WILL IT START ? - OLF's JOHN DEERE 4430

After being stood for 9 years we attempt to bring this old 1977 John Deere 4430 back to life.

[@cecilhoak7909]

A couple clueless John Deere junk people

Mucker you had the 4430 purring like a kitten. Two legends together you and Wes .Great video Mucker 🚜🔧👍

Thanks 👍

“That engine is just so loyal” I love that!

[@jvin248]

I can see in the comments that more love New Paint and Payments, and don't get it. The corn doesn't grow any faster with a bank loan tractor or vintage machinery, but the vintage gear can keep your farm profitable. You can buy a pair of used tractors for just the down payment on one of the fancy pants tractors. If you have payments on a tractor, tillage accessories, planters, sprayers, and combines you need to cover so many acres that you are no more than a Peasant for the Banker Lord's treasury. Do some spreadsheets on six weeks of corn planting and how you can cover huge acreage with four, six, eight, or twelve row planters and smaller more fuel efficient tractors; throw in rain delays, it's kind of surprising how much coverage can be had. And then look at leaning up the processes where you no-till vs plowing and the equipment needs lessen and so on. Be clever because bigger payments mean less profit.

Love the Greater Turdberg insert!! 😂😂

[@kenmurray4232]

It was fitting wasn't it

[@kevinmothers904]

I would go for the 4430. John Deere also made the 3 cylinder 1130 in 1977 with 2 x 12 volt in parallel. They are a bit of a bugger to get at though as they are housed in front of the instrument panel. Air con on mine, no problem , I just take the doors off the Duncan Supercab!

[@frankscruggs4749]

Good video. I hope that you enjoyed your time in the USA.

[@LordMuck]

Yes, thank you

[@Cayman306]

4960 I remember when it burned and then watching him rebuild it. He is basically the reason I’m farming now.

[@kenmurray4232]

I like the 4430, but then I like the older equipment anyway. Tried & tested, that is why it is still around. Love the answer to the waste of human space. Perfect

[@scottallpress3818]

First proper tractor I went for a ride in as a kid was a 4450 , there’s no way you would keep me out of that 4430 !

[@rhubarb021]

That started better than most 6 cylinder 30 series in the cold even when they haven’t been sat for 9 years!!😀

[@carlosnewton3360]

Purchased a 3040 back in 2018 as a non runner as my first project as an 18year old. Found out it was a back loom, made my first loom and had the old girl running a dream within a day. Had been stood for 5 years and mobes it on for 3k more than i brought her for, lobe the older JD tractors. Keep up the good work

[@jefftheaussie2225]

I would be quite happy to drive the 4430 all day every day. If John Deere re-released them tomorrow you would have to line up to buy one. I know of a 4830 still driving a big square baler as a contractors machine. It doesn’t get much TLC either. Jeff

[@paulg9483]

Excellent video as always your Lordship, take care mucker👌👌👌

[@MrE30]

Brilliant seeing you both working on the 4430

[@stevejasper5471]

7530 all day long 😍

[@nwhllnd1stsfarms79]

Best of the best when you have the legendary Lord Muck and OLF together you guys should do more videos together

[@thegregdavieschannel]

Those John Deere engines always sound so smooth.

[@mikebrunner1577]

That thing sounds so GOOD.

[@drewkuntz2174]

4960, I spent a lot of time in the large frames, and love them.

[@seanworkman431]

same, good compromize for size, weight and power.

[@casto-]

I bet it’s a fun time kicking round Wes’s place! For the person who owns the tractor a simple start is nice but as you say, that was the easy part. I’m with you guys, if there a/c and a radio I’d be happy driving anything

[@SomeGuysSawShop]

What a cool old Deere, those old 40 series are awesome tractors

[@i_druth]

Fair play after sitting there for 9 year and without much done to even give it an ol kick up the arse like, she sounds a beaut

[@lordcaptainvonthrust3rd]

Nice one LM I'd pick the 4430 just because it's had to wait so long to do what it was born to do again 👍

[@chrisbowman4487]

49 60 great old tractor they are what tractors should sound like

[@jamesmorrison1884]

Thats a good tractor Wes has. Have a good day.

[@drewkuntz2174]

I’ve got a 1976 model 4430 that’s turned up and runs real strong. But if you walk by it with an ice cream cone it wants block heat and half a can of Cosby sauce.

[@corriedalefarm]

More of a blue fan but had to choose would be the 4430 only because I like the old stuff and the simply way it was built with the reliability of the machine.

[@MaxxumPwr]

Have to choose the 7530 to drive every day, for the comfort and performance

[@johndeere1951a]

Mucker! Welcome to New Jersey 🗽✌️👍 I used to watch OLG until Wes got a little political. Nice that your friends and do exchange trips across the pond. I'm up the road north in New Hampshire. Much quieter than Jersey. 🇬🇧🇺🇲👍💚

[@trevorpearson1832]

Thanks for the video. 4430 for me. 👍

[@ford2010]

There is nothing more majestic than firing up a John deere diesel and just cranking on yhe throttle....it's almost like a trex yelling out loud!!!!

[@byronshadrick3050]

It’s going to have to be Wes’s 4960 if I had the chance to drive anything of his. Just a sheer powerhouse with a soundtrack that won’t ever be forgotten. Excellent video from both of you. 👌🏼👍🏼

[@paulatkinson2849]

Got to be the 4430 no doubt that straight six sounds fantastic 😋

[@dustymiller7758]

It would have to be the 4430 great machine, and what an outcome to start like that after all those years outside. Well done.

[@ThePloughMan117]

Brilliant video as always! Tough choice love and miss our 8530 but would love to have a bash on the 4960 👌🏻

[@maxpuppy96]

4430 is better than a new one

[@kerryminigringo]

I do love a cool start up and a bit of Greta content. 🤦‍♂️😜😜

[@philglover2973]

Awesome video thanks mucker 🚜🔧🛠️🚜🔧🛠️🚜

[@johncallaghan3367]

The 4430 all day no radio just that stove purring

[@dennisadam420]

Great video! I enjoyed watching the 4430 start for the first time in Nine Years of sitting outside. 👍

[@Jabberwocky4k]

I'd go with the 4460. I mostly learned on a 2355, I loved that thing, a loyal machine.

[@theGovnr1]

Loved this! I hope you and Wes get together more often even tho you live across the pond.

[@davidtanner4020]

4430, they have a soft spot in my heart. Grew up on one

[@straightpipeacres6365]

Caee 3394 i think id go with. Wait that wasnt a option. I guess il go with the 4960 lol. Decent video bud. The old jd took right off!!

[@petrokemikal]

Id take the 4430 for a season for sure.. Great visibility, reliable horsepower, far better lock being 2wd.. Easy on the fuel, and way more fun to drive..

[@patkelly7999]

The 4960, mighty stuff Kurt , Kimberly, Puppo and Wes, Thank You, Fantastico👌👍🙏🙂

[@williamnewsome7811]

Watch every episode, and keep the content coming. Enjoy the accent , always makes me smile.👍

[@TheCarhartt1]

The older Deere just sound so good!!

[@johnlockhart6324]

I drove a 4440 back in the 90 getting patio ground reddy the 4430 should be lovely

[@TheGenuineFer]

Beautiful tractor. My grandfather had a 62’ 730 diesel that I first learned to drive a tractor on. To me the older tractors look so much better than the newer ones.

[@danw6014]

60 not 62.

[@nigelburton5376]

Loved the reference to the arse about face way the guy from Florida does things.

[@peterthomas120]

She's a ball of fire and a trail of smoke 😂

[@user-pd7qe8he5g]

Love it! Absolutely awesome, you 2 are a pair! 4960

[@neilcotten2816]

4430 for me, my favourite era of tractors

[@samuelthorogood3878]

Can't deny JD have made some nice tractors over the years. Don't have to be a fan of them to see that!

[@matthewpeake8981]

drove a 4430 back in 1985-86 seasons in havresting loved it

[@michaelsomers6535]

Another great video. keep up the great content. I'm not a fan of John deere but I'll probably use the 7530.

[@Midwest-small-engine]

4430 all the way had the toy one when I was a kid can only imagine what a great machine it’ll be once back to its working clothes glory

[@letzrockitrite8469]

Wonderful !

[@philgardener7018]

What a great tractor. reminds me of our 4040 when I was young

[@davida.p.9911]

The 4960. 😎 (With the 4430 coming in a close second.) "I don't smoke, but my tractor does!" 😁👍👌

[@ronniecumming7685]

4430, what a sweet sounding tractor.

[@user-lk4bc5qq5y]

I will say, The 7530, but would love to drive all three!! Thanks Great Video!!

[@user-hc1vy3ds4f]

Simply wonderful 👌

[@farmpro_farmer8737]

4430 and 4960 👌 Grow up in 4255, 4455 and 4955 on the farm, my first traktor i drove ware a mf35 from 1961 💪

[@steamfan7147]

4430 I got one of those, reliable as the sunset.

[@BCII]

I’d have to go with the 4430. Cheers from Alabama USA 🍻!

[@VioletDragonsProjects]

a lot of the older stuff is better than the new stuff that is made. at least you can repair the 4430 without having all the computer diagnostics.

[@harrisharvester]

Excellent collaboration with you both 🇺🇸🇬🇧, love those sound gaurd tractors, I would be quite happy in that 4430 as long as the air con worked 😂 👍

[@anthonyhengst2908]

I like the 4430..... I have a soft spot for tractors closer to my age.

[@paulcooper9135]

With the AC working, I'd run that 4430 over all the others. Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦

[@peterfarbrace3604]

4960, lovely machine. Great vid Mucka 👍 Loved the transition as she fired on 2 or 3 and then moved up to all 6. Sounded lovely at the end.

[@tonygiraldes7848]

Just the greatest as always! No doubt in my mind you would have this running 👍

[@LordMuck]

Thanks again Tony 👍

[@calumanderson5617]

4430 for me Kurt, thank you for the video.🙂🐶🐶👍

[@user-lq9ml7sr5y]

4430 because I used to drive one a farm. Keep the videos coming it really cheers me up

[@clarkeseymour4684]

Being someone who grew up on a JD tractor I would love driving any of them. But I am most familiar with the 4430 drive train as we had a 4240 Quad Range. Also had a 3020 power shift so again any of them would be awesome to drive for a season.

[@andrewdougal2262]

The 4430 without a doubt great sound from them

[@danne77sthlm]

Aaaah, sweeet sweet tractor just started, and I would without any doubt want to drive that 4430 a season, it reminds me the most of our old 9700 2wd we had with a swapped TW-35 engine in it :)

[@TonyDay1]

Definitely 4430 no fancy stuff

[@bulldogtree4449]

sounds great

[@richardparton1655]

4960 for sure good old beast, Great content cheers.👍👍👍

[@Steeps1969]

4430 - most character!

[@lukehomer35x]

4430 for me. Old is gold 👌

[@rw3dog]

I wanna drive the 720 Propane ! Awesome video !

[@whitestream5233]

Nice tractor Mucker and you got it running sweet without a lot of work , just using common sense and knowledge. I like the 4430 They are a good machine .

[@richardphelan8414]

Well Muckers there you have it the 4430 is a runner and almost ready to work ,She's ALIVE ,the more you know . 4430 all the way mucker

[@chadd2305]

8530. What a sweet ride

[@LordMuck]

Wasn't an option - you'd have to fight Theresa !

[@tripod6406]

4960, love those tractors, got to admit I prefer John Derre tractors anyway..

[@fasteddy2780]

Definitely the 4430. My dad drove an 4040 back in the days.

[@bartpowers9972]

Most excellent start up👍

[@mikeoreilly6795]

I never had a doubt that old girl wasn't gonna start.

[@CH1N00K88]

It'd have to be the 4960 for me. 75's are a good tractor. I've driven many different ones so it would be nice to try something different. Yet another spot on video!!

[@AdzyRJT]

4960 for me. Not a JD man myself, but they always looked the business.

[@ginggur17]

4960 all day long. Awesome. 👍👍🇬🇧🇺🇸

[@johnf2020]

4430 purely because it was the 1st incarnation of the Sound Gard Cab . I had a 4230 about 15 years ago as a hobby tractor but unfortunately I had to sell it .

[@jimclements3190]

Following up your cat video, another machine that's built to last, she sounded and looked lovely on my 4k TV and matching soundbar 🤩👌

[@jimmy9fingers1]

4430, simple reliable, old school, bet it'll still outlive plenty of todays tractors with their complicated electronics

[@pn3846]

I think your doing a smart thing getting up and running it can still handle the job

[@andrewphillips9798]

I love the old John Pops, its all I currently have, but if I had the option of any of those for a whole season, it would have to be the 7530.
