I do like these videos without commentary. We can understand what is going on and it is nice to listen to the countryside. (Especially for those of us stuck in a city.)

I had to laugh at the introduction...I’ve been there! You got something on your mind that you want to do with the tractor, and the tractor seems to have other plans...lol Thanks for a great video. 👍🇺🇸

I grew up in a Tire Shop in a small town. We "recapped" car and truck tires, and we had a service truck we used for repairing tractor tires. I was, "so much fun" fixing flats in the middle of a muddy field, in the rain, and dealing with the calcium they used to be filled with! Those are days I DO NOT miss!!!

I liked the peace and quiet of this video. Similar to when you are fixing a tractor by yourself.

The first 28 seconds of this video is every day in life for me.

This shows what a man can do with some hand tools, a strong back, some determination, and a good old inclined plane. Well done.

Good videos Fall Line. Keep them coming. Nice bit of enjoyment for those of us stuck in a more city-like life.

Nice and simple video. Thanks for not over explaining every single detail....

I am just beginning my Tractor journey. Bought 90 ac (30 overgrown fields and 60 overgrown woods) and have a Ford 3000 with a loader and a 6' rotary mower. So I'll be watching for my lessons.

You should have parked the tractor farther from the tools, that way you could really teach yourself a lesson.

Glad to see that ol Ford isn’t super heavy. I blew my 3 ton jack trying to lift my tractor, boy that was an OMG moment lol.

Man you sure have some patiences with your video's. You must spend hours editing. Well done. Love the different perspectives you provide. I own an LT40 hyd. and I sure feel blessed when I watch you fiddle around with that little LT10.

Being raised on a farm I always enjoy watching someone work on a tractor..I drove Farmall's for many miles in my younger days..

Beautiful country. really enjoyed video thanks great wee tractor

Good stuff, love your tractor!

I agree with Scotty. It's nice to hear nature and just the thoughts running through my head sometimes when solving problems and fixing equipment. I had this happen a couple years ago with a larger tractor. Managed to drive back to the shop real quick. Parked it with valve stem at 12-oclock position put up on jacks/ blocks immediately. I didn't lose much fluid at all. Had the mobile tire service pump out fluid, repair valve stem and maybe a new tube, pump back the fluid. About $150-175 if I remember correctly (I couldn't believe it was that cheap for a large tire). Just another idea to keep in your mental toolbox. Good luck and great video

'Nuff Said' thanks for the great video.

so many experts....woulda, coulda, shoulda....

This has to be the most interesting flat tire video there is! Nice job!

Oh my...a "See Rock City" sign on a building! I haven't seen that in years, decades probably!

We bought one tractor that came from an area that does not freeze. The first time we drove it in freezing weather, the ice cut the tubes all up. It was 30 deg F out when I removed the rim to hub bolts. I had a 3/4" drive ratchet with a 6' cheater on it. On all of the bolts, the nuts took the threads off the bolts. I was outside and down to jeans and a t-shirt and still sweating. The front loader on a 90 hp tractor would not lift the tires and rims into a truck.. We had to raise the arms, curl the tire up, block it, raise the arms and curl again until the tire was high enough to put in the bed. It was sure nice mounting the rims with new bolts.

l like front bumper on your Blu Fd tractor. Good video watch. 20 volt impact wrench might be a good tool add for you

Nice to see a Ford 3000 Diesel with low exhaust, drove 1 from new back in 66 when I was almost 5 years old. Only difference, you got a drawbar, we had a hitch!

Look like he will be back in business before no time

like that old song "you picked a fine time to leave me loose wheel" lol gotta have fun in the woods!

Nice Job. I wish my tractor tires were that easy.

Well done, nothing that money can't fix! ....13

Hopefully I get to change out both my rear tires and rims this weekend. Unfortunately the shipper lost them no sooner than immediately after the seller handed them over. My friend suggested they might have slipped down under the seat of the truck, they will turn up eventually. I think I will just take the whole mess off like you did, pull the center hubs and put them on the new rims off the tractor. The old tires are beat pretty bad and could blow any time so I bit the bullet and got new ones. I need to do some research on adding ballast into the tires. My 1967 Ford 3000 diesel is a C made in the US of A and has the same front wheel wobble feature as yours. I understand that was an extra when they first came out but everyone liked it so much they made it standard on all models.

That's a sweet little tractor you have there.

I'm rebuilding a 1963 ford commander 6000. It has not been in field for few years getting ready to take it back out. this video makes working on the tractor relaxing good funny video it hit the spot just want to thank you I hope I see you another one maybe fixing you're more if I ever see you I want to shake your hand that was a good video

Like the good camera angles and less talking. Really shows how it is done. Makes it look easier than it is...especially at my age. A good 1 hour job takes me 3 hours now. I hate fluid in tires and like weights instead. Notice your hog doesn't have a safety shield either. Those cheap plastic things are totally worthless. Basically trashed after first use. Surely PTO makers could devise a better device to shields the shaft. Some old equipment I had had a very round smooth shaft which could not hang on clothing at least not easily.

Surely do enjoy your videos

Love that Ford I have a 3600 almost identical and run a Bush Hog 60”

When you just let that water spray on the tractor and the grass, I was thinking, "Well, there goes the neighborhood." The CaCl we use around here would kill the grass and turn the tractor into a crusty rusty heap. What a relief to see it was just clear water.

You need a battery operated impact wrench...

Love that little dog!

Yay brings back childhood memories of watching local farmer do community favour & mow the eyesore ancient old cemetery near our home in the 1960s with similar equipment. The place was really overgrown and had not been maintained for over 20 yrs. He had no idea what was lurking in the undergrowth among so many graves. Suddenly there was a terrible noise and an entire granite tombstones with rought ironwork would explode in showers of dust & sparks. One point he backed into a clump of heavy overgrowth below some really old pine trees, the rotor-slasher held high and all cutters fully revving, and dropped it.... bang... in came 200ft from each side of ancient lichen covered barbwire fence all lying on the ground below decades of pine needles! What a mess ... that took a blowtorch to fix!

Great placement of your camera. I’m sure that wasn’t easy. Also, I’m a newbie tractor owner. How did you rig up your hose to fill your tube with water? Is there a way to know how much water/ weight your putting in the tube? Thanks! Great video!!

Nice Ford

Northwest Sawyer built a ballast bar inexpensively. Might want to check that out.

I know first hand like many watching how heavy tractor tires are empty and loaded. Not fun. You got a nice place there and a loyal dog. What more could a man ask for.

If you have coolant you can save it with a small pump.It will also suck the tire down making it very easy to break the clench.Un lip the outside reach in and pull out the tube.It’s not as hard as you think.We put on new tires without removing the wheel.

Happy for you that you were able to avoid a potentially dangerous situation by the crappy way you jacked up the axle,slammed the tire against the studs and tightened lugs pretty much finger tight. Some folks were born lucky.

Common sense, a few hand tools, and an apparently strong back. Got the job done !!

Been there before !

I am not sure I could manage my tractor tires in the same way, with fluid ballast they weigh about 780 lbs. Perhaps in a pinch, I could try to reinstall without fluid , but I would rather not, I need calcium or some other fluid that does not freeze, so here in Canada, tap water is not an option. Great video!

Try using "PB Blaster" pray on those lug nuts next and each time, this cleans and lubes the threads both making it easier and safer also making their removal faster than just wenching them off. "PB" help these threads last longer and later hold tighter too.

You made that look easy.

You are doing an awesome and amazing job ......

In my 50 years of farming I have never seen anyone intentionally let the chloride onto the ground. It costs money to replace and pump back. So the minute I spot a flat coming, I turn the wheel so valve is at the top and then remove the wheel. I leave the hub with the tractor. I do have great admiration for the man’s strength to get the wheel in the truck and wish him the best getting back on the tractor. Obviously if that is why he drained the chloride,I rest my case.

Good Job, I like the new helper!

That is a nice you done on fixing the problem with that tire and getting it back on your tractor. I know that we can have problems like this with our tractors and is preparing to have all the equipment ready to solve that problem on my tractors also. Thanks for sharing this information with all of us in this video and hope you don't have that problem again. I had one of the front tire's to go flat on my older tractor and had to take it to one tire shop twice to get it repaired properly, but have the tractor back in action and look out for anything which can damage my tires.

i liked the video. very well done-imo.

Looks like she needs a pair of tie rod ends too...! And a guy with a tractor HAS TO HAVE a High Torque Dewalt or Milwaukee 1/2" 20V Cordless Impact...! (And somebody's going to have to unload that tire/wheel when you get to town...!) And I would have put a tiny dab of grease on those wheel studs before putting the lug nuts back on...

Excellent video, perfectly entertaining for me, thanks to no bloody music and no talking at all, too. Very rare, very, very good, I mean it. Thanks a lot. Just one question. The air is compressible, water is not. What is a purpose of making tire less (or almost not at all) compressible, even this way?

I usually put the jack under before letting tyre down, especially if you only have a small jack. Not many jacks have the range to lift height of flat to full tyre, most of water will drain and what doesn't will when you lay it flat.

Guess this one came from Basildon tractor plant i Worked there just about all my working in the test dept engines on test beds or tractor coupled to p t o dynamometer happy days they were Gordon Exmouth UK

Just when you were getting to the good part. Thank you.

Jesus mac those blocks and the small jack..........................glad everything worked out ok

Best part was watching the puppy

I was thinking when he took the tyre and rim off and put a stand under it, Id have some more blocking and lower the screw and ram of the jack, and low and behold the man done just that.

There are so many things wrong with this or different I don't know where to begin. First if it is leaking and up get it to shop. Next we change tires on rim if they are that big. That size is pretty easy with a wood wedge and two screw drivers or tire irons. We use chloride and water for weight and try save it. No shield on bush hog PTO. Never mind safety what about grass wrapping on shaft

I like this video.

Lets see if how much I got correct? Your tire is was going flat? No, I didn't' watch much of it. Your tire has calcium/water in it for rear wheel weight, so you would need a ramp/2x8's? to take it up (pully comalong) into the truck box? Lift the axle up first after (loosening) the lug nuts before removing the calcium/water mix as it corrosive. This will reduce the amount you have to left the axle. Your jack is small. I got an 8 ton jack many years ago it worked very well for my Toyota' pickups. We had a Ford 3000 Super Dexta Select -O-Speed for many years, was a good tractor, my first diesel 1970 June 21.

4:00 that looks stable enough. LOL

That’s nice you can use water in the tiers to load them, can’t do that in NY where I’m from :(

Nice running little ford.though o no calcium on tractor. Like that attachment u got to put on hose to fill tire. But here need calicum.for 30 beliw

If you weld a piece of pipe with a cap over your stem it eliminates the problem. Luca

That’s an awesome little tractor I have a Ford 4000su on my channel if you want to see it.

I've realized there aren't many channels that make these types of videos.

Two quick safety comments. Hollow cinder blocks, hollow bricks etc should never be used as wheel chocks because they are very brittle and fracture easily, leaving the machine they are chocking able to move unexpectedly. Similarly, they shouldn't be used as blocks to raise the base of a jack etc for the same reason, thankfully you didn't do that. But the timber blocking that you did use under the jack was not really suitable either. Ideally for that lift, to maximise stability, you would use four four such blocks, two parallel to the tractor and separated by a block width as a base, and two at right angles above the base layer. This spreads the load on the ground much more evenly and virtually eliminates the tendency for blocks to roll as the load is taken.

Sort of like watching your neighbor mow his lawn.

So the tire didn't come back loaded...obvious by the way you tossed it around. You must live in the south as not needing calcium to keep the load from freezing. Great video, so many camera placements.

BTW seems if I remember right you don't have to take off the WHOLE rim and tire as the rim is in two section and you can just take off the outside portion and deal with far less weight issues. Also you dont have to deal with ALL the weight just a smaller portion of it.

Never fails my friend. Also not sure how cold it gets down there but it might not be a bad idea to put methanol in that tire instead of water so it won’t freeze. Wouldn’t wanna be fixing it again come winter ❄️

OK i Ok I'm watching this to learn. I don't own a tractor but there is a similar one for sale nearby. I had no idea there was water in the tire. I have a lot to learn. On an unrelated observation. Did anybody else have a concern that he was going to run over the puppy around 8;35when he pulled out, or maybe hit a squirrel at 9:08?

That would be a job rolling that tire and wheel upon the truck

PUPPY!!

You must be in a warm part of the country. Straight water in the tire! Around here they used to use a mixture with calcium chloride. But it rusts the wheels pretty bad. Maybe they have something better now.

Don't you love the Trolls on the Net! Most of them are armchair warriors that have never turned a wrench or maybe even had a job because they live in mommy's basement.

HOW NOT to break or tighten lug nuts!!! ...and the jack was leaning bad enough to have been the source of a major trip to the emergency room if not a final blow!

Nice 3000 I have one just like it under the shed

How much water are you putting in that tire and how do you measure the amount your putting? Just guessing?

I'd give you a spare speed handle. Cordless impacts rule. Good tractor for brush hogging.

Take not to long bar to use at making the lift both safer and easier, by sticking through any hole in the wheel. Then just push

That’s a whole lot of wasted calcium chloride

Looks like you've done this before. We have to use beet juice or antifreeze up here to keep unfrozen ballast. You videography and editing are well done. Great video, thanks.

I have a 5600 ford pulling off rolling it up in the bed of your pu is not a qption. I jack it up break the bead pull the tube patch it put the tube back in then pump the cacl back in and go on.

Just wondering, why did you park it so far away from the workshop?

I am curious why you did not repair the inner tube yourself at home?

@6:54, THE TRACTOR LOOKS LIKE ITS LEANIN, BUT THE FRONT BUMPER IS LEVEL

I guess the guys fixing the flat didn't want to be Filmed. That would have been educational. I liked the way you handled the tire though.

I have had old timers tell me about water in the tires but never saw it. Just one question what do you do if it gets below freezing? I think it’s cool.

This wheel must be made out of aluminum and can't have water in it when you put it back on. Looks to easy for things to go so good.

Not very safe. No shielding on that PTO shaft. Don't let OHSA see that.

Stability no a concern...WORK WITH WHAT WE HAVE AVAILABLE.

there's a better way than just making a mass

I guess that I would have really freaked out , because I wasn't aware that those tires were filled with water , instead of air

What year is this ford tractor and does it have a selecto speed transmission? Model 4500 or 5000????

Pushing in the direction you want tire and wheel to swing.
