Steve that clutch is adjusted right. When your slashing put the pedal halfway down to stop the pto or all the way down to stop the pto and the forward travel. It's a 2-stage clutch unlike the grey Fergy single. stage which when you pushed the clutch down the pto and forward travel stopped. Those 35 are the best tractor ever built. Thanks for great videos.

Actually.. you press the clutch half way,, allowing gear or direction change.. but pto remains spinning.. clutch fully depressed stops drive to the pto and gearbox

I really don’t understand how you don’t have 100,000 subscribers, I love your content and your snarky comments but then again, I’ve been a mechanical repair guy for over 50 years!

Help me share it and grow it fellas. It would be much appreciated. Even though you have been for a long time😅😅. A lot of effort goes in behind the scenes that isn’t seen on here but certainly not complaining. I enjoy it regardless of the result

Alreet Marra, Bloody hell, that clutch gave it's last ounce of loyalty. I'm suprised it worked at all!. A tractor splitting rail is definitely to go. Great news, I've released the hostage from customs. Cheers for sending it out.👍🏻 The quality and fit are mint.👌🏻 🤞🏻The channel kinetic energy spools back up.

@stevesplacedownunder 5 ай бұрын

Hi mate. Yes it was rooted but still working ok for some reason. I will probably make a rail one day. I got a few measurements off the last one I used. I’m glad you liked it and that it fits. That’s some exquisite gear right there. Thanks as always mate

Awesome vid', Steve! It's always good when you find the definitive reason for something, even better when it's a (relatively) cheap fix!! Thanks for sharing 🙂

Hi Pete. I’m happy with how it turned out mate and it’s still going fine now. I’ve actually just had to do the head gasket on it too. That’s another video to come. My pleasure and talk soon

"As close as rooted as shit is to swearing". PMSL, not one I'd heard of before. Australians, like us Poms, do like a choice phrase or two. The first motor vehicle I ever drove (at the princely age of 13) was a Fergie 35 on a farm in Cornwall (I believe it ran on something called TVO). The 35 (successor to the grey Fergie) is a brilliant bit of kit, even today.

Thanks for watching mate. Yes I like those sayings😂. Those Fergies are great even today like you say. It’s a great little machine to use

Gday Steve, splitting the tractor is the easy bit but putting them together is as easy normally and I’m buggered if I know how it was still driving when the clutch plate fell to bits, I didn’t think the price for the new plate wasn’t to bad from Lance, great video mate, cheers

@stevesplacedownunder 5 ай бұрын

Gday Matty. Yes it was still driving and working okay. Didn’t feel great but it never has. I was surprised to see it as bad as it was. I was expecting it to be rusty but not rooted. The price was a lot better than the complete kit.

@chenderson4969 5 ай бұрын

Makes you wonder if the rivets of the driven plate were just biting on the pieces left adhered to the flywheel! Amazing it didn’t let you down in the paddock

Hey steve, would it help to paint or powder coat some of those pieces. Anyway good you only had to spend 100 on the friction disk. I have a bad front axle on one of my plow trucks. Hope I can get through the winter before replacing it. Great video mate. Jim

@stevesplacedownunder 5 ай бұрын

Hi Jim. It probably would mate yes but I try to fit everything into the small amount of time that I have. If it was my only one then I probably may have done something like that. Hope your truck lasts yes and that you can repair it cheap enough. All the best Jim

I've only replaced 1 clutch in a tractor by myself it was difficult but got it finished dont think I want to tackle it again by myself 😂😂😂😂😂😂 yall have an awesome day brother and sister see yall next adventure 😂😂

It’s not a bad job mate but lining it back up is the hardest part. Especially when I only lined the clutch up by eye

Hi Nick. If it was my only tractor I would have done the lot but it’s not and there’s money to spend on the others also. But at the same time it’s fixed properly and not just patched up.

Evening Steve, can’t wait to see what this year brings for you in terms of growing the channel/hopefully you going full time as per that video you did late last year. Keep it up regardless of whatever KZfaq is doing. Bruce

Hi Bruce. This just came through as I’m watching your ACCO video. My channel hasn’t really taken back off since I stopped for that month when I got married. It’s still going ok though and still very much enjoying it. But it’s not an easy game. Yours is flying along mate. You’re certainly growing it very nicely. Well done mate. I will send you an email.
