Maybe it's just me but the tone of your voice and the way you tell the story of what your doing to this tractor is so relaxing and easy going those of us that fix stuff for a living usually use much different vocabulary lol
@@frankwise7464 ohh yeah...theres often alot of that colorful language involved in this type of work...usually cussin out the engineers that designed the junk we're workin on 😅🤣
Supper easy to watch! I noticed while watching my mouth was wide open, how is Pete going to get this one back together. I know he will and it is fun to watch and learn. Thank you Pete, I guess you will have to restore the two parts tractors. lol
Like farmer's back in the day, you fix most everything yourself and you have become an expert Pete !!! Being mechanically inclined is a must !!! But you show us anyone with a little patient's, tool's and the right books can do this !!! I enjoy watching your videos !!! Great Farmer, mechanic, teacher an much more !!! Thank You Pete !!! GOD BLESS !!!
In my life I've known a lot of people who had different disciplines and types of work, but as good as they were, they weren't teachers. You are a teacher. I appreciate that.
Pete you are one hell of a FarmAll Tractor mechanic! Not many people know the inner workings like you do and can totally relate it to us viewers in such an entertaining way! Thoroughly enjoyable!
Good morning Pete, You know when you look at your tractor they really were simple and don't require much to pull apart and fix. I do fix stuff and older equipment was so simple compared to todays JUNK. Hope you enjoy fixing your tractor except your occasional mashed knuckles😜🤣Blessing to you and Hill.
These videos are a true joy to watch. My husband is so envy with jealousy he's been taking apart things all of his life. I believe he started with a lawn mower engine when he was 8 years old, tore it apart and rebuilt it!!!
Life should be stress-free, and I'm happy for you, Pete, that this project is indeed stress-free! I'm enjoying the diagnostic process, as you dismantle and assess the scope of the work. Thanks for another great video.
Always enjoy your tractor videos…part of farming! You are teaching future generations a valuable lesson on machine maintenance and repair. My hats off to you.
Pete,it's amazing whomever figured out how to design and put together the gearing and bearing and seals to go through all the punishment that a tractor went through as stood the test of time. You really could be an instructor on these tractors. Really enjoyable watching your videos. Looking forward to the future videos as you rebuild and restore.
hi Pete, I was wanting to find a tractor restore a few months back. God came through & showed me your channel + I really respect you for not swearing on your channel. Loving your restore. Have an awesome day.
Love taking apart complicated things, but putting them back together, don't ask. You learn as you go but after the build, it sure feels nice. Great video to watch with a morning coffee.
I have never lived on a farm, never driven a tractor but I could watch these videos for hours. Great job on all of your videos. I love the way you just be you and we get to come along on the adventures.
Pete, I have said it several times before, but I absolutely love your commentary during these videos. You are so thorough, patient, and so relaxed! I am no real mechanic, but I find these videos very instructional, and entertaining. Thank you for your time and explanation!!!
It's the Farmall C or Super C and a Farmall 200 that I first learned to drive / operate on the farm! That was 1971ish. I've been a green fan for most of my adult life but you have me going RED! I would love to convince my wife that I NEED an old red tractor on the farm. Our farm is very small and doing many of the things you are doing with about half of the acreage so we have to buy our winter hay. Love all of your videos!
I could only dream of having a video like this when I tackled a Farmall Super A in 2003 when I had an enormous desire to perfect the tractor, but very little knowledge. Other than the I&T and parts manuals the internet was non-existent. One plus was we still had a Case IH dealership in town at that time. They have been out of business for a long time now. However, online stores were getting going at that time. Purchased parts from O.E.M, Bates Corporation, Wengers of Myerstown, The Brillman Company and got some of the manuals from Binders Books. It is amazing how much has changed since that time!
Pete i need to teach you the rope trick. Dont use a chisel use 1/2 cotton rope and alow it to bind in the gears, not the chisels, and freeze the gear and removed the bolts....less chance of damage to the gears... i need a garage this townhouse is no fun anymore...LOl
Pete, I enjoy watching your “mechanic” videos. It may the preciseness and orderliness of appeals to me. Thanks for the video and the understandable explanations.
You have really helped us decide to increase our egg and meat bird production in 2023. Thanks for the great advice. Now i want to restore the old W4 we have as well.
That was cool...! In an Auto/Truck manual transmission there's a "Cluster" Gear at the bottom of the Case. It's a machined shaft w/many Gears on it that mesh w/the Input Gear/Synchronizes. The Cluster Gears spin but that's all... ya have to fill the internal shaft hole w/"Needle" Bearings held in place w/Grease..! Then you insert the Cluster Gear into the Case, slide the Cluster Gear Shaft into the case from the outside and be careful not to have all the Needle Bearings come out the other end...! If they do, you got start all over again...! =)
Pete! This is awesome content! I'm about to tear into a 1940 Model B and this series will be extremely helpful to me! I thoroughly enjoy all your videos and topics. You lead a rare life and present it well. Keep it up!
Not boring....I enjoy and learn a lot from your videos........subjects are not interesting unless the viewer is intereted.....whoever is bored is responsible for being bored.....
Pete. Just before you got the manuals out, and showed them, I was thinking, "I could never do this, without manuals " then you started showing & explaining the manuals. Also your talking to the parts, as you were disassembling them, was a lot softer language, than I would have used. Thank you for the tutorial.
Pete, I'm excited of what's going to look like on all your hard work in restoring this tractor will be. It's great that you have all the tools and equipment needed for this project. I can't wait to see and want to hear the engine once you rev the this marvelous tractor. Fans from Ireland 🇮🇪 👍🙏
Love the farmall videos, Been tinkering with my 1960 cub! Keep the videos rollin Pete, I always look forward to your uploads. I like the shirt too! Go buckeyes!!
I find petes videos. SOOO relaxing and informative ty pete and family for all you do! .i love watching pete work on IH antique iron! ,,, 🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Pete I do hope you make these into a playlist for folks wanting an informative rebuild so they can come back and find these video's of your tare down and rebuild of the super C and if you havent done it with the H you should as well...including the repairs after it dropped a valve as well. As usual another great and informative video that your family can enjoy long after we're all long gone.
I certainly enjoy these mechanical videos, and there is something fun about seeing the whole tractor disassembled into piles of relatively small parts kind of like a bunch of big Lego
really enjoyed this video about the mechanics of a transmission, and brakes etc. thanks so much for posting and explaining the process. have a great day.
Awesome video Pete. I hate working on things. But for some reason I like watching other people work on things. You’re really good at describing things in a way that I understand.
Pete have you considered making a home brew hot tanking system for cleaning your blocks and cases?? I built one from a 55 gal steel drum and propane burner. I put the block or case in it. Fill it with water and some Ajax Liquid Dish soap and get it to a boil. You'd be amazed at how clean everything comes out!! Gets all the dirt out of all the passages, bolt holes etc. In many cases it will also remove the paint. After boiling the block for about a half hour I pull it out and power wash it. Comes out spotless! Love the videos. Keep them coming!!
The inside of the case, etc is painted with an oil resistant paint, probably Glyptal. Keeps the case inside from rusting from condensation as well as shedding oil from the surfaces. You don't want to remove this coating. It can be re-applied, but its more work.
Just an FYI. A caliper and or indicator reading with pics can be sent to McGuire bearing and they can match 99.6% of all bearings and bushings and sleeves. It may save the proprietary fee associated with IHC. McGuire isnt the only bearing manufacturer either, and since your starting your winter rebuild project early, time waiting for a mail delivery shouldnt be too long or troublesome. Ihave repaired a plethora of JD, Ford, JCB Komatsu etc. bearings, gussets, bushings, sleeves etc. without paying premium from the parts stores of the equipment manfacturers. Great vid, awsome work.
Thanks for the honorable mention about the 560 series issue back in 1959! I was curious what exactly they replaced with their major recall. Especially so as I just acquired a late model (October by the casting code) 1959 560 Diesel that has sat in some trees for a few decades. I really appreciate your videos Pete!
Nice job Pete, I really enjoy these videos on tear down and thoughts that go with it. Keep it up can't wait to see the assembly and finally the use on the farm.
I had a feeling this was going to happen, lol. Knowing that you are intending to use it for the farm, just kinda told me, you were going to be going completely through it. This is going to make it last for many years to come. I always find these projects very fun and interesting to watch. Neat to see how everything works together. I have fun watching you have fun.
It is very interesting at the market and I love it also! But you will never learn how to repair or repear, no it is repair a Farmall tractor at the Farmers Market.
I enjoy these projects, watching you break down old model tractors such as the Super C is interesting. You can learn a lot from others work, if you pay attention. Some details look complicated, but I know you've got the resources to get it done. You've done several of these so I don't see any issues you can't get resolved fairly easy. Thanks Pete, have a wonderful week.
Interesting all the different names you have in the US for parts than we have in the UK. The shaft into the gearbox we call the Primary shaft, the lower shaft, the Layshaft and the one out, the Mainshaft. Cotter pins we call split pins ( Cotter pins are those wedge shaped pins that hold Bicycle pedals on! ) Those wedges that hold valve springs on are Collets and a Wrist Pin is called a Gudgeon Pin! Despite all those names we are enjoying following your progress.
Love these tractor videos. I've rebuilt some tractors, but never to the level you go to. Others have mentioned how these videos are relaxing. I agree and enjoy seeing a new tractor video of yours to watch with a cup of coffee.
The 'clutter' of your workshop is like a trip back in time and location. Grandpa's shop had similar cans of 'stuff' squirreled away under benches and counters, rakes, shovels, sledgehammers, etc leaning up against the walls-------yup, I bet it even smells the same; oil, grease, and cleaning solvents. Thanks for the tear down, Pete, and bringing us along.
Absolutely fascinating Pete your knowledge is top drawer , and the commentary is very entertaining can't wait for the next video 👍👀 regards from N Ireland .
I, for one, would appreciate watching how you wash out the case and the other parts. My least favorite part of the job and be glad to learn your tricks. For example, it would have never occurred to me to lift the housing with a bucket loader and pressure wash it. Of course, it seems obvious now. Anyway, always thankful that your share your wisdom and thoughtfulness.
