That right there is why the D was the favorite plow tractor of of thousands of farmers from 1923-1953 and beyond. Given good soil conditions it would pull a four bottom plow all day and under the worst conditions it would still pull a 3 bottom.

Those two big 5 pound coffee can sized pistons are playing sweet music! I miss my days on a 820 and 830 pulling a 13’ John Deere disk.

Nice running tractor, I had one in my younger days, the D is an awesome tractor. Too bad this owner didn’t put on an original exhaust instead of that straight pipe, it makes that D sound weird, not the way a D should sound.

Grand dad har an R, and a D and a 620 and two 730 diesels and a 820 diesel and a 830 diesel . Oh yeah he was big time share cropping in the late 60’s and on into the mid 70’s and every one of those tractors were antiques then.

That D seems to handle that plow effortlessly. I like to hit my plow bottoms with a wire cup brush first to help them shine up initially.

After plowing we greased our plows, unless there was a sandy bottom nearby to scour them up.

The strange thing is that is Sandy ground, I'm not sure why the plow wouldn't scour

That’s bad ass, gotta be more than 502 cubes.

It's interesting how much you would have to spend to get a new tractor to pull this same plow.

Old D damn near yanked that plow in the ground from a dead stop.

That’s why even though the big R diesel was supposed to be it’s replacement, demand and back orders were so high they finally built the last hundred or so of them in 1953 in an alley between the factory buildings after their production line was dismantled. (That’s where the term streetcar D’S comes from)
