Larson Farms has got to be the cleanest operation and set-up out of any farm I've ever seen hands down.

[@SuperMatt2112]

It is very impressive indeed, it's constant work to keep it that way, all the stuff we don't always see in the video, we just get snippets but there is so much more that goes into all this, probably more than many can even comprehend. much respect for Larson Farms in so many ways. I am often gobsmacked really.

[@samwaldner1128]

If you're thinking the job is done think again. Track alignment is a 4 to 5 hour job, driving 2 miles and checking the blocks with a lazer thermometer gun. If its hotter on one side than the other you adjust a bit and drive 2 miles again.

[@icebabysnocain]

Speaking of jacks letting go and leaking down it would be nice to see big blocks under there just in case. I doubt if there are jack stands big enough for it. I always used four screw type barn jacks on blocks for safety but I doubt you will find barn jacks anywhere these days. JohnDeere knew all that and didn't tell you because they wanted to sell you the tracks. Bigger swede needs the grass mowed. Good video Winny. Peace.

[@TheFarmersLife]

We've got an S780 coming our way on tracks that we just traded for. Will be the first thing on our farm with tracks. Looking forward to the drive home from dealer maybe in a couple weeks.

[@beluxauto5968]

I was the lucky person to install Soucy tracks on a Claas combine 2 years ago . I think this was a once in a lifetime experience for me . Never again on a combine . Ever . This outfit´s owner had them on a few tractors and they are relatively easy to change but a combine , you´ve stated the obvious ( from my personal experience ) buy factory installed . Tractors that need to have the option to swap around is a different story .

[@lynnmoore2664]

[@cntslesfabrication]

The farm I work at we buy 9 new class 9 combines every 2 years and 20 new 9R and 9RT every year because we can't afford breakdowns farming 48,000 acres. It works out great for us and will continue doing it this way until it doesn't work.

[@OOpSjm]

Wouldn't a lease work best in that scenario?

[@garyfuiten5126]

48,000....Holy Crap.

[@cntslesfabrication]

@@OOpSjm you would think so but the lease payments are more expensive per month per machine then just making the note payments are. There charging you more for the wear and tear like a rental. It's a difference of 1500 to 2500 per machine per month depending on each contract

[@cntslesfabrication]

Awesome videos chet thanks for sharing with us how beautiful the farming life is keep it up bro 🙏🙏💪💪

[@joaovitorfernandesdemelo4285]

it is very beautiful this machine

[@nateroth1302]

What is with the tech not removing the paint between the housing surfaces, it is a key to remove as the torque will decrease as the paint breaks down.

[@fowletm1992]

They never do in ag We used to do chassis up rebuilds of cat dump trucks and dozers I would have been shot for not grinding the paint off Asked the local dealer about that and they looked at me lime I was mad No grinding paint when we toured a few new Holland factorys in Europe either Or the John Deere factorys in America I guess the loads just arnt there and they hours they do arnt there We were doing chassis up rebuilds on dump trucks with 100'000hrs (been rebuilt a few times) That combine will be melted down into a new combine well under 10k hrs We usually move combines on under 3k hrs The repair bills and reliability becomes too much after that

[@nateroth1302]

@@fowletm1992 Thank for the feedback as I was waiting to see what the tech was going to do as the track housing is paint free but the combine was not as they are submerged painted. It is all relative as the housing are designed to handle the loads of that machine, as a JD Master Tech, all instructions will state to remove all paint for a clean metal to metal contact. This is the biggest issue I have with most techs now days, they don't take the time to do the common sense jobs. Larson Farm just spent big money on this equipment and the tech is not helping the machine live up to its potential. It all comes down to the details to make any machine last as long as possible, it doesn't matter what size of machine.

[@francoispelletier9441]

fowletm1992 as a AG JD tech, we were told to always remove the paint. Curious to see why he didn’t.

[@jamesbyrne5734]

Looks like ur on tracks for the harvest🤗. That combine is crying out for a bit of muck and dust 😁. Good luck with the harvesting

[@scotttanner3107]

"I'm gonna have to buy that thing then" the look on Dougo's face was priceless

Must be time to trade to the 9x1100 as the s790 looks used. I hope case ih will bring out the 9250 for you all to try at the same time. Also if ever get tired of that shed, package it up and send to me via email.

[@asquithmainlines699]

If it is a metric bolt use a metric socket or wrench. They don’t always directly match up and it is a good way to round corners. Don’t ask me how I know this.

[@asquithmainlines699]

@@In_Need_of_a_Savior Yes you are 100% right. That is why I have two complete sets of both metric and english sockets and wrenches.

Isnt it dry enough out where you don't need the tracks this year? Heard tracks are tough on hydrostatic and final drives

[@wendellhagg3511]

Very Interesting. Great Information Video !! H.

[@kevinklingner3098]

I have sometimes wondered about what happens when its decided that tracks are needed and the tyres become redundant and surplus to needs . Definately better to buy as is of the shelf.

[@thomasperez4412]

Great job, tough lessen about the tracks before and after . You three really work well together. I used to think your dad only had one gear and that gear was "grouch". Not so, he is quite the interesting "young daddy" type. As for Eric the Swede , well Hail Eric he such a stud. Last but not lease Chet your the man all the way round. Tom in Minnepolis. 9/23/20

[@kruppratte218]

Interesting video, Tracks are pretty nice, I'm planning to build a half track cargo truck with Combine tracks & backhoe tires, I won't be having the issue of removing final drives or any that mess, but I'm interested in what it'll take to get one installed, not sure how much horsepower that combine's engine has, but I was thinking of using a gas engine instead of diesel, I'm sure the overall half track won't weigh near as much as that huge combine, but I'd like a go anywhere & get some crap done type of work vehicle, need to haul tombstones sometimes & sometimes end up with roads flooded or with icy roads. I was thinking of using a Ford 460 V8 with truck transmission though, keep up the good work & thanks to the Farmers of America for the work they do.

Hey have you ever thought about buying a John Deere x9

[@w.f.3588]

Shouldn't your Dealer have advised you on the financial waste associated with the final drives sitting in the shed (i.e., 12k per). Sounds like it was quarter-end and they needed a sale to get the Hawaii award. What kind of value add is your Dealer providing?

[@michaelkirby4806]

It’s a leased machine so the farmer isn’t out anything. I would think John Deere would come pick up the removed parts.

[@w.f.3588]

@@michaelkirby4806 - He is leasing the machine, and the parts that are being stored - right? And the tracks. Sorry Michael, but the Dealer saw Christmas coming early.

Has Larson Farms looked into purchasing a torque multiplier they multiply your torque by 4 to 1 or even higher but if you do use one use special caution if you apply 10 pounds (input) the multiplier applies 40 pounds (output) therefore eliminating the extension bar on a wrench read about online...

[@dougberry1011]

JD needs to put threaded holes so you use pusher bolts to help push the final drive extension housing off those big dowel pins. What a pain in the ass that was.

Your absolutely 💯 right thay need to do that I work for john deere and we say the same thing

[@jameslcoble248]

Looks nice with the tracks and I would agree order with the tracks. Just curious could it have been possible to have found a slightly used combine that would have been cheaper than leasing that one and the tracks separately plus having over $24,000 sitting and collecting dust which from some experience sitting isn't good.
