Congratulations on the new baby sheep it's my first time watching your UA-cam channel and I am a big fan of all farmers it's my dream to stop living the city life and relax in the country side drinking some Canada dry pop
Thank you! We are just sharing our story starting our farm to help others who may want to start their own farm too. It's pretty relaxing and also hectic at times but it beats living in town😁 Thanks for watching and I hope you find the channel enjoyable!
Thank you for being an American worth fighting for. I hope you are enjoying the channel, if you haven't already please check out the videos we have posted over the past four months. We also post new videos every Wednesday and Saturday.
Thank you for your service! I love to see the Allis Chalmers still being used. They are still my favorite brand. I grew up on a chicken farm and we did row crop corn and soy beans, through the years we have run models C,CA,WD,WD-45, all of the D series except D 21, Gleaner F and K, I still use a 160 w/460 loader and a 5050. Keep the Orange alive. May GOD bless you in your service and farm!
Thank you for being an American worth fighting for. Allis is our favorite too. Thank you for checking us out, we have videos from the past three months as well if you haven't seen them yet and also new videos every Wednesday and Saturday! God bless you too!
I have a 1940 Allis Chalmers B that I am restoring to working better. I can’t wait to get the one bottom plow onto the tractor and use it this fall. I also have a sickle bar hay mower
That is so inspiring to hear that others keep these tractors around too. My cousin just had our grandpa's WD rebuilt. It still needs paint but otherwise she is ready to run
I love them too as you can see it's the only tractors we use. We are in love with that flag as well! Hope you are enjoying the channel and subscribe to make sure you don't miss anything. Also when you have time check out our older videos too.
I hope you are enjoying the channel if you haven't already please check out the videos we have posted over the past four months. We also post new videos every Wednesday and Saturday.
First off , Thank you for your service ! And Zach sent me ,but love everything your doing . How come you can't get farm fuel delivered to the farm ? My dad worked for AC in La porte,IN back in the 50's still a few in my area .
Thank you for being an American worth fighting for, and Zach is an awesome guy. We can get fuel delivered but since we only keep 250 gallons at our farm at a time it costs us more to have it delivered. Secondly it is cheaper by about 30 cents per gallon for normal diesel compared to red dye farm diesel to buy it just outside of ft wood. That allows me to put it in my truck that too.
Sir nice video. Just remember regardless of what others say. You work with what you like and what you can afford. If you’re a fixer and can keep things running, all the more power and money to you. Stay safe Gods speed to you and your family.
Thank you, I hope you are enjoying the channel and the content keeps you coming back. We have several videos posted previously and new ones every Wednesday and Saturday. God bless you too
I hope you checked out some previous videos on the channel. That's all we run on our farm is Allis. Subscribe as well to see future videos. The 5020 is used nearly every day in the winter. The 7045 does all the hay mowing and baling.
They aren't going where. Watch them whenever you have time. The barn went very well, and we even have some friends pitch in at times. I will never have a new tractor since Allis doesn't make any but I would love to have an 8000 series
I wanted to farm with my Dad when I graduated High School in 84, Farm economy was horrible and a land deal went south on me with a neighbor so I enlisted. I live about 90 miles from Zach (MF) and when I retired I got a gig being a Veterans Service Officer (County employee who does claims for Vet's with the VA) Gimme a shout when you are ready to retire I will try to hook you up with all the VA Benefits you deserve! We are in a big Ag community and I take Vacation time to do field work for local guys who need help. You can take the boy off the farm, but you cant take the farm outta the boy. God speed call me with anything VA Related 320 360 2589Lee
The 80's were hard for farmers for sure. I appreciate the offer and in 6 years when I retire I will give you a call! Thank you for checking us out too!
Thanks for being an American worth fighting for. I am glad you are enjoying the channel, make sure you check out all the videos we have posted and we also post new videos every Wednesday and Saturday. If you have any tips that will make my tasks easier please let us know.
D17 is a good tractor for sure! I grew up with a wd45 that my grandpa had. I really do love the power shift in the 7045 though. Keep watching and you will see the 7045 at work cutting hay, raking, baling, and brush hogging on our channel.
Love the Allis brand! Thank you for checking us out, we have videos from the past three months as well if you haven't seen them yet and also new videos every Wednesday and Saturday!
Sounds like a nice family farm to live and work on. Glad you enjoyed the video. Check out the other videos we have on the channel too. We post two new videos weekly
So glad to see a veteran and family man doing what they love. I would love to be able to start a hay farm but right now it’s not in the cards for my family and myself. Thank you for your service and please keep doing what you love. James
Thank you for being an American worth fighting for. I am blessed to say the least but that is what this channel is about is showing others it is possible to start your own farm still in this day and age. Hope you are enjoying our channel and I hope the content keeps you coming back. We have about 3 months worth of videos posted already and new ones post every Wednesday and Saturday. Thank you again!
Hope you've got engine block heaters Parking them in that non insulated building.Over the years we had a D17D, 175D 5050D and a 6080 D. Like all manufacturers AC made some good ones and some they wish they had not built especially in their final years of operation when it seemed that they just didn't care anymore. Nice video,
The 7000 and 8000 series were their best ones I feel. The last two years of operation before duetz bought them out and was a downward spiral in my opinion. We do have a block heater.
@Freedom Farms I was a 96R from 02-06. I spent a year in Korea and 2.5 at Ft. Irwin, CA.I grew up on a farm by STL. We had cattle and hogs and an A/C 220 and a D-19. I also own my own business. Keep up the great work.
That's awesome! I'd get out too if those were the first two duty stations I had hahahaha. 220 and a d19 are pretty nice tractors! Thanks for the kinds words. I hope you are enjoying the channel if you haven't already please check out the videos we have posted over the past four months. We also post new videos every Wednesday and Saturday.
My grandfather had an Allis 7000 series on his farm, drove it quite a bit, pretty good tractor. It was a shame Allis was bought out by Deutz then by AGCO. Their equipment is pretty stout.
Thats awesome, we actually only have the 1360 because of how cheap we bought it for but that makes me feel good about how long I'll be able to use it. Thank you for checking out our channel and I hope you enjoy the content and stick around for our journey ahead.
Should last you a long time. By the time we sold ours it was still working but the turtles were so thin you could see threw them in spots. I enjoyed your channel. Good luck to you and your family. I dairy farm with my family in Iowa. So I can relate a lot to your channel. Hopefully things turn around soon or I know we'll no longer be dairy farmers. It's tough sledding for anything in ag right now
Well I sure hope you have a spare pair of tidy whities on hand. Thanks for checking out our channel. I hope you are enjoying the channel if you haven't already please check out the videos we have posted over the past four months. We also post new videos every Wednesday and Saturday.
We love ours. Only thing I would change about my Allus is having glow plugs. She's a little bit hard to start when it's cold out but once you get her started she's good to go. Thank you for subscribing and I hope you enjoy the channel. If you have ideas or anything special you want to see on our farm channel please let us know.
On the AC 5020, if tracking hours is more of a concern than actually having a tachometer, I'd recommend just a run of the mill hour meter and oil pressure switch ... probably put one together for less than $50.
That will work! I didn't even think about that. I could actually run one off ignition source so it only counts hours when the ignition is on! Thank you for the idea!
@@FreedomFarmsMo 10-4 that'll work too. Couple of reasons why I mentioned the oil pressure switch is that in case the key gets left on or if the 5020 has a "pull kill" and the key switch gets turned off while using it, but the tractor is still running.
seen your hydraulic multiplier you have on your 7045, I am looking to buy some for my Allis chalmers 7040, and 7030, if you don’t mind sharing what brand yours are!? Thank you
Hey Derek, this is the one we used and absolutely love it. It is a summit hydraulics multiplier and made here in the USA. We bought it off Amazon. Summit Hydraulics Hydraulic Multiplier Kit, 3 Circuit Selector Valve Including Couplers and Switch Box Control www.amazon.com/dp/B075SKKHYV/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_A7Q0ZCQA7FVT2H5X8GGR
1st baler i ran was a gehl bale 1500. It burned in 2017. 1st baler fire I had and i panicked and seed of dumping bale I just unhooked tractor to get it away from fire
I would probably dump the baler too honestly. It's alot cheaper than a tractor. I like the gehl bale 1500 but jt doesn't make as nice of bales as a newer net wrap baler. However it does feed our animals through the winter😁
It may seem like a short time frame but the service manual says 250 hours or annually. At the end of the day 25 gallons of hydraulic fluid and 2 filters cost me roughly $200. That is substantially cheaper than a hydraulic pump which is $4500-6000 to rebuild plus the headache of not having the tractor when needed.
Deere has few parts made in the USA, there is a difference between made in the USA and assembled in the USA. Honestly now days very few are really made in the USA. However at the end of the day it is still whatever works for your farm. Thank you for checking us out and I hope you enjoy the content.
Wow that tractor can lift 6000 pounds. I’ll believe it when I see it. I really doubt that loader can lift that. If you change all your oil every 100 hours and filters and fuel filters, that seems a little extreme, but that tractor will last forever like that.
The tractor will lift that, You will see here in a month or so when we move our wood boiler with it as it weighs 4500 lbs without the 300 gallons of water it holds.
Tasty little devil's you mean 😁. Thank you for checking out the channel. I hope you enjoy our content we have several videos from the last 4 months and lost new videos every Wednesday and Saturday
@@FreedomFarmsMo I do! I have a horrible roaster story I'll share sometime, if interested. Keep the videos coming. Thanks for your service brother. Now drop and push em out till I'm tired.
I am a soldier, the farm will be my full time job when I retire from the Army in 5 more years. My wife is a teachers assistant and currently going to school fulltime to get her degree to be a teacher. So in short yes we both have full time jobs in order to start and get our farm going.

The NTC was fun, I was OPFOR. I have already subscribed. I love the content.
NTC fun? We have different definitions of fun 🤣😂
Freedom Farms if you run with OPFOR it is fun, 2 nights out one night back. It wasn’t fun for BLUEFOR.
I have always been the bluefor side of the house. I am sure opfor was fun
I am from Canada
Well hello there neighbors to the north
My grandfather had an Allis 7000 series on his farm, drove it quite a bit, pretty good tractor. It was a shame Allis was bought out by Deutz then by AGCO. Their equipment is pretty stout.
It sure was, the 80's were hard on equipment manufacturers.
We had a 1470 mower. I think that thing cut around the world 3x. Good mowers

My wife and I do custom hay with my in-laws and your AC is almost (our biggest is a JD 4455) bigger than everything we use. 😂😂😂😂.
It is 145 pto hp which is overkill for our 10' Moco, 15' Batwing, and baler for sure 😁
I've run tractors all my life and I'd shit my pants of any tractor with 2 inch rams could lift 6000lbs lol great video anyway haha

I’ve got the same exact AC tractor
I love mine!
Nice to find another Allis channel, 7045 was a great tractor
We love ours. Only thing I would change about my Allus is having glow plugs. She's a little bit hard to start when it's cold out but once you get her started she's good to go. Thank you for subscribing and I hope you enjoy the channel. If you have ideas or anything special you want to see on our farm channel please let us know.
Is yours a powershift or power director?
@@FreedomFarmsMo I've got 7020 & has block heater - use indoor/outdoor timer to kick on few hours b4 needing.
That is a good idea, we rarely need ours in the winter and sometimes can wait on the block heater but other times we have to just use ether
Brings back memories I grew up on a sheep farm that also had Allis tractors. My dad deliver tractors for Allis at our local dealership.
On the AC 5020, if tracking hours is more of a concern than actually having a tachometer, I'd recommend just a run of the mill hour meter and oil pressure switch ... probably put one together for less than $50.

I have never heard of anyone changing the hydraulic oil every 200 hours... why so often, is Fluid analysis says that's when it breaks down
It may seem like a short time frame but the service manual says 250 hours or annually. At the end of the day 25 gallons of hydraulic fluid and 2 filters cost me roughly $200. That is substantially cheaper than a hydraulic pump which is $4500-6000 to rebuild plus the headache of not having the tractor when needed.
so is Deere and milenial farmer recommended u

I have been saying that about Harley Davidson for years
Wow that tractor can lift 6000 pounds. I’ll believe it when I see it. I really doubt that loader can lift that. If you change all your oil every 100 hours and filters and fuel filters, that seems a little extreme, but that tractor will last forever like that.
Allis Chalmers loaders were legendary, if they said it would lift 6000# it probably lift 8000#
The tractor will lift that, You will see here in a month or so when we move our wood boiler with it as it weighs 4500 lbs without the 300 gallons of water it holds.
So you di at lost in the woods
DI is a marine term. In the army we are known as Drill Sergeants. Same thing just different terms is all.
