Great video, your other harrow is called a spring tooth , great if you don't have alot of trash in your fields, the grass collects on them and you may have to clear the spring shanks from time to time, but they work great if you have a garden that you work alot . We had a wood drag on ours and us kids would ride the drag and pick rocks and put them on the drag and unload them when we were finished .
I’m hoping to have my corn ground clean enough to use it. I’m going to try a cover crop this year so I’ll have to start early getting it worked in and time enough to rot.
The first maintenance I learned to do on the farm was greasing the implements every spring. The one additional bit of maintenance my father did was to wire brush the discs. It really seemed to help keep the dirt from sticking. That was a beautiful song you played at the end of the video. God bless you and yours.
My new favorite disk Joey, the 122! Always liked those so much. My great grandfather had a ‘69 140 with a King disk like what you had before, plus a drag harrow exactly like yours. Thanks for sharing and God bless my friend and brother!
Very nice equipmeny you were able to get Joey. I angle the disc blades almost straight, run shallow and fast to cover turnips and rye. Need to dig/cut Daddy's old harrow out of the edge of the woods. Been many years since it was used.
Hi Joey , starting to have some nice weather. I can’t remember any one having a 300 in my neighborhood when I was growing up. Nice looking tractor . I remember using an old disk harrow. Come in from the field at lunch and greasing it up and again at the end of the day. I thought you would take those bearings off like we did back in the day, with out power tools. L O L . Thanks for sharing. Have a good weekend. 😎😎 👍
Nice disc Joey. It has never done anything. They are so much better than the old ones we have. Like I said I would like to find a spring tooth harrow like you have one of these days. Nothing short of a drag levels land any better than a spring tooth. Wonderful equipment and thanks for sharing the video.
That disk looks almost like showroom. My uncle had one very similar to that and I put right much time pulling it in the fields. All the best from Greensboro NC.
Good looking disc, Joey. I envy all of the attachments you have for the 140. I’m constantly keeping my eye out for a disc and 1 bottom plow. Neither is common here in west Alabama. Enjoyed the video 😊
Hey Joey! Good video and good job on cleaning up and greasing. Was that you singing at the end of the video? Always great to hear songs of worship! God Bless!
On that oil pressure the pressure relief spring in the pump is probably weak along with the bottom gasket leaking and a warped bottom cover. The spring and cover and gasket is still available new but I just stretched my spring out some and put it back. That was the problem the whole time was the spring
That harrow is pretty sweet! Need to do some greasing and probably change the hydraulic fluid on my super a before plow day. Do you have a plow for the 300 yet?
I have a Massey Ferguson 135 that I am beginning to do some restoration on. I have plenty of wrenches in the smaller range. However I need some larger sizes. What are the “larger”size wrenches you see most needed while working on your tractors?
Man, I had one just like it except it had the add on furrow filler disks on the end. Kick myself in the butt all the time for selling it. Hard to find them in good shape anymore.
Joey I hope you show working on the bush hog . I have an old one that is shaking like a leaf on a tree in a hundred mile an hour wind . I was using it and I hit a small three and it went crazy. I have a Mahindra four wheel drive tractor and it was shaking it .
Those outer grooves in the bearing cups are supposed to have felt/rope/rag dirt barriers in them to at least slow debris getting in the greasy bearing area. In any event, cleaned out, new grease, new nipples to add grease ensures it will last a lot longer now.
Im pretty sure it’s the oil pump to block seal losing pressure. I really need to take it off and sand it on glass top and put a new gasket on it. We put new main and rod bearings in it over the winter. Yes I’m kicking myself for not doing it then. lol .

That disc is in good shape! Appreciate the video, I love a good plow day. 😊
Your very welcome and your welcome to come to plow day.
@@Jtwes I would love to we'll see what the future holds. Appreciate the invite, 😊.

Thanks Kevin . That was my good friend Blake.
That looks great!
Thanks Brian
Looks a great little implement. Does a good job at working the soil over. Thanks for the video. All the best 🇬🇧.
Great video. Thanks for sharing, I learned some, refreshed my memories of maintenance and mostly enjoyed the relaxing and friendly environment. 🇺🇸
Thanks Larry.

Hey Lamont
It would be neat to get it out and use it a little.
Those cordless impacts sure make life a lot easier….. purchased a kneeling/sitting seat from Lowe’s and this ole man loves it 😉
I need one for sure. Knees are aching.

Thanks Bart. Did you see were I commented that were coming up there weekend of the 20th

It is. Thanks Gurney.

Hey Albert I hope and Pray you able to find one.
Hey Joey! Good video and good job on cleaning up and greasing. Was that you singing at the end of the video? Always great to hear songs of worship! God Bless!
That was my buddy Blake. He plays the piano at church.

I’m looking to try that this fall.
That harrow is pretty sweet! Need to do some greasing and probably change the hydraulic fluid on my super a before plow day. Do you have a plow for the 300 yet?
Not yet. I want to get the lift all squared away.
That 122 is a fine harrow and will run rings around your old one.
Thanks Mark
That is a nice disk. Would like to find one like it for my 130. Great video!
Thank You. I hope you do.
@@Jtwes when is your plow day occurring? I am interested in coming to it.
It’s October the 5th
Same thing when i did my disc harrow.
I hope to have my duel fast hitch all repaired by middle of next week.
@@Jtwes i know you are excited
Good find on that disc, it hasn’t been used much
Amen. It was a blessing from Stan
I’ve gat a drag and love it but I see you have a crumbling bar on it and that’s neet I’m going to have to make me one
He Dylan it works good.
Are there actual bearings in that housing or is housing the bearing?
You got it right Andrew the housing is the bearings and that’s why you have to keep them greased. It’s called spool bearings.
I have a Massey Ferguson 135 that I am beginning to do some restoration on. I have plenty of wrenches in the smaller range. However I need some larger sizes. What are the “larger”size wrenches you see most needed while working on your tractors?
I would say from a 1 1/4 down you should be fine. I like a massy 135 nice tractor
@@Jtwes thanks Joey. I’ve seen Evan at Country View Acres use some pretty big sockets here lately working on his disk.
You can get into some bigger sockets working on disk. Not to say there want be a big one on the 135 but I would bet 90% will be 15/16 and smaller.
Man, I had one just like it except it had the add on furrow filler disks on the end. Kick myself in the butt all the time for selling it. Hard to find them in good shape anymore.
Yes indeed. I needle in a hay stack.
Joey I hope you show working on the bush hog . I have an old one that is shaking like a leaf on a tree in a hundred mile an hour wind . I was using it and I hit a small three and it went crazy. I have a Mahindra four wheel drive tractor and it was shaking it .
Get a look under the deck, likely only a single blade left or bent so if a swing blade it's stuck and won't turn out like it should.
Hey Bart
I didn’t get a lot of footage but it’s smoother now.
Spring time harrow
Those outer grooves in the bearing cups are supposed to have felt/rope/rag dirt barriers in them to at least slow debris getting in the greasy bearing area. In any event, cleaned out, new grease, new nipples to add grease ensures it will last a lot longer now.
I didn’t see any evidence of that. I feel like if there ever was some from the factory that one would have had them. lol
Another good one! Is that you singing at the end of the video? My wife had stated during the last Monday night live she wanted to hear you sing more!
No it was Blake. We do sing some together.
Are them Babbitt bearings on there
No there cast steel.
If your oil pressure is dropping when it warms up, it usually means your main bearings are going bad.
Im pretty sure it’s the oil pump to block seal losing pressure. I really need to take it off and sand it on glass top and put a new gasket on it. We put new main and rod bearings in it over the winter. Yes I’m kicking myself for not doing it then. lol .
@@Jtwes now that you mention it, I remember that episode! Looking forward to watching the repair.
That should be a anode it keeps it from rusting so bad they use them in boats a lot
Interesting
