Such a relief now that I spent that money and got them installed!! Can't wait to drill this week!!

Good evening Nelson.

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

Good morning Mr Gary!! 😁☕

[@VintageFarm1086]

It's a shame that parts probably cost more than the drill is really worth. But it will definitely work much better. Looking forward to seeing more and the drill in the field.

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

It is Mr Monty, stuff has gotten out of hand!! I think the way the sell around here, I could triple my money with all the new parts now!! It sure will be a lot better than when I used it for oats!! Hopefully this Wednesday Mr Monty, the winter wheat will be in that ground!! Thank you sir for always being here, I really appreciate that!! I hope things are well your way!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍👍😁😁😁🌾🌾🌾🌾

[@jankotze1959]

Nice Nelson, the Allis will make a great planting tractor and grain card puller, the openers will help ensure a good crop

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

Looking fwd to it Mr Jan, I think you are right sir!! Hopefully this week we can get started!! The openers were an expense, but I agree it will sure help put a good crop in the ground!! Thank you sir for always being here I really appreciate that!! 👍👍😁😁

[@GordonBright-sq4ef]

Good Monday running behind unreal what parts and repairs costing now. Something like that either pay now or pay later. Good advice Dylan had we traded with them on several things. Take care Nelson

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

Good Monday Gordon !!! Never late here my friend!! It is very sad what stuff does cost!! I debated on it long and hard, but finally let go of the pennies 🤣🤣 Yes sir, sure was...solid advice for sure!! Thank you Gordon for always being here, I really appreciate that sir!! Hope things are going well my friend!! 😁😁👍👍🌾🌾🌾🌾🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@johnnyholland8765]

Found out early on you can't work on farm equipment for pennies cause it takes so many of them it quickly turns into dollars and lots of them. I have a Great Plains six foot no till drill. Last year I replaced all the coulter blades and all the opening discs. Nineteen openers and nine coulters. Lot of money spent that day but it is good for a good long time now. Sometimes you just have to spend the money and fix stuff. Your drill will plant much better with new discs. You get more uniform seed depth and they will cut much better if you plant into any kind of stubble.The "regulators" you spoke of are metering boxes. They meter the seed out as they turn. Pull your side panels off the drill and check your drive chains. Very bad things happen if they break and wad up inside.

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

Boy they sure do, been seeing that a lot lately!! But yes sir, very very good investment!! Long overdue, and should last a long while I hope!! Boy I bet that did hurt the pocketbook that day, but I'm sure it is almost like new now!! The stubble is exactly what I was concerned with!! It has broken down a lot in the last week or two, so that last fertilizer work in pass with the packer should be perfect!! Metering boxes,an that's the word....couldn't think of it to save my life!! I did exaclty that when I replaced those bearings, ole drill isn't much eye candy, but sure is nice behind the faded paint! Thank you sir for all the great input, advice and help!! I really appreciate that, and Also for always being here!! 👍👍😁😁🇺🇸🇺🇸🌱 Wednesday is the day 🌾🌾🌾🌾🌾🤞🤞🤞🤞

[@evanaustin2636]

Wow those old blades were shot! It's hard to tell sometimes how worn out something is until you see it beside a new one. On that link that you moved over, it was probably offset so far because the lever it hooks to moves left to right also to engage the gears when you raise and lower the openers. So it was probably a lot straighter when everything is down, rather than up. My drill is like that anyway. Hope your disc hangs in there to get you finished this year. Hope you have a good one Nelson!

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

They sure were Evan!! I agree, I had no idea just how bad u til I got the new ones 😳😳 Boy you are sharp as a tack!! After I did all that, and was going back double checking....I realized that exact thing you are sepaking of!! That spring if you well that engaged the gears🤦🤦 Sometimes I wonder about myself, but I really appreciate it!! There is usually a reason for things🤣🤣 I will.say though, it had been moved over past the happy medium on the one side, I feel.like to try and force the spring to hold the wore out gears together. I replaced all those bearings and gears, should I have caught it then 🤦🤦 I used a grease needle and packed those bearings full, I hope it will Evan, today is the day 🌾🌾🌾🌾🙏🙏🙏🤞🤞🤞 Thank you very much for all your support and always being here!! Also for the great input , that is a blessing!! 😁😁😁😁👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🌾🌾🌾🌾

Full watch and a thumbs up 👍🏻 Nelson

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

Thank you so much Mr Gary for ALL your support sir!!! 😁😁👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@BackFarms]

You got off easy. I had to do 44. We spent the same amount in new parts as we did buying the drill. But all totaled up im in it less than buying one half wore out that would need the same parts. Its a good feeling have peice of mind with new parts, cant say ill have that same opinion when i reblade a disk one day. Hope the drill does a good job since you put some gold dollars in it.

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

Wow, 44 😳😳 Yes that's exactly what my thoughts were as well, those used drills can be expensive for sure, them all the stuff is wore out!! Couisn Scott really did Mr a solid on this thing, I am still under what most go for around here, wore slap out!! Yes sir I know what you mean on the disk blades 🤦🤦 I need to do that on both of mine😳😳 Gold dollars for sure Logan, but I think it will be well worth it!! Thank you my friend for always being here, I really appreciate that!! 😁😁🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍🌾🌾🌾 Hope things are well!! 😁😁

[@brenterickson1695]

Those openers are going to make a world of difference.... Looking forward to seeing grain going in the ground....Keep at er Buddy. Thanks Nelson.

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

I have to agree Mr Brent!! Fingers crossed it should happen Wednesday, if the Lord and mother nature will stay on my side!! I think it will be very noticable in planting! I just said hello over at Mr Will's place while you were checking out the wrapper👍👍😁😁 Thank you Mr Brent for all your support and always being here, I really appreciate that!! 👍👍😁😁😁🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🌾🌾🌾

[@DylanJoyceFarms]

You're planting equipment is one place you dont need to skimp. You did the right thing getting the whole complete unit. Its hard to get those bearings ever riveted back in there tight. You're an official farmer now that you're pulling things out of the scrap to make parts for your drill. 🤣 Shoup Parts are great to work with it. Normally if I get it ordered by 2 or 3 in the afternoon it will be here the next day.

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

You guys sure know your stuff!! I was told the corn planter and drill are two most valuable tools!! Boy I couldn't imagine having to fiddle with those bearings, and after you saying that I am so glad I did go with the whole unit!! I did kinda feel that way, walking around searching high and low in the "goodie" piles for the right piece 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I think I ordered on a Sunday night, they were on my step Tuesday at lunch. Some of the best service I have ever had, will be shopping there alot in the future!! Thank you Dylan for the advice, input, and always being here, I really appreciate that!! Can't wait to see soybean harvest over your way 😉😁😁😁👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🚜🚜🌱🌱🌱

[@brycewiborg8095]

That is a serious investment. I'm still a bit disappointed you didn't call the disk, packer combination a soil punisher in the last video. Thank you Nelson.

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

It sure was Mr Bryce, but I couldn't put it off any longer 🤣🤣 I really think I should have said the "Soil Punisher" 😁😁🤣🤣🤣 Thank you Mr Bryce for always being here, I really appreciate that!! 😁😁👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@CMDSR]

Ouch It hurt my feelings to learn how much they were and I didn’t buy them. Well that should take care of the drill. And just like you said one step at a time. But Nelson if you look over your shoulder you can see you’ve come a long way from where you were.

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

That was a hard pill to swallow Carl, the piggy bank turned around and gave me a dirty look 🤣🤣🤣 But yes sir, everything evolves, had couisn Scott not did me so good on that trade I would have ALOT more in it!!

[@TheCowEmporium]

With the new discs and bearings on there you probably won’t have to do much more while you own that. Definitely expensive though. We just put a light switch in our big JD and it cost us $100. 🙄

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

That was my exact thought too, no more than I use it ..should be a lifetime expense!! That it was, hard to cough up those dollars too 🤣🤣🤣 Wow, 100 bucks for a switch 😳😳😳 It truly is sad just how expensive things have gotten!! Thank you both for always being here, I really appreciate that!! Haven't quite finished the corral repair video yet, but I will 😁😁👍👍👍

[@tractortalkwithgary1271]

We had a plate less John Deere planter that I wanted to put disc openers on. Back then it was cost prohibitive... that was like1984 when I got out of the Marine Corps. Definitely not pennies on the dollar Nelson. You may have to change your channel name 🤣🤣🤣

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

I tried so hard to show horn some different disc openers off a planter on here, so much cheaper!! 1984, wow...I was knee high to a grasshopper, the good old days!! I'm telling ya, seems the pennies are turning into half dollars everyday now 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Thank you Mr Gary for always being here, I really appreciate that sir!! 😁😁😁👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🌾🌾🌾

[@pagrainfarmer]

Looks like you're gonna have a good drill when you get finished. Those disks expensive. Similar ones are used on my White planter but they're not that expensive. Did you check with Shoup Manufacturing?

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

I think it will be dialed in Mr Charlie!! They sure are, I couldn't understand really why at first. But most of the double opener drills, and planters run straight blade openers , they are way cheaper 😳😳 Trust me I thought about it 🤣🤣 Yes sir, that's where these came from, Shoup but made by Hershel Parts. Thank you Mr Charlie for always being here, I really appreciate that!! 😁😁🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍🌾🌾

First, did you get this project completed and drill operating? Second, I need to replace the original tires. Can you provide the size you are using? Just trying to run across some used trailer tires to use.

[@Pennies_on_the_dollar]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/gGTMZHSHetplb6Msi=wFHfk03VyJaDBvrE Yes, it worked flawlessly. I still had some grass clumps (40+yrs) but planted amazing!! The tire size I will get for you, at the beach right now. But I will say they are 14 inch, and not the correct ones. It took me a min to compensate on the chart for the different tire size. But I got it dialed in pretty well. My email is in the about section of my channel, shoot me an email and we can text, call or email more if you need more help. Thank you again for the support and being here. There are several videos on the drill and repairs, when I fixed the clutches for the slipping aspect.

[@joshwelner1951]

Sometimes you have the spend dollars to make penny's just how it goes its still penny's on the dollar just backwards 😆 i hate when that happens. But you got all the good and more out of the old disks
