Great video. I used a well worn, standard fordson supermajor with a rear forklift, in the early 1990’s, somewhat character building loading & unloading lorry’s with trolleys of pot plants, lovely old thing
I think this is so cool! You could be hired out by someone who has a large estate, or big lot that needs mowing. Ford manufactured many of this type of tractor here in the US, and are treasured, they are a workhorse!
Hi, good to see your Super Major 6 cylinder, with the Major and the Simms pump you only need to bleed to the pump and put the cold start in and she will fire up you don't need to open the injectors with a Simms injection pump, but good to put in the cold start
Interesting. You don't have a super Major.You have a super Major front cowl. What you have is a probably pre 1958 tractor .Your tractor has drum brakes and a low level throttle lever..The Super was introduced in the early 1960's and had disc brakes tight against the transmission housing.
Oh ok I was told if it has the gauges where they are it's a super but i did notice she did not have disk brakes. If you like the channel why not subscribe!
this is my kind of channel!! subscribed! I own a standard fordson major diesel from the 50s, I have it since I was a boy in the 90s. Going to be restored soon
No, once I rewatched it and saw you taking it for a test drive, it is pretty big with it’s stretched frame…it just looked small when you were standing next to it, talking…
If you ever go to Cromer [North Norfolk] have a look on the beach, it is a Fordson graveyard, about a dozen or so used on the beach to haul boats up the gravel beach.
Loving this boyo 👍👍 It sounded like it ran sweet as a nut, looking forward to seeing the work on it. When are you getting another SD1 😉 It's slightly strange seeing you in 4k 🤣🤣 I'm used to the old vids.
I hope you wedged the diff lock pedal down on the DavidBrown before you removed the right hand hub reduction or you will struggle to get the half shaft back in 🤦♂️
this is not a super major, only a nose cone from a super major. It should have the dash on top of the tank with the throttle control, the high low range is standard major setup, the super major was the opposite with gear lever up for high range, no rear lift arms and painted yellow, probabley an industrial model.
Welcome to the darkside I have recently purchased a power major that needs tlc. Empire blue is the 0riginal colour of yours. Are you going to keep the yellow? Oh the suspense...
That's an E1A Major with a 6D not a super, super major had throttle on the colum and gauges were not down where yours are, also looks industrial so no hydraulics. Still a nice machine but not a super. Nice 6D note though, all is good.
