Thank you for watching. It was a cool time in farming. Stay tuned for the 90’s and 2000’s.

You had 3 7488? Wow! Where are they now?

They only made 2 7488 tractors. How did you get 3?

@@dedrakuhn6103 they made 14 pal

Really!

Do tracked tractors drive differently than regular tractors 🚜🤔.

Thank you for watching. There are many more tractors I hope to find to film. .

Glad to provide a break. That is my goal to help give some stress relief. Thank you for your work. You are on the front lines working a supermarket.

Let me apologize for the way people act.

@@GT-fi4sk thank you. People are just scared and as a father I completely understand.

😁👍👍

We had a 674 .. it was a very versatile tractor.. did a lot of raking, plowing!

And I say that, but those 94 series J.I. Cases though😍😍😍😍😍 I love the Color scheme on those before they went to red and black. Of course I like my meadow and mist green and silver most

😁👍. Thank you for watching.

Now an all V8 engine video would be very cool. I am always looking for V8s but have only filmed a Ford FW-60 with a Cummins 903, IH 4786 with a DTV800 and a JD 8850 with a Deere 955. Hopefully other like the Massey 2805, 1155 and 1150 turn up. As well as 4wds like the Steiger Tigers, White Field Bosses, IH 4568 and more. Plus the Oliver 2255, IH 1468 and 1568.

That would be neat.

It’s a great sound.

Thank you for watching.

Very nice. The 4894 was a big tractor 40 years ago.

👍👍

Yup

The ant eater lol.

How come the bonnets are so long? 2 engines?

@@HughieMunro just one engine. Not sure why they designed it that way.

Wow that’s cool. The 4900 is on the rare side. I hope to film a 4900 some day.

I purchased a 4900,4880 and a 4840 this winter and hope to have them all working this spring. I used to have a 4840 in the 90’s and missed having it around. They are easy to work on, very dependable and that huge cab rides like a dream.

Two cool tractors. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you for watching.

I can't agree more. International 1486 was so fun but then a 5488 4wd. Wow I felt like a king

Mark Osmond I put a lot of time in on the seat of a 1486 everything from chisel plowing and disking to hauling liquid manure and then chopping hay and corn. I liked that tractor a lot.

All very nice tractors. Cool line up.

2+2 didn’t last long . Like versatile 140 and New Holland 145

Thank you for watching.

A neighbor of ours had a 2+2 and could not understand why we called them anteaters.

@@rodneycraig3118 hi I'm from Scotland, Snoopy I can understand but Anteaters? I don't see it

@@alanreid3063 because of the long hood that could resemble a snout of an anteater

My family in Minnesota calls them “moose nose” tractors

Not that rare yes ones in good condition are but they had a decent production years

Martin Barkaway Nielsen The European version of the 1455XL built in Neuss is the undefended champion of best sounding tractor of the 20th century (1900-2000). That turbo whistle will bring me joy until the day I die. Example @ kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gLaldqWbqM3TlGw.html

It was a very tough time in farming.

@@bigtractorpower It was the decade we lost our farm as well.

😁👍👍

Very nice tractor line up. I live in Western Kentucky. Massey Ferguson builds some solid tractor.

@@bigtractorpower thank you , when a tractor preforms good for me I hang onto it. The 3 tractors I have will do everything I need done .You should come over my way and make some video's in Hardin County and Larue County lot of nice farm land around Glendale it has the famous restaurant The Whistle Stop and between Hodgensville home town of Abe Lincoln I live in Hardin Co. You have a straight drive on Western Kentucky Parkway to the very end to Elizabethtown turn right go south 5 miles to Glendale. If you go straight Hodgensville is 11 miles. Lot of nice farms between.

I remember them being so advanced for the time. Watching this video I was thinking they look so simple.

133dave133 they still are very amazing tractors

Caleb Eigenberg H⚾⚾⚾⚾

I remember one of the local BTOs got some when I was a kid. Thought they were the coolest things in the world

I one time worked for a farm that used 2 4840's to pull 2 John Deere 7000 planters, man those tractors were powerful .

@@rodneycraig3118 Yes they are, I remember pulling the harrow and moving the lever left and right to give more or less power/ground speed, Powershift!

For the machines and atmosphere/culture but definitely not the economics.

Alan Meuler Steigers are still hard at work in Australia

Very cool. The Deutz Allis 8070 is a rare tractor today.

PIPER DOUG I agree ! And I think he has two of them ? One has a trans problem ! I think ? But it has a new Cummins motor in it,

Very cool.

I heard of guys that changed em right out in the field too

700, 900, 895, 935, and 1150...All of these tractors are great.

I has 156 HP.

Me too. So far I only have an AC 6080 filmed. I am always looking.

WFE made some great tractors. I just got a 4-270 filmed this week for a future video. I selected the 2-155 for this video because it was a top seller for WFE in the 80’s. I also had a chance to get a 4-150 filmed this spring as well.

👍👍

😁👍👍

Best junk ever made

@@jasonleckrone2577 lol

Great red power line up.

@@bigtractorpower thank you!

😁👍👍

But if you do find the traction they will pull all day long for about a week then the back end will shit itself and cost an arm and a leg. Especially the 2290s. I know, I own one. Great motor the 504, smooth and a shitload of torque but the back ends are weak.

@@stevenowen4150 Our 2590's have held up well in rice, and soybean land. We have 2 that we disc with.

Jeremy Benoit after we had ours put back together they put it on the dyno and it gave a reading of 153 pto hp. The injector pump has never been played with, thats how it came from the factory. If my maths are about right, id say the 504 in it was putting out close on 165 hp. They’re only meant to be around 140 hp if i remember correctly. Its no wonder she ripped her arse out. Like i said its always been a case of scratchin for traction but when it does hook up it will pull hard. I used to fill the inner duels with water and leave the outers empty. Now i leave both empty and put up with a bit of tyre slip. Run about eight psi in each. Its cheaper than repairing another back end. We gave the motor an in frame last year after it got a micro hole in one of the liners. You couldnt even see the hole with the naked eye, but that little micro hole could pour out water faster than you could put it in. After nearly eight thousand hours, the bores looked like they were still brand new same with the pistons n rings.even the big ends were as new. It was very cheap to do up compared to a Cat or Cummins or a.JD JD JD JD JD. LOL. They are a wonderful motor and can put out huge amounts of power and still stay together. Its a wonder there isnt more used as pulling tractors. A set of triple turbos and a bit more juice, they’d go like a rocket. Lol. The only other thing im not to happy about with the 90 series is the way they ride. Definitely not the smoothest riding tractor ever made. They are though one of the last makes of tractors that you can work on without all the computeree bullshit that they now run on. Black magic that I no understandery. 👍👍

@@stevenowen4150 Yeah man. I'm with you on the new stuff.

😁👍👍

i agree mate, what a nice lookin old yoke it is with that huge planter and the lad was keeping a nice straight line too lol

😁👍👍. I hope to get to film a Mercedes some day.

@@bigtractorpower In the mean time listen to this: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jtWerMSIprDYqWQ.html Or this: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/m5hgftmp2NXPd2Q.html Even at 40% more power it burns clean. :-)

😁👍
