I'm pulling a jd 900 v ripper. It has 13 shanks. My restored steiger st450 set at 525 HP does a great job pulling it. It will be pulled with our restored 8850 someday. I love the old iron.
Nine years later the equivalent John Deere tractor has twenty more horsepower and costs 85% more. It would be nice if there'd been the same increase in grain prices.
Especially right now grain prices are hurting the entire agriculture sector. It is amazing at how the cost of machinery has risen in the past decade. A base 9R 640 in 2024 is $778,865. In 2014 a 9560R which was the largest John Deere tractor at the time was $355,914. The price of corn today is $4.16 and in 2014 it $4.16.
- nice video ... whats the airpressure on the tyres was it 480/80R50 and did it have svivels to adjust tyrepressure when running ? - I am from a Farm in Sweden .
The ability to adjust tire pressure while running is rarely used here. The hoses you see are to adjust the inner tire pressure more easily. As getting your hand/ inflator between can be difficult. Mainly on road tractors ( search "tire boss") Probably 10-12psi
It probably could, but at a slower speed. A slightly faster speed with a narrower implement is more beneficial for the soil structure in below the top layer as it shatters more, and by extrapolation, better aeriation occurs, which is after all, one of the main aims of carrying out this particular operation.
Thank you, James. My grandfather was a farmer in northern Ohio, specifically Northwestern, Ohio, so I’m very interested in these kinds of concepts, but not extremely familiar so I appreciate the education. Happy holidays!
The 9 shank 915 in this video gives the 9620R a work out running 18 inches deep in compacted soil at 6.5 mph. I have watched it completely stop the tractor in in its tracks on the headlands where the most traffic occurred at harvest time. John Deere produced 5, 7, 9, 11 and 13 shank 915 V-Rippers from 1982-2022. The 9 shank is 18.5 ft set at 25 inch spacings. The 11 and 13 shank are 22.5 ft with added extensions on the 18.5 ft tool bar. The 11 shank is set on 25 inches and the 13 shank is set on 22 inches. The farm in this video has an 11 shank 915 they run on a tracked tractor. The tracks pull the 11 shank smoother than a tractor with tires. The challenge is moving the 11 shank model down the road. A 17ft implement is a challenge to get down the road as it takes up most of the road and cars have to pull off the road for it to get by. At 22.5 ft you are reaching between mail boxes on both sides of the road. A wide implement is a challenge to move.
I couldn't visible see any added ballast on that tractor, which is good, because added ballast is a major contributor to soil compaction. Triples are comparable to tracks concerning soil compaction and traction, with considerable less initial cost, as well as maintenance and upkeep, especially if they are "roaded" a great deal. That farmer has his 9620R setup for very efficient operation. "Nothing Runs Like A Deere" 🦌 👍 🇺🇸
ua-cam.com/video/yUNyHQV1flM/v-deo.html A side by side comparison. When it comes to traction and compaction, John Deere's literature ranks triples, duals, two track and four track in order of ground contact area and efficiency. When both are correctly inflated, dual 800/70R38 tires have a greater ground contact area than 520/85R46 tires. Both combinations are the largest available from John Deere. Tracks are as rough as guts either on the road or in the paddock, two tracks are worse than four and their initial purchase price is significantly higher but they're way better than tires when in comes to fuel efficiency and reducing compaction.
@jamesbarbour8400 Do you know how many Tractors John Deere will be producing in Mexico? Well, I do, ZERO!! Do you know how many Combines John Deere will be producing in Mexico? Well, I do, ZERO!! "Nothing Runs Like A Deere" 🦌 👍 🇺🇸
@@Hinesfarm-Indiana that must be a retro fit, since ACs usually fitted their own engines ? Bit weak by at least some accounts and the transmissions can be a bit temperamental but I really like the styling of them - they tried the futuristic look from a 70s perspective and did good, I'd say.
Love big tractor power

yes love that old iron power, simple, few electronics and muscle. Tiger is true blue!
Make a five second video of it
Deep tillage videos in the fall are some of my favorites. Thanks Jason 👍🏻 😊
Always love seeing a ripper in action
Looking like a boss with those triples 👍👍👍
Great video. Greetings from Dundalk, Ireland
Hello. Thank you for watching in Ireland.
Such a beautiful and tranquil place
Thanks for the information on the machines 😊
Excellent 🎉
Big girl was digging in hard in a couple spots
You can hear it pull good 👍
This is a game-changer for large-scale farming
I saw where you became the most watched ag UA-cam channel.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
That’s awesome, congrats Jason 👍👍
Good video.
Nice !
Great tillage tractor.
Awesome Video!
Thank you Sebastian.
Nice video jason, its a beast!!
Thank you Jeremy.
That is a really mean looking setup! Love the triples 👍
In my observation triples run much smoother and help eliminate wheel hop that you see with duals on deep tillage.
The greens a little dark to be the perfect color but it sure wears those steel tanks and triples well. Wholesome vid.
Yeah, you know the ground is hard and tillage is deep when you stall down 780 hp and 12 tires

Awesome, looks great with the triples on.
👍👍👍
I'm sure the local farmers will know what works best...
For the most part high horse power in WKY are wheels are set up on triples. You rarely see metric duals.
Looks like they need to let some air out of those tires on the tractor.
Commins is a better Engine then John Deere
This is about as good as it gets for me. A 4WD on triples pulling a ripper.👍👍👍👍👍
Triples are a nice option. The tractor rides smoothly and pull well.
Seems like a lot of horse to be pulling 8 shanks. Can it pull 12 or 16?
It probably could, but at a slower speed. A slightly faster speed with a narrower implement is more beneficial for the soil structure in below the top layer as it shatters more, and by extrapolation, better aeriation occurs, which is after all, one of the main aims of carrying out this particular operation.

I hope that John Deere don't over price there self;
Too late - they've been doing that for years !
It is surprising how much machinery costs have increased across the board in the past decade.
I pull a john deere 900 9 shank v ripper with an 8640 does great but def not at the speed of the tractor in this video
Very cool tillage team. If I recall the 900 did not have spring resets?
I’m surprised to hear it’s gotta Cummins motor. Why not a Deere motor?
Coz Cummins rock !
John deere didn't have suitable engine at the time.
@@peterfalconer-h3k ok 👍
@@jamesbarbour8400 yeah we have a Cummins 8.3 in our Allis 8070.
