Love your Count von Count laugh, it reminded me of when I was a sophmore at UMD & had a broken ankle, I would watch Sesame Street & laugh with my youngest brother who was 4 at the time. Mom would feed us lunch.

You can tell it’s a clutch part because of the way it is…..how neat is that.

@ke6gwf 2 года назад

CLUTCH BRAKE!! Yes Virginia, it WILL make a truck VERY hard to get into gear. (the clutch brake stops the input shaft of the transmission spinning when you push the clutch pedal all the way down. When the engine is running and the transmission is out of gear, the input shaft and front gears are all spinning at engine speed, while the rear gears on the transmission are stationary, and when you push the clutch in, it can take a long time for the input shaft to coast down to a stop to be able to mesh with the rear gears, and if the clutch drags even a little bit, they never slow down, so the clutch brake squeezes between the clutch mechanism and the input shaft to slow it down, until the gears will mesh.) It helps to shut the engine off, slide it into gear as the engine slows down, then step on the clutch and restart the engine, until you can put the new clutch brake in!

@justthings6405 2 года назад

As a farmer we do talk to ourselves a lot. It wasn't so much about saying 1, it was the mental accomplishment about actually getting to the task at hand as "lists" in a farmer's head are so huge that accomplishing something is an "accomplishment" if that makes sense! After this job, the mind goes to different maturity seed orders, ordering fuel, hauling grain, getting filters on things when they were back ordered, getting fertilizer lined up on correct fields, crop insurance, work on machinery that was buried in the snow, etc, and then the worry of "what if" I can't get into that field because of being way too wet so I have to switch fields, and that one is not fertilized correctly, can I get the part I need at the time when something breaks, spend time with the kids and wife, get to my meetings, etc...........................lot on the plate to absorb with $100s of thousands of dollars already invested in something that isn't even in the ground yet. just a little stress don't you think? Faith is what farmers run on...

@stevenicoson6670 2 года назад

Thanks for another great video. It was interesting and enjoyable. I am not for sure about this but believe what you found is a clutch brake out of one of your trucks. Is one of them hard to shift???? That’s the one. Your yard looks nice all leveled off. Off course you could blacktop it, only cost a dollar or two. Just saying. Seems with a bin system there is always something that needs fixing. Nature of the beast I guess on a farm. Busy time hauling corn and getting jobs done before planting season. Thanks for your outlook on the timeline of are we behind in planting. Interesting how your part of the country does it and of course you have a different soil type. Here in central Iowa a lot of corn in the ground already. Seems soil types is the governing factor. Hope you can get going soon. The tractor you have for sale should go quick. Nice unit with low hours. Good luck with the sale. About it for now. Will be quiet now. You all take care and be safe. Looking forward to the next video. Thanks for everything. Good to see your dad and Jim. The Iowa farm boy.

Factory clutch brake is 1 piece but when they wear out people cut them out. Put in 2 piece clutch brake so they don't have to removed trans to replace it. When we do clutches 1 piece are put back in because 2 piece are known to come apart. Either pins come out or break off bolts holding them together. Many mis-adjust the clutch causing them to drag so you're sitting there pushing hard on clutch pedal trying to stop clutch from turning to get it into gear

@RealJohnWayne 2 года назад

Hey there Zach, I hope this finds you all well and good! I won both of the dog bets, so you can go ahead and put my $200 check in the mail. With compaction being a major concern today, why do you add ballast to your tractors without weighing them? Too much ballast can have a detrimental effect on a variety of different factors, including the most important one........yield. Too little ballast can also have a detrimental effect on a variety of different factors, however it does not affect the most important one......yield. It's been estimated that a majority of the tractors in the US are either over ballasted, improperly ballasted, or both. In many instances, additional weight is not your friend. I hope y'all have a good one, and can start putting the seed in the ground, it's almost May. "Nothing Runs Like A Deere" 🦌👍🇺🇸

@Kolton_Wagner 2 года назад

He has explained somewhat before, but our ground(we farm in NW MN) is very heavy so it gets deep tillage every year and the freeze-thaw cycles help to break that ground up. Compaction isn’t much of a concern because of those factors. We also seem to run out of traction quickly if they aren’t weighted down, the right tires or tracks will help but don’t fix it. Although you do make a very good point of proper weights and balance for a tractor.

@RealJohnWayne 2 года назад

@@Kolton_Wagner I grew up on a farm, owned a John Deere Dealership, and a farm, and have tried to educate farmers about their overweight tractors for decades, but they can be a stubborn bunch, especially when they reach the grey stage, like I'm in now. Once most farmers have ballasted their tractor to what they think it should be, it stays that way for life, when in fact the reason that Deere makes their weights as easy as possible to change, is that if you want to be as efficient as possible, ballast may need to be changed as the seasons and applications change. About 90% of farmers have no idea as to what the formula for calculating the proper amount of ballast for their tractors is, and probably 99% don't realize it's different for their Mechanical Front Wheel Drive (MFWD) Tractor, than it is for their 4 Wheel Drive Tractor.
