    2 years ago I was mowing some fields and I was asked to come over and mow a yard that hadn't been mowed since her husband died. While mowing I came across her husbands tractor out in the weeds a 1953 ford tractor gas model 6 volt reverse polarity +ground. I inquired about the tractor and was told that I could try and start it. It took me 1day to replace the plugs, Points and condensor. I put my jumped cables on the ol boy and started him up. My new friend and her daughter were very happy to hear Dads tractor start and purr.

      @@FRLN500 Because Henry and Edsel were active financiers of both sides of the war - they willingly merged Ford's European branches with the I.G. Farben chemical cartel and foreign banking infrastructure throughout the 20s and 30s.
      General Motors did the same, going so far as to help Germany produce Opel tanks and supply them with synthetic gas well into the 40s. See the late Antony Sutton's book, "Wall St. and the Rise of Hitler."
      That doesn't detract from Ford's legacy as a great inventor, industrialist, marketer, etc. But it does mean that Eisenhower's "Military-Industrial Complex" is a very real phenomenon and this caste of internationalists don't care about any given country.

    I still drive our families Jubilee tractor and it runs like it's new. I believe it's a 1957 and since that time the engine was rebuilt once, as I remember in the mid 80s. Every function still works as if it was new. It's proof that they truly don't make things like they used too and that's a shame. It's an amazing piece of history for sure and you can tell price in workmanship was applied to it, which again is something we don't see a lot these days.

    On our NH farm we had a similar model, the 1954 Allis-Chalmers CA. The CA had a similar hydraulic system that was very handy for many implements. That hand-clutch was extremely useful to keep the PTO engaged while stopping the forward motion. Also, you could mount idler wheels for a half-track to plow snow without spinning the wheels.

      Never saw them used for much real farming where I grew up. The little fords from 9n up were common as dirt but only used as small chore/garden tractors around me. They were nice for raking hay and pulling hay wagons and fire wood trailers and such as long as you didn’t have any steep hills to go down with a load or tried to make any sudden stops because they were too small and light and the brakes on them were trash, only good for a couple hard stops before they gave up the ghost 😂

    Ok. I wish my dad had owned a jubilee ford for me to learn to operate it on. Instead, he bought two brand new super dexta diesels. I think 63 or 64 models. Biggest two pieces of crap I ever had to drive. It most of the time had to be pushed off on a hill to crank because it ate starters and batteries like a cow eating grass. You had to be careful toting an implement down the road , the lift would fall and drop and let it hit the ground for no reason . The brakes would wear out after working a couple 50 acre fields . If you got it started in the mornin, you better leave it running all day because you might not get it back started if you shut it off. The day they were delivered from the dealer brand new, one of them had to be jumped off to crank it. They were terrible .

    I just purchased a 1954 Golden Jubilee with front end loader and rear blade. I plan to restore it and any helpful information would be greatly appreciated. It runs great but the rear hydraulic pump is slow and the cylinders and pump for the front end loader are leaking oil and will have to be rebuilt. I'm looking for resource material that will guide me in that process. Thanks, in advance, for any helpful advice.

    At 15:47 the front loader guard rams the back of the trailer. Should have fitted a counter weight.

      They were a good tractor thanks to Harry Ferguson , he sued Ford and won for infringing his hydraulic system , he got either $ 4,000000 or £4,000000 i just forget now.

    I picked up an LCG from an auction at a golf course for 1100 bucks a couple of years ago. I built a loader for it, it's great for mowing and small stuff and fast as hell too! She ain't replacing my D21 or 220 FWA as my favorite though. And I will be looking for a 4W-305 this year! Or a 3588 if I can't find an AC.

    had the next model 650 . loved it ! 5spd and originally with power steering .
    one doesnt think much of a simple -governor- but some PTO generator companies allowed THIS series gas engine to run because GOVERNOR was responsive enough to maintain 60hz .
    little tractor will PULL some kinda LOGS if use 3pt weight transfer properly .

    How much PS had that tractor? I have an oldy as well and believe it's from the 70's. It's an For 3600 and has as I have understood 55 PS. We recentply overhauled the Motor completely and it's allmost as new now. Hydraulik does not work but we use it for fodder carrying on an farm for the cows were we dont Need the hydraulics. At least Motor is as new and clutch as well. Doesnt break anymore but thats not needed neighter. This Ford 3600 has an fixed shovel/Scoop on it's 3-arm-point were it carries the fodder and Silage around once a day. It uses very less fuel (about 30 Liters per month) as I Need to fill the fuel tank only once a month. Looses some oil (rear hydraulic oil compartment or gearbox) underneath but have an eye on it it's not worth the Investment to fix it as now. The Motor has been opened the first time as we let it repair a few months ago (but thats only because some latino workers probably did not wathch the Motor oil Level) so it Held up about 30 years without ever overhauling the Motor. The Chassis is a bit rusty and used but back then they used real rust retardant metal.

      I counted four at one point! I see that tractor data.com has the capacity listed as 2* with no description of what the asterisk means.

    • @davesutherland7599
      @davesutherland7599 4 роки тому +1

      The asterisk refers to most conditions,variations can be any from soil type,depth you want to plow at, rear tire size and properly added weight for ballast to increase traction as well as cutting width of each furrow that will require more or less load on tractor . proper adjustment of the plow also helps. the 1953 also had more hp than an 8n.

    • @5153flash
      @5153flash 4 роки тому

      I was plowing in unbroken ground and it was clay. I guess if you had broken ground from previous years and it was soft dirt ,,like sand you could pull a 3 bottom? Maybe?

      Had the n series tractors had a creeper gear, they could have pulled much more, it's all in the gearing.

    I prefer the 850 myself but the Jubilee is a good tractor it has decent power more then the 8n before it and live engine hydraulics Wich are much better then the PTO driven system before it and it's so good this is the system that's still used today

    My dad and I have one of these I started driving it when I was 7yrs old, he had it at the ford dealer 3 or 4 times to get the 3 point fixed because it wouldn't lift after I brought it over to where I live I had that fixed in 1 hour, my dad had the engine overhauled because he thought it was using oil but he missed the fact it was overfilling the transmission what I found was the two seals that seal the pump from engine crankcase were worn out so the pump sucked up the engine oil enough to lube the pump to keep it from seizing up. Since I fixed it the engine doesn't use oil and the three point works perfect every time.
