I clicked on this video as soon as i saw an Oliver! Grandad had an 1800 from 1964. Love those tractors. Lots of memories came rushing back from my childhood. Farmers are mechanics, carpenters, electricians, and everything else. 🚜🚜
"we don't mix beer and heavy machinery" belongs on the back of a shirt! Thats our new motto at the shop and part of our safety program! Love the videos long time subscriber keep up the great work supporting US Family Agriculture
I have to say the interaction you and your father have is the best part of your channel. I'm actually jealous my dad and I never had that, not one day of our lives.
Gotta ask,,,has you're dad spent time as a tractor mechanic? His understanding of the working parts on older equipment is amazing. People with that ability right out of the gate are EXTREMELY rare.
Love it seeing old school tractors still earning their keep.Ill give you both credit back when my family farmed it was always My dad and Uncles doing that work.Great job and excellent videos letting those who have never been on a farm see the daily grind.May you and your family continue to be blessed.
Howdy ya'll, I hope your doing well, Ya that was pretty Cool, it always amazes me at the engineering that went on back than, just amazing to me seeing exactly how these old girls worked, all those gears, and leavers working together, to make these tractors move and plant, harvest, haul and so on, just so Cool to me, really enjoyed this video ya'll, Another Great video with Great content, Stay safe and Farm on my Friends, Peace
"Your wife helped with her little fingers" last time the tractor broke and you got a free pop.... Interesting, hope you shared the soda with your wife. What an interesting repair video. You guys rock.
All I can say is wow. It's like performing surgery lol. Great job for taking on a huge project and taking us along with you. What kind delicious birthday cake was it? Can't wait till the next video. God Bless you all!!
I locked up an Oliver 1550, trying to shift to fast, not being stopped and shifting! I droped a bolt down in a JD B, and I tried everything to get it out, Nope! Then Oh, the Wife! Her small hands reached right down in there and got it out! Hey, don't keep us in suspense, I want to see that tractor move!🤣
Impressive you did all that in 1 day...plus took care of the cows! You guys should invest in a shop gantry. I'm sure you could find a good used one. Make life a lot easier!
That's pretty cool watching you guys work on the Oliver Transmission. My late Uncle Bill and Cousin Dale have three old McCormick Farmall tractors. One's a 1948 Farmall M. My Uncle Bill's first tractor that he drove as a kid it hasn't been run in many years.
Love the (leftover from the wedding) line. We just had a daughter get married and now lots of leftovers to eat.Wedding was great but so much food leftover! YOU CAN ONLY EAT SO MANY LEMON BARS IN ONE DAY 😂.Thanks 😅.
Again hope that Mom had a good birthday. I worked at a hospital at one time and the medical field doesn't take days off like everyone else does, even department secretaries. Good Video. Love the "I think that part goes there" logic. Know it will work. Also noticed that you still sound a little froggy Aaron. Hope you get better soon. Was Mariska up all night again. She looked so comfortable. We are getting lake affect snow today, not much but cold and blowy out. Thanks for the video and keep safe.
Happy Birthday Mom! Sorry that you had to work on your birthday, but then again someone has to support the farming habit! Yet another stellar video from the farm, gentlemen. There's almost always something that could use a little attention, especially when running equipment which is so close to having fully earned its keep... She's not quite ready for the parade circuit yet! It looked nice and clean inside as if you care for your machinery on a regular basis, well, at least it looked clean before the dirt got knocked in! Bless'ns to the both of ya's, Tedd
Oliver sure got a lot out of their chassis design. From the Oliver Hart Parr 70 row crop all the way to the Whites used the same layout. The nice thing about that is you can pull the engine and gut the transmission and still have a rolling chassis. I just my second Oliver tractor. It's a Super 77 diesel that I bought to run my generator with and use for other odd jobs. Jury is still out on how good of a tractor it's going to be. Parts seem hard to come by as no one hardly stock the oil filters for it at about $30 a piece.
Love the Olivers, Cockshutts, here in Canada. Still have an 1850 and a 1600. I’d be worried about the rear tires being so far out on the axles. Dad and I had problems when bad axle bearings let the resulting sloppy axle tear the splines off itself. Finding a replacement axle would not be easy today. We were always gentle with the hydrapower shift, used the clutch shifting up. Never had a hydrapower problem.
It all goes to show you that you a always afraid to throw anything away. It may several months before you may need it. When I through any parts away I most likely say. Why did I do that.
4:01 - You are correct. Always flip the hydra-power into low to shift the main transmission. Chris Losey explained it in a video called "shifting gears on Oliver tractor": ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-e7r9bX3ciTc.html Love the videos! You guys have a beautiful operation. Thanks for sharing!
Was that Maibach tractor in Creston Ohio that you got trans and reared from? They run an Oliver junkyard and are also an old dealer and an Agco dealer today good people
If you click on the "show more" that is found just after their description of the video, it will give you the whole address. But the P.O. Box # was 706.
