice and have been fortunate to have not had any problems over a period of 15 years. Rims still look like new. You should be able to save most fluids is a leak does occurs by parking with the leak area on top of the parked tire. Good luck and happy holidays to you and your family.

[@LeighCowley]

I took the fluid out of my 7120 and put duels on it. You won’t need fluid. The best thing is that it will walk through wet ground better. In fact I never got it stuck. My son though was more daring and did. Put weights on the front as well.

[@brianwestveer9532]

Have a merry Christmas

[@larryfisher6644]

Merry Christmas my friend and be safe

[@wisconsindairyfarmer737]

Absolutely love the 7810 and the 7510. My favorite series of tractors, I've got a 7810 also and it's my favorite tractor ever. Merry Christmas

[@danielhurrle7008]

Thanks for sharing Aaron. Can't wait to see the new additions to the 7120. If you have the tools for the liquid id use that but wheel weights are nice in the fact that you don't have to worry about a leak in the tire. I have fluid in my rear tractor tires on my 85hp Kubota.

[@350mack]

Michelin super singles on the back will pull way better and alot more traction 😊

[@charlietanner6211]

i use dsl service i also do away with calcium iron only now good luck with you,re new tractor merry christmas to you all

Methanol antifreeze is what we use, at a ratio of 6:1 water/methanol. That’s in central Virginia, though, so you might need a stronger rate. It’s non corrosive.

[@bigchew3149]

We have Always Ran Fluid in our Tires & Then we had a Flat an lost the fluid so we did not put any back in Untill We Tried to Use it Again & It Would Not Pull Nothing With out Spinning The Tire ! So For Us in These Hills & Hollers Of Eastern KY It Is A Must Have !O & MERRY CHRISTMAS !

[@Timkrenz-gr6ol]

❤😊HAVE FUN PUTTING ALL THE STUFF ON THE TRACTOR ❤😊

[@theburnhams2925]

Antifreeze/windshield-washing fluid is cheapest, although not as heavy as beet juice. Stay away from chloride! Always enjoy your videos.

[@Thedohdoh]

Merry Christmas everyone. 🎉

Road trip must have gone to another state . After watching the hills you guys farm on it looked almighty flat where you were driving . Glad to see fans all over . Great video , Happy Holidays 👍

[@jonathanfrecking1210]

I used washer fluid in one tractor i had. It worked pretty well.

[@Travis_Rivers]

Nice job young man

[@nashcobb3056]

thank you

[@AdamsRyan530]

I use windshield washer fluid. Not as heavy as calcium or beet juice but not as corrosive. You can buy by 55gal drum at Napa.

[@briangrammer898]

❤❤VIDEO ❤❤ thanks for sharing ❤❤

[@ericlemay686]

I don’t think you need to mess with fluid in the rear tires for the chisel plow, just the new tires dual up and a full front weight set you will have a totally different tractor !

[@farmerdans8403]

I use windshield washer fluid. Not as heavy as other products but fairly cheap.

[@colmanlong1032]

Now know what your cattle trailer is,Goose Neck.love that Magnum.love the way ye farm.

Merry Christmas to you and your family from va

[@mrclaus859]

Thanks for posting

[@craigadair128]

Can you tell any difference between the Magnum and 7810 in regard to power and pulling ability?

[@bradjenkins932]

Yes

[@LukeLong-oi4uc]

We got away from using calcium in tires for weight. It ate up to many wheels. I prefer cast wheel weights. I had two inside weights, along with cast centers on a deer i used to have. I think mine were about 800 pounds each, not counting the centers, and I ran 1000-1200 of suit case weights. I ran Titan radials and thought it pulled good. I prefer it to be able to slip vs tearing up internal parts. I will never go back to liquid anything for weight. That’s just my preference and experience.

[@brianlee5029]

Iron , in my opinion, better performance than fluid. I got rid of all fluid and went to all Iron and like it way better

[@oldiron4135]

Are we witnessing a farm startup?

[@mathewkoetting9323]

You can put the heavier 500lb weights on the outside and add the 150lb weights to the inside of the wheels. The 500lb are harder to find but around. The 150lb do not pay that much for them. Do some measurements but I believe the weights that fit your 686 would fit the 7120?? Merry Christmas to you and your family.

[@robsperling8279]

You should include resale value of the rear weights

[@RogerBrown-wr1gf]

I would avoid fluid if possible and go with cast weight. Try to achieve a 35/65 weight split front rear to minimize power hop

[@guydaubenspeck9206]

I have all three beet juice calcium chloride and also windshield washer fluid I have had my best results with windshield washer fluid we are in Western Pennsylvania don't let me get quite as cold as you guys do

[@dennis82468]

Nice upgrades. What about your head liner in the tractor? It looks like it’s ready to come down 😊

[@user-JamesLacy]

Like they say stay away from the calcium chloride. Had that in my little B and let it set for to many years without checking on it. It leaked and now I need new rims. Had to fix a rim on the back of Donna and her mom's 3000 Ford. It ate it up around the valve stem. They had tire place put alcohol in it. I've been on All State Ag Parts web site.

[@steveshearer4938]

I've heard some guys load their tires with windshield washers fluid

[@kevinsantema6807]

I don’t know what you need for your hills, but I don’t think they ran fluid in the tires on magnums, pulls excellent with out fluid, Thanks

[@davebarnes9099]

Merry Christmas

[@darrendaucsavage7632]

Windshield washer fluid

[@case1020]

Does anyone reading these comments know where i can find bolt on rear inner wheel weights for a 7720 magnum?

[@dalebennett9867]

I used window washer fluid by the drum you can mix two to one water doesn’t freeze not bad for environment if you have a woops lol just a thought merry Christmas from pa

[@guydaubenspeck9206]

Where are you at in pa? I am the western part of the state right next to the Butler farm show grounds

[@dennisbelles9236]

Aaron, have you thought of or even considered putting a salt water mix into the tires for weight? Might be a bit cheaper until you can better afford wheel weights or even another liquid weight?

[@MorganOtt-ne1qj]

Calcium Chloride is basically the same. Both corrode rims. Methanol isn't as heavy, but isn't corrosive. It's basically anti freeze, and you mix it with water according to your area temperature lows.

[@Ellison89Brett]

Then ruin the rims when it leaks.

[@tomhall7250]

Put cotton balls soaked with peppermint in the cab keeps mice 🐁 away

[@Rock0531]

How many bushels do those corn cribs hold? Non farmer

[@johndellinger4877]

If you use fluid use windshield washer fluid

[@diggersdiecast8879]

That spillage bothered me the whole video haha merry Christmas sir

[@craigschrage1567]

Fluid I would stay away from it, you get a valve stem leak and your rims are shot. You can’t clean them good enough to not rust. 15:10

[@tractordan933]

Should have put the additive in first, ya, now I tell yah.

[@kevinchesnut8832]

I run liquid and steel together

[@clintonirwin6825]

Wats the horsepower

[@imjamesolson3976]

I’m confused. Why is Aaron buy ing his own equipment? Also what is your off farm employment?

[@AirplaneDoctor_]

Because that's what you do when you grow your own crops?

[@kellyscut1761]

He works for a company that applies herbicide and fertilizer.

[@timpingel9607]

Hard to justify with limited acres. There is something to be said about owning your own equipment. Dad definitely has an equipment lineup to handle the extra acres.

[@timspangler4694]

Easy to justify especially when I’m sure he’s going to need a tax write off. I always wanted to limit how often I borrowed from dad even though he never cared. Great purchase Aaron.

[@anthonyhengst2908]

I think he's an agronomist.

[@brianhall9254]

As a part time farmer it's mucher easier to maintain a good lie of equipment. But as a full time dairy man same amount cows as you have. it's always struggle to make a good living !!!!!

[@billjoat]

That's still a big question I have Aaron. Why are you buying stuff for yourself and not for "Geirok Farms"? BTW "your" tractor is a gorgeous BEAST!!

[@theburnhams2925]

You really wanna know what I think? I think ya can't hide money! But realize your purchases are both forward-looking and necessary. we'll be WATCHIN' you.......(don't want to see nearly as much slippage next year....and probably won't)
