    So that is 20 000 kg for us in the old world.
    What you need is the Ferguson system, that transfers weight onto the drive wheels.
    These John Deeres are going back to the pre war era with heavy tractors pulling things around by the draw bar.

    The 9410 is at 126.48 lbs per 1 tractor HP, the 9360 is at 119.44 lbs/HP, the 9560 is coming in at 97.67 lbs/HP, 8360R is 94.44 lbs/HP at 360, 8220 is 124 lbs/HP at 225 HP, 8320 is 100lbs/HP at 250. The 9620 is at 99lbs/HP and if you got in the 70,000 lbs range for the 9620R, you would be at 112lbs/HP to where you said you needed to be. Great video as usual!

  • @arlodewald5378
    @arlodewald5378 Місяць тому +4

    Back in the late seventy's I worked for Steiger tractor manufacturer . On the biggest tractor at that time was the Steiger Panther lll at four hundred and fifty horse power . With all eight tires filled three quarters full and two hundred and seventy gallons of fuel on most types of soil . Than pulling the most appropriate pieces of equipment for that amount of horse power .
    There would still be choose to a thirty second of an inch slippage . Witch is a lot of tire wear .
    At that time the widest tires were thirty six inches wide .
    I understand the reason for so much weight .

  • @carl2755
    @carl2755 Місяць тому +1

    cast weights are definitely the better choice vs liquid, especially with radial tires. What I have read is that liquid prevents the tire from flexing and essentially makes it like a bias tire resulting in more compaction.

  • @royl9858

    I think if you angle sniped every other lug on the edge where the duals are clocked together to where they alternate right and left it would increase cooling capacity quite a bit!!!!😄😄😄

Horsepower is one of those things that it's better to be looking at than looking for. Best of luck with the spring tillage and planting, hope you have better weather than we've had in the U.K been non stop rain for months.

  • @farmboy5622
    @farmboy5622 Місяць тому +1

    The LSW tires have several advantages over tracks. 1st - you save fuel. It takes more engine HP to turn tracks than it does tires. 2nd - It costs less to initially buy tires over tracks and its components. It costs less to replace tires over tracks and its components. 3rd - LSW tires offer a smoother ride than tracks on the road and in the field. Faster times means money saved. Making money is the name of the game. 4th - In my opinion, I think LSW tires can go through more muddy conditions than tracks. 5th - Have you seen some the UA-cam videos of farmers with tracks, and what it takes to clean out the mud and junk from the tracks and its components? A lot of cleanup time with tracks. And then,.....if you do a lot of road travel with tracks, you have to sprinkle some kind of talc to keep the tracks running cooler.
