JOHN DEERE 830 DIESEL PLOWING - JOHN DEERE 830 SPECIAL TRIPLE!!! 

That's an ingenious idea very nicely carried out, and a lovely way to repurpose old equipment for modern methods.

Finally, a weird tractor creation in a thumbnail that's not Photoshop clickbait!

now thats some serious power, big boy toys...nice

What that farmer done is really extremely very amazing to be able to watch an see what that man was given the ability to be able to figure out how to connect 3 tractor's together to accomplish what he's doing! 👍

Now this is something you don't see every day!

Now that's a tri-ctor!

Even though this ground has already been plowed, leveled, plowed again, and perhaps again, it’s still Impressively! Shade tree engineering at its most impressive. 👍 I’m envious…….

Love those little V-4 starting motors...wonder how the gear selection is made... beautiful !

The man is a legend. He also built a three "D" tractor that is so maneuverable I saw him back it around several obstacles. The sound of those "D"s will make you wet your pants.

Gotta love innovation! Great job on the build.

Thank you for a great video

Now that's what you call a showstopper oh my gosh three engines running and harmony together I can imagine having that out in Montana where they have the dryland farming and plowing out there Man that thing would have been worth this weight and gold cuz it would cover a lot of ground real real fast thank you for sharing this and kudos to the man that engineered and put all of that together he needs John Deere needs just to take and have a long conversation with him he might be able to come up with something for him that really works well thank you for sharing

Cool! But the fuel bill's gotta be a killer!

Great tractor, It plows up here in the red river valley heavy soil.

So, I wonder how well that rig would plow sod? That dirt looks worn out from being plowed again and again!

too cool! First time seeing that one. 57 420c

What a peculiar looking vehicle

Since i didn't see steering cylinders like an articulated tractor normally does. Its using the brake for steering?

I've seen a number of videos showing the 830 special but nobody has explained how he can shift all three transmissions. I have to imagine that with all the amazing work that went into that thing that he must be able to shift from the cab but how does it work? Similar question with the three clutches. Going out on a limb I'm guessing all those hydraulic lines have something to do with it!

Nice

Three engines is always better than one

How wonderful to watch a video without the BULLSHIT background music. Just the sounds of the equipment. 🇺🇸

Nothing like plowing a field that’s already been plowed.

I saw it there in 22. If that's 300 horsepower he got them running good. The 830 put out around 73 belt hp on tractor data.

love v4

Guys it's 2023, gotta call em "helper" units

when was it built have you seen the 3 chamberlain tractors that was built in the 70s here in South Australia

goood

You should see Don's pulling tractor.

Wonder how it would do on unworked ground ?

Did I count that right, a 12 bottom plow?! I suppose he’d have to do some inventive maneuvering to get the corners with a plow that big.

So cool, how does he haul it? 😮

I wonder how many computers this gentleman used to get this unit to operate?

I seen don at a tractor pull on time with a souped up 830 at the end of the pull you could see he was mad because he just could not beat a wd9 it spanked don hard

I got to wonder about fuel consumption.

Imagine telling yoir banker you need to borrow to money to build 3 trqctors into one!!!

All that crazy for 200hp. Lol

3 tractors....and still only 6 cylinders.

looks weird but it will good if we had this in fs22

a deere was rated at 8 plows shouldn't you have a few more than that

Made in 59? ....not one bit is CNC or 3D printed, all machinist made by hand. Damn. It still runs too! Try that with a 2003 anything!

Really….why? 😂

12 out of 10 for ingenuity, talent, and workmanship. Aside from that, it’s a frankenstein. I’m just not feeling it. Sorry. I’d rather see 3 individual tractors harnessed together like the Budwieser clydesdales instead of seeing three tractors chopped up. Still, I’m not knocking the talent and hard work that went into it. It’s just an impractical setup.

What a waste of three great tractors.
