Guys, I am 57 years old, our family owns a grain elevator in Missouri... I am 3rd generation. I lost my dad when he was 59 years old... we were always close, but never got to "team up" on projects the way you folks do. He was the brains behind the operation, I was the fix it guy. He died in Oct of 1996. Scott, to watch you and your dad team up on this project, and to truly enjoy your time together doing it, just makes my heart swell up... I can not put into words what I am feeling right now! After all these years, I still miss him, I love him, and I thank him for being the example of a man that he was. Your family is just one fine example of what God intended the family unit should look like. Thank you... for sharing your stories with all of us. For me, it means so very much! God Bless you guys!
@@WelkerFarms He really was a great man, a helicopter pilot in the navy, came home to work with his family, and was a leader in the community where his faith in God was visible to everyone who knew him. You folks have a wonderful thing going on there... cherish every second of time that you have together.
It's great to see you still have time to play with the children when you are busy preparing for cultivation. All the very Best to all of you from the UK
My favorite part of all you videos is the fun you all have working together. You can really tell they love each other, if they don’t how could they put up with all the “dad” jokes. Thanks Welker’s for making my life a little happier.
I needed this comment. After my Dad got very sick with double pneumonia he wasn't the same. I decided I have to be here to take care of my parents but my now ex wife didn't agree. So I'm here now taking care of my parents and my dad is one stubborn son of à gun . The reason why I said I need your comment is because sometimes I get frustrated with them and I know I shouldn't. So thank you sir. And I'm sorry you lost your father. 🙏🙏 God bless you
@@roadhammer2380 my dad isn't gone yet...but we had to move away from farming and his health is failing...so I know the pain of that..just remember the love you shared. Seeing the Welkers work with their dad brings me to tears sometimes
Are the fan motors on your air seeder piston or gear motors. If they are piston you should put a filter on the high pressure side . I put 2 seperate gear pumps on my 976 last spring and my engineer said if you dont, the piston motor on the fan will wear out in a couple of years if not he guaranteed it would cause them to fail. I put a pump for each fan. On another topic it is sure nice to see 3 generations all working together. Im 60 years old and my Dad passed away in jan this year. He was 91 ran a combine up untill 2 years ago. He came out every day that we were working and was eager to run for parts or what ever he could do to help. He also drove around untill 3 days before he passed away. My grandson is the 6th generation. Keep the good videos coming.
love how you guys are a hands on farm, if its broke, YOU tear it apart and fix it. A lot of UA-cam farmers on here send everything back to dealer to get fixed or just lease a new tractor or implement, but not everyone can afford to do that . great to see your skills at work. good job!
Love all the knowledge you guys have picked about the Big Bud tractors over the years you have to keep these beautiful 50 year tractors running so great?
Watching your videos brings back memories of my dad and I working together under our big shop under the shade tree Loosing bolts and nuts and cotter keys. Oh yes. The heat and cooling of the earth. Memories
Great video! Love the family working together!! Just a tip. Put some grease/never seize on the shaft of the hydraulic pump before you put it into the PTO. That’s an “open” area since it has a weep hole in the bottom. Heats up with use then cools off at night sucking moisture in. Can rust as the shaft/coupler wear.
Amazing that these Buds were designed 45 years ago with components that are still in use today so that you can expand the capabilities to increase your productivity. It will be interesting to see if today's tractors are so flexible (not like all of us will actually see it....).
To keep our batteries from freezing up we put solar chargers on them. We had the same issue with our air seeder. Not enough flow to do everything. We put a flow control valve before the fan and it fixed it.
Is funny how you can tell the groups who have been doing youtube a while. Clearing things up on what you're doing to keep the people's comments low with all the corrective ways to do something or why'd you the do it like that😂Thank you for sharing & God Bless
Great work on the bud guys. You never fail to impress. Nice to see taking the kids go for a spin. Anymore, kids today are raised in a bubble. Drives me nuts. Many years ago we use to load about 8 of my classmates into 1 of those old pickup bed liners and take them for a spin in the field. Hours of fun trying to dump them all out. Dad would just shake his head and laugh. We had about a 400 foot hill at about 35 degrees. That bed liner would scream down that hill. Even dad got in on that action. Lol
I laugh any time I see a Cummins conversion. I installed a 93 12 valve in a Ford back in the winter of 99. The only part that was available was the transmission adapter. Everything else was fabricated in our shop. Another thing is we have been running a 1979 IH 4300 with a KTA 525 since 1985. So I know the engine from the inside out. The only tractor I have operated with old school horse power. Was a D7 Cat with a 3406 that we installed. It was the best tractor I every opertated. I am down here in Oregon where the fields are steep. And you guys should have met Bob. Every hydraulic conversion he ever did included valves on the hydraulic tank. So if you had a leak or needed some kind of repair you would not lose my hydraulic oil.
🔥right on guyzz.. my fav videos is this, updates and wrenching on the buds. These tractors deserve it, will last another generation of farming 🔥👊🔥🏍🔨⚙️🚜Bob you rock man, your one liners are the best.
Legarms, you should have tied a rope to the hose before you pulled the hose out. It would help to get the new hose back in. But looks like you got it back in without to many issues. Here is a pat on the back, for a job well done.
Instead of an additional pump you can use a priority valve that allows a fixed flow rate to one circuit and the rest to a 2nd. It is a nice inexpensive fix. I used this method on a skidsteer with a single aux circuit to power a core drill and a water pump. I sent a fix rate to the pump and the rest to the main drill (rotation and down force).
for smaller systems that would be fine but in this case they will get some overhead capability for further upgrades and use. Even the biggest tractors available today are pretty much on the edge of being able to supply enough for the current air seeders, and they dont even have sectional lift or sectional downpressure capabilities yet for the tool bars.
That's what I get for commenting before the I watch the entire thing. I noticed that the previous design used a priority valve/flow diverter. Evidently the one pump did not have enough flow to run both circuits.
Thanks for another great video Welkers. It was interesting and enjoyable. Wow. Scott you have done a great job with that extra hydraulic pump addition to the transmission. You had Bob helping for that extra set of hands. I must admit it was a little more complicated than I first thought. You had to do quite a bit to get it all together and operating. Wow. Great job and now you should have the hydraulic system you want for raising and lowering equipment you have hooked into the big bud. Assume you will demonstrate how it works in the next video since this one timed out. Nice work Welkers!!!! Was an interesting setup. Thanks for sharing. You all take care and be safe. God watch over you all. Prayers for moisture this spring. The Iowa farm boy. Steve.
Yeah, it need to be done before seeding the peas. It"s almost time isn"t it? Not early this year. All still white from snow. A long winter, or not? The kids like it to run behind the defender. Love to see them enjoy their time. So much time dad wont have with building the house and prepair for the seeding. Well, wish you blessings. See yah!
Bob, Scott had you running a lot of those dad jokes, you held up though, that was pretty funny. I don't know if you have a tractor supply, or similar type store close to you, but what work's really well for oily spills, are pig mats, they are super absorbent, and make clean up easy. They work well for taking apart motors and transmissions without the mess. G-d bless.
On trucks there is a support bracket that goes from the back of the pump up to the back of Trans so the pto doesn't have to support all the weight of the pump Some thing to think about I have seen the pto Crack because the bracket was not used
Good job guys!! I keep an assortment of JIC & NPT caps and plugs on hand to put on hoses and fittings to keep them clean and not make a mess in the floor.
Thank you the real American people I'm so glad you people are around to remind me what it was like growing up in this eastern part of the United States new people are great Refresher in living used to be a lot of people like you around here but they're all gone nobody cares about nobody around here I'm 73 grow up in Paterson area New Jersey and that was the headquarters of all the manufacturing things and people always had that happy way about him and helping people God bless you people don't ever stop what you're doing great family Great America see you God bless
I wish I was able to do some hydraulic work on my tractor like you! I'm inspired to add a rear SVC to mine now. How hard can that be? What could possibly go wrong? Scott and dad working hard and Nick's out playing with the kids! Go figure.
I was always told when you weld on a piece of equipment with a computer you have to disconnect the computer before welding. Is this true I’ve never seen you guys disconnect anything when you meg or stick weld on big bud by the way, you guys have great Contant, and very talented
We've been taught that too and most all our equipment have power disconnects. So we always make sure to turn them off before we weld, just doesn't make it on camera.
Did you think about going to an axial-piston PFC pump with power beyond? And just put electro-hydraulic valve control block on the air seeder? It's how John Deere planters work for years, eliminates points of failure with multiple pumps and lines and flow control valves. All you need going to the planter is pressure line, return line, case drain for hydraulic motors, compensation line to stroke the pump.
No matter how many batteries you have hooked up together there only as good as the worst one, remove the bad battery and the good ones will preform better.
No they're not, no battery survives in these conditions, no one wants to see their batteries getting junked after 2 years Iv been offered batteries to test but it's been under strict conditions not to share any results publicly good or bad and you have to pay tp send it back to the company when it fails I'll always take free batteries, no idea if they did anything with my results
No the millennial farmer is that guy. He literally has brand new cables batteries and a reduction gear starter in one of his KW with a battery cut off switch and within a week brand new batteries disconnected from everything possible run dead.
So stupid question.....why not have electrohydraulic remotes with flow control on the rear just so you can eliminate the amount of hoses going to the rear of the 525? Idk if doing something like that is possible or not. Kinda like the style of remotes on these new steigers.
you guys need to get a set of the plastic inserts you stick into the open lines to keep them from leaking or debris getting in. Cheap mess minimization.
I see two semi's with the engines pulled. I do recall the brown Pete had frame issues not making it road worthy. Did you all find a donor truck so swap all the good parts into making another good truck?
Is that a muncie pto? It sounds like a why not do it scenario to me with haveing the two driven off either end of the engine, and haveing a truck trans that supports a pto 👌🏻💯👍🏻
I see that you are installing a Muncie 8 bolt PTO that the pump bolt direct to. I have install a few of these . You only need to install a .020 gasket to space the correct spacing. I purchase these PTO direct from MUNCIE products Muncie,IN The company that I work for built and installed equipment on Tank Trucks that deliver fuel oil, gasoline and LPG for home and farms.
Hi Guy's Instead of the custom made valve-body you have ordered to control the fan-speed. You could use a Danfoss PVG 32 valve, it is the Lego off the hydraulic world, it can electronic adjusted by a potentionsmeter (voltage controlled) or a simple on/off switch in cabine of the tractor. The PVG system is simple system and easy to maintain and be build in some sweet units.
I know you think the shifter knob is spinning but it’s like a firework butterfly and just spins up in the sky. The flying Fummings will be quite unique.

Scott and Bob, you should be super proud of what you've done here. Epic result.
Love Scott "pumping his dad for puns. Oils well that ends well. Riding the hood. Good to see the kids having fun too.
I love Scott's giggle when he is reading the manual for the right number.
Gotta love it when Bob and LegArms is working together to get things done. Awesome video guys. 🚜🚜🚜
I really appreciated leg arms explaining why they are upgrading the hydraulics
Pump the oil through a filter while transferring the oil 💡

Tip for putting hydraulic hoses together use dawn dish soap works way better than wd-40
In 1978 all you needed was 2 remotes on most equipment. One to unfold the wings and one to lift it and let it down.
Between cutting that large hose and pumping that oil, I'd say the arm is in pretty good shape👍.
There is nothing you guys can't get done that's awesome love the content

When I installed the pto on my semi I think I had to use 1 thick and one thin to get i think it was 6-10 thousands and I had that same pto and pump.

8:00 use a shop vac to hold the oil in the tank. Works like charm. Edit.... might not work with a big access hole opened up....
Hey Scott! Coming from an Old Farmall guy I really like your vintage international hat
Now we now where the Cat motor is going. Both Pete’s sitting next to the small Bud with power plants stripped out.
We always had to feed the concrete chickens on the floor when working with hydraulic or engine oil every day at work.
If you make sure your pipe wrench makes 3 points of contact, you will keep your pipe round.
Really love that logo on your cap
hey what's with the two semi trucks with no engines
What are the jacks on the inside of the frame used for? 22:51
I'm a software developer, and I get it.
I also understand acronyms...
"PTO take off" is silly, but not as silly as "power PTO take off" would be.
Missing the point.......
The power from the big bud is being "taken off" to the new PTO " power take off" to the pump. Semantics do it every time.
ABSOLUTELY----> OUTSTANDING!!!!!!!!!!. 🙂
IT SAYS IM ALREADY SUBSCRIBED!. AND IVE ACTUALLY BEEN SUBSCRIBED FOR QUITE A FEW YEARS NOW. I HOPE IM STILL SUBSCRIBED. 😲
Wonder what happened to the red skid loader?

Can you add a PTO to a Big Bud tractor??
No matter how many batteries you have hooked up together there only as good as the worst one, remove the bad battery and the good ones will preform better.
Marketing department of a battery manufacturer is missing an opportunity to sponsor this channel.
No they're not, no battery survives in these conditions, no one wants to see their batteries getting junked after 2 years
Iv been offered batteries to test but it's been under strict conditions not to share any results publicly good or bad and you have to pay tp send it back to the company when it fails
I'll always take free batteries, no idea if they did anything with my results
No the millennial farmer is that guy. He literally has brand new cables batteries and a reduction gear starter in one of his KW with a battery cut off switch and within a week brand new batteries disconnected from everything possible run dead.

Not true. Its not one size fits all. Have to figure out the shims on each of them
Just started watching the video and what has happened to the 2 semi parked up with no front end or engines in them?
Hi Guy's
Instead of the custom made valve-body you have ordered to control the fan-speed. You could use a Danfoss PVG 32 valve, it is the Lego off the hydraulic world, it can electronic adjusted by a potentionsmeter (voltage controlled) or a simple on/off switch in cabine of the tractor. The PVG system is simple system and easy to maintain and be build in some sweet units.
Both trucks might be missing something?😮
Welkers are so smart and skilled...all I can do is watch with awe. I could never figure all this out. Good work fellas!
Sometimes a good trick to get hoses on fittings is to boil Water and dip the Rubber hose in it. It makes the Rubber Softer☝️
.006 to .120? Basically does it touch the other gear and not bind? 👌
I know you think the shifter knob is spinning but it’s like a firework butterfly and just spins up in the sky. The flying Fummings will be quite unique.
What’s going on with the the Red & Blue Peterbilts???? Missing there motors
How do you heat the shop?
