WILL IT START ? - Fordson Super Major

[@GavinY]

Most solid, concise, straight to the point prelude every in history of KZbin

[@whitesapphire5865]

I think that precision brake tool was developed at the Bathgate works, but I'm not 100% sure. It is, however, a complimentary accessory to go with the Glasgow socket set. I understand if it's difficult to tell them apart, especially after dark. Anyway, why did Leyland have to make that brake mechanism so complicated? They could have had words with DB about how they implemented their braking system, and would have complimented Sekura S80 cab that they borrowed. We didn't get many Leyland tractors out here, but of the few we saw, I can't think of anyone who complained about them. Our local stock of tractors were all Ford, Fergie, or Nasher, and a scattering of DB. The Major sounds well! And started up like a real trouper, just as a Major should. I still remember our old Major firing up when nothing else would, and the depths of a 1970's winter, and using it to drag all the other machines over to the exhaust fans of the grain dryer, so we could light it up and thaw them out. That put a bit of a brake on our sugar beet harvesting for that day, but I digress. Let's hope a lot of dogs will benefit from your labours.

Thanks for the updates! I'm not really surprised someone would neglect their tractor brakes. Some figure they can throttle down, select a lower gear and find a very flat spot to stop on. It sounds completely dumb, but some do think that way. I guess they think "I'm not going that fast so I don't need them" but the fact is, you do. So I agree with you 100%. 🚜

[@christopherdavies752]

Nice one Mucker . Great Vid as usual and appreciate the work that goes into restoring classics! The importance of the innovation that went into these machines was as vital then as the Vario shift gearbox was in recent history for example.

[@peteberry6425]

that was good that was, and really good that the mudguards fit straight on like that, thats a definite bonus, look forward to the next one

[@mikeduin8311]

A quick and crisp start up on the super major! And nice to see the proper special tools are being used for the Leyland brakes.... Good luck with all the upcoming jobs! Cheers!

[@kerryminigringo]

Try Charnleys for your Leyland tractor bits. Great to deal with and know their stuff. Great rundown of the projects,now off with you and hurry down the road after that ice cream van. 😀

[@harrysemmence5046]

What a Tuesday treat 🙂 nothing like keeping busy, the old super is looking tidy sounds lovely they are a great tractor

[@SAB_Agri]

Nice one. I could be doing with few sets them mudguards 🤔 🤙🤙👍👍

[@richardneale246]

I'm glad you said the police car siren and the ice cream joke, as I say it all the time. With minimal response.

[@pyroplim6967]

Brakes on a Leyland!!!! Well poke me with a knotter needle LOL. Those mudguards look hefty enough Mucker its nice to see something that fits decent .Great vid its nice to see the major alive .

[@growingknowledge]

Great update, nice to see all the progress. Well done mate.

[@michaelguerin56]

The working overalls, NOT a pretty ‘going out’ pair! 😁 Good to hear that noise. Waiting for the test drive. Nice to see you trying out aftermarket replacement body parts, almost like watching a Mr Landcruiser episode on replacement 40 series body/chassis parts.

[@AndrewHCann]

Excellent video Lord Muck :) yes nice Small Ford tractor run again also big Ford to and old yellow too ! Pretty soon you have all tractors fix and be working new ones for to fixing up on too!

[@patkelly7999]

Great stuff Kurt and Puppo, good to see ye back on the telly:):)

It's great now there's a lot of repair panel's for the Ford q cabs as the rot would put people off. I know there can be a bit of work on some but a least it makes things easier...👍

Fantastic update video your lordship the major sounds awesome take care of yourself and we hope to see you soon 👍

[@petepeeff5807]

I hope you plan to let us know more about the mud guards aka "fenders" here in the Colonies. No one here rebuilds those quiet cabs so we don't have aftermarket body parts like you obviously do.

[@russellpetrie119]

bless her your doing awsesome work look forward to the next vlog

[@rustyshank912]

I am not surprised about the brakes my dad used my old Deutz d10006 to spread manure from a heifer barn about a mile down the road. First the main brakes master stopped working so he started using the hand brake then it stopped working but instead of fixing it he started using the reverse synchronizer to slow the tractor down. My brother fixed the brakes a bit later not bad for a child. Somehow that machine took all that abuse and she still shifts nice.

[@kevinwillis9126]

Thanks Kurt great vid sir... Take care....

[@LordMuck]

Cheers Kev 👍

[@elwynphillips3327]

Another good video,keep them coming, when you can that is.

Those mudguards are lovely nice bit of Tig welding it looks like 👍 The major sounds sweet and new bits will make it nicer ! Those brakes can’t understand why people don’t sort stuff out :( if you want a hand give me a shout I can venture north of the border for a days Rust removal and WD40 session if you’d like :) Keep up the good content it’s nice to see !

[@johnwood346]

Cracking on mucka keep up the good stuff

[@JonDingle]

Well melod, An interesting update. Brakes are a useful thing especially if you farm up on hilly land. Maybe Fred Flintstone owned it previously and used an implement on the back as a brake? Just lower it down and jamb it into the earth's crust until the tractor stops? Crude, effective and eliminates the need to use the foot pedal. When fitted with a front end loader, that could be used as an emergency stop!

[@simonmusicka5552]

Love your videos I’m currently dealing with depression all ways being down in the dumps your videos put a smile on me thanks

Forgot about the Leyland! I love the precision sledgehammer, must be a gold plated. Brakes! Naaa isn't that a brick tied to a piece of string?! Those mudguards look top notch, certainly some good work gone into them will be a proper job when they finally manufacture a batch. Are they looking to do other model lines as well?

[@weegrant1980]

you looked suprised at how quick that tractor started, is that fair? are most tractors like the leyland, hydraulics working mechanical linkages? keep up the good work, hopefully utube will be nice + tell me more often

I was. I thought she'd take a bit more encouragement initially.

Lord Muck, with that haircut you look like one of the cast of Peaky Blinders, just a cap to finish the look. You certainly keep busy:)

Evening your lordship are you going to give the Leyland a black and white Collie paint job ???

[@rossmarkle1713]

Odd I don't remember my dad owning that 🤔 the Ford 3000 didn't have brakes either but there were always trees that available, the grill was proud of it's involvement. There wasn't a lot of speed involved steering box was , well like wet spaghetti system ! So if you don't have trees near by okay fix the brakes 🤣🤷‍♂️

Wander if leyland could have been sat running something like a wood prossesor or pump in the same spot

[@LordMuck]

And ? Who lets something get to that point ?

[@arwelagrimachinery]

@@LordMuck just a thought why they didn't miss not having brakes like

[@claetuswoodroofe1854]

If you think the brakes are worn you will know if they grab when you use them because the balls run too far up the track. They will do this long before they will shed their linings. Year’s ago we just added a extra steel inter plate even a used one will do . This goes against logic but it works fine and is only takes a few minutes to slip it in.

[@andersjeppsson2456]

[@g00167015]

Maybe you mistakenly used a metric sledge hammer on those brakes instead of an imperial, they'd have defo worked otherwise ha

Yabba yabba doo Farmer Fred Flintstone was last farmer driving Leyland tractor n he definitely gay old time with handbrakey LOL lucky he wasn’t towing because I bet he didn’t have trailer brakes either. I bet old Fordson will move, when changing gears at least there was some care despite been old.

The prior owner got rid of the tractor because the brakes did not work and that is how you ended up with it. Shouldn’t you be thankful for that instead of cursing about it?

Why should I be thankful that there are so many tight, lazy twats around ? They are a fucking danger.
