I bought a John Deere H from an old timer over the weekend. I asked him if he had something to use to get the tractor on my car trailer. He looked at me funny, hopped on, then did this. :D Learned something new!
@@vthegoose don’t get me wrong I’m mostly locked into both, but occasionally in tight spots it’s really nice to pivot hard, especially with row crop tires.
Thought that was something all us farm boys knew how to do?? I grew up on allis WD45 and a farmall super M that was one of the first things I learned and don’t ever drive off n a hole with the front end unless u want your arm broke lol!!! Nice lookin 720👍👍👍👍
That was smooth. But my neighbor died loading a tractor similar to that. Also we used to load my dad's 1949 John Deere B backwards on steep tilt bed trailer.
Like this is something new lol. We've been doing it that way 40 yrs...but it's a lot of times a prick doing it just to look badass . We say anybody who can afford that expensive trailer can afford a 3rd ramp.... I see them doing it at antique show and I always tell to them "pretty neat, now let's see you back it on" lol. You can see their thought process trying to work that out lol
That's exactly what I thought. All that money right there and too cheap for a 3rd ramp. The first thing I did was to have a longer ramp built and winch added. The tractor you need to load might not run.
@@jeffanderlik7695 : Well, perhaps not everybody is "loaded" like you are. Getting a 3rd ramp built is very expensive, not to mention fabricating & adding the components to attach the ramp to the trailer. Plus, if he doesn't load narrow front tractors often, it's just a waste of money. Additionally, a third ramp adds extra weight to the trailer, which may not necessarily be desirable, as it cuts down the GVWR of the trailer. Everybody's always got an answer about how things should be done, but rarely do they think things through before giving their two cents. I'm not saying that you're totally wrong, but you ain't right either.
Be very careful with tricycle tractors. They can tip over easily. My childhood friend, Ronnie Coleman died in 1963 while driving one. It has been more than 50 years and I remember like it was yesterday
Yep few younger kids and couple adults died dumping those tricycles over back in the 60s/70s in our farm town. Hated splitting them for clutches. But motor work was simple and easy for a 14 year old back in the day.
Get after it big boy! Drove a few 70's , back in the early 1970's when I was only 10 or 12 years old. Yes, they were still around! The 720's must be a 70 with a turbocharger! Thanks for the memories!
Unloading the first time is a little more interesting. With a beavertail ramp I have used a short piece of cross tie, 18 in or so and eased the tractor off to the crosstie then to the ground when unloading.
Nice work!! I saw this pop-up as a recommendation and I just knew it was going to be some idiot popping a wheelie or something. 🤣 You can't load it any better than that right there. 👍
I am pretty sure that I would have been able to figure that out on my own if I needed to. I might not have done it quite as smoothly as that, but it would have gotten loaded anyways.
I'd say he's done that a time or two. I seen an old picture of a truck load of "tricycle wheeled tractors. 4 of them on a 35 or 40 ft flatbed. 1st one was backed on and placed cockeyed 2nx was pulled on and parked cockeyed 3rd backed on 4th pulled on. The noses were parked side by side.
Ive been doing that a fair bit with my 520 on my new trl(89) since i built a wood center ramp but its broke i started prepping to build a center ramp but im really thinking building onto the existing ramps each side going to center of trl. Also i had bad wheel bearings and my friend had a 3010 pedestal for 100 i got just needed tore down and repacked with grease since its been laying outside for multiple years. With 520 rims im about 5 inches center vs 2 inches center spacing. I need new rims so im toying with maybe 3010 rims with fatter tires since i run a loader.
It went through my mind at the beginning but very quickly got rid of the thought as it wouldn't work. I think that front tires are still too small for the quite big step up
@@dangerrangerlstc If your stacking two narrow fronts side by side I would think you would need center ramps for the front tractor, which traditionally you back on.
@@kallenbridges8471 : Well, I wouldn't say easy... The narrower the rear wheel width is, the easier it would be to load in reverse without a center ramp. The wider the rear wheel width is, the more difficult and dangerous it becomes while loading in reverse. The reason for this is because you cannot depart from the ramps at an angle very much at all, whilst leaving them & approaching the trailer's deck.
It just goes to show, people who know how to do something do it right. And here again, I learned something new today. Thanks!
Thought he was gonna wheelie it, honestly. Not disappointed tho 😄
I was gonna say that! LoL
Me too...🤣🤣🤣... Still ingenious technique, tho...
I clicked to see a wheelie.
Same here.
I thought the front wheel would get stuck and fall off
This just answered a question that I didn't know i needed answered....
Amazing how many of life's questions you never knew you needed to know just randomly show up in your feed...
Same
Smart
So true
I know how else you do it you us a home made ramp
I bought a John Deere H from an old timer over the weekend. I asked him if he had something to use to get the tractor on my car trailer. He looked at me funny, hopped on, then did this. :D Learned something new!
Finally.......
now all I need is a narrow front tractor and a trailer big enough to carry one
I’m surprised how many people don’t realize left vs right brake on tractors. They’re pivotal
I’ve never seen my grandpa use them. Then again we don’t do things like this and they have 42-4640s so idk
@@vthegoose don’t get me wrong I’m mostly locked into both, but occasionally in tight spots it’s really nice to pivot hard, especially with row crop tires.
I split the brakes allot at work, 6215R's are tricky to fit into our old shed
@@paintham9430 I often do it when driving potatoes and it's muddy. I can with ease turn the tractor, when unloading, it's like fuc**** magic haha
Punny.
I'll be even more impressed to see him unload a narrow front John Deere 720 from a trailer.
If you play the video backward you can.
Ever see a magician remove a tablecloth from a set table? Same concept I believe. 🤔
@@mastocytoma1 lol, trailer better move really fast
I believe he did it without any problem whatsoever
It’s the same exact shit but in reverse
That was pretty damn slick. I’ve seen collectors carry a third ramp to load and unload but he made it look easy!
That’s the shortest but one of the most relevant videos I’ve ever seen!!
Hi
Seems obvious. But I probably wouldn't have ever figured that out.
You are correct. I'm a tractor owner (wide front), and I don't think I can honestly say I would have ever thought of this : (
Unloading it this way is even more fun. Better hope your brakes are working well.
@@Cragified you can just back off like you would any tractor, it will unload :D
Didn't expect it to be so easy. Smooth as glass.
Not his first rodeo.Pratice makes perfect
UA-cam 5 years after this was posted: “here watch this”
So all 5 year vids have expired? Works the same today as it did then. You do not have to type just cause you can.
Same here 😂😂
Did not disappoint
Literally my situation, and I don’t even watch tractor videos
Part 2 video coming in 2025..
Show off! And I mean that in the most positive way possible! Hell of a job, and you made it look easy
It’s 1 am, I don’t even own a tractor like this or a trailer idek why I’m here
You need to go to sleep look at your spelling
@@engineergaming4295 what did I spell wrong? If you think it’s “idek” that means I don’t even know
@@keirmunro7601 I meant grammar, “I don’t even a tractor”
@@engineergaming4295 ohhhhhh
I like how that tractor just idled itself up the ramps
Notice the little tap on the left wheel brake ... lines it up perfectly for the rear wheels. Simple
Thought that was something all us farm boys knew how to do?? I grew up on allis WD45 and a farmall super M that was one of the first things I learned and don’t ever drive off n a hole with the front end unless u want your arm broke lol!!! Nice lookin 720👍👍👍👍
If you asked me to load it, I never would have be able to; but seeing it done it makes perfect sense
That was smooth. But my neighbor died loading a tractor similar to that. Also we used to load my dad's 1949 John Deere B backwards on steep tilt bed trailer.
Those rim/tire package look good on that trailer
That was slicker than snot on a doorknob!

She sounds real sweet. We got a 520 had since new and still sounds that sweet and crisp.
We know a thing or two , because we’ve seen a thing or two . WE ARE FARMERS bambadumbadum
You forgot the bumpbump
Best comment of 2020!!
Brother I don't even own a tractor but I'm glad I saw this 😂
We always bought trailers with a third ramp or made a third ramp for them but I guess this is a cool trick.
The man knows his stuff.
Ah nice! Where there is a "wheel" there is a way......haha 😄 👍
Never seen this done before, someday its going to come in handy!
First you have to have one that runs good enough to get on the trailer
That helps😂
These will run for eternity you have never studied diesel mechanics
@@jakeambrose2711 I was a diesel mechanic for forty years its a John Deere not a International
Good man I love how it goes with it and it makes it easier for you lol I just did a good poo
Be very careful with tricycle tractors. They can tip over easily. My childhood friend, Ronnie Coleman died in 1963 while driving one. It has been more than 50 years and I remember like it was yesterday
Im a deputy in a rural county and have been to several deaths where these tractors tip over and crush the driver. And all were on uneven ground.
Took a farm safety course, all you have to do is hit a ground hog hole at 5mph it will tip! 3mph is ok only.
I have a friend who loads them backwards like this. Definitely takes some practice and talent
may he rest in peace.
tricycles are better than wide fronts
Simple but logical. Good driving skills.
Clean truck clean trailer clean tractor 👍👍👍👍
Yep few younger kids and couple adults died dumping those tricycles over back in the 60s/70s in our farm town. Hated splitting them for clutches. But motor work was simple and easy for a 14 year old back in the day.
Appears to be a 6.0 up there. Good choice of tractor and truck
I'm going to say I wasn't expecting that I thought he was just going to pop the clutch and jump the front tire
That was so cool I'd never thought of doing that
same
It seemed so obvious as soon as I read the title. I have no experience with any of this. Crazy how different we all are.
Get after it big boy! Drove a few 70's , back in the early 1970's when I was only 10 or 12 years old. Yes, they were still around! The 720's must be a 70 with a turbocharger! Thanks for the memories!
No turbo, just small increase in hp. and a few changes with parts.
That dude is a skilled operator
Wow I was just thinking about this the other day and randomly I got it in my recommendation UA-cam is weird but nice setup👍🏻😂
Such a beautiful sounding diesel
Unloading the first time is a little more interesting. With a beavertail ramp I have used a short piece of cross tie, 18 in or so and eased the tractor off to the crosstie then to the ground when unloading.
Not gonna lie, thought he'd pop a wheelie
Didn't know I needed to know this but I am glad I do now.
Nice work!! I saw this pop-up as a recommendation and I just knew it was going to be some idiot popping a wheelie or something. 🤣 You can't load it any better than that right there. 👍
Now that was slick!
Done that a time or two have you? Thanks for sharing!
4 things that are good is a jd tractor a Mack truck a Chevy truck and the good Lord can I get amen to that andy the JD man from sc
This just answered my question that I never asked
Awesome! Very well done sir.
I cut my teeth on a narrow front Farmall tractor. Lots of great memories from that little red machine.
Somethin’ tells me he’s done that before.
Just a light touch on the brake. Common sence is a wonderful thing.
I am pretty sure that I would have been able to figure that out on my own if I needed to. I might not have done it quite as smoothly as that, but it would have gotten loaded anyways.
don't know why but a watch this video on repeat about 10 time lol
driver checks out
That's exactly what I thought he was going to do.
I was thinking he was gonna pop a wheelie but this works too
Wish room people could drive that good
nice i have to do this tomorrow with a farmall. Thanks
Like a boss!
This works perfect also with oliver super 88 an Moline UB
Mis respetos. Desde Osorno. Chile
Skill and brains...
It would be impressive to see him back it on
Factory electric start. NICE!
Now THAT was some skill!
Where? Dont need skill to do that. Nothing impresive about that at all realy
I had to do this with my big John Deere tractors and my big tractor trailers
I'd say he's done that a time or two. I seen an old picture of a truck load of "tricycle wheeled tractors. 4 of them on a 35 or 40 ft flatbed. 1st one was backed on and placed cockeyed
2nx was pulled on and parked cockeyed 3rd backed on 4th pulled on. The noses were parked side by side.
Nice John Deere!
👊👊👊 from Florida
Well I be dad gum!! If I ever have to load a tractor like this or a monster tricycle I’ll know how to do it!
Can you believe it's his first time... LoL
I have always thought it had to be a full deck ramp
Wow. Piece a cake!
Ive been doing that a fair bit with my 520 on my new trl(89) since i built a wood center ramp but its broke i started prepping to build a center ramp but im really thinking building onto the existing ramps each side going to center of trl.

Made that look easy!
Very nice
Look at that 6.0, didn't squat a bit. Nice trailer too.
You tube suggested something useful for once thanks
I was waiting for him to hit the NOS button and punch a wheelie up the ramps
His name must be Magiver.👏👍
Just how I figured it was loaded and I've never seen one loaded before lol
Well done! yet it seems that getting onto platform backwards would have been better for rigging the load
Like a Boss for Shure.
You just can't hem up an old farm boy !😂
Father UA-cam Algorithm has brought us all together once more.
That was slicker than dog shit!!!!
Was I the only one who thought he was back it up on the trailer.
It went through my mind at the beginning but very quickly got rid of the thought as it wouldn't work. I think that front tires are still too small for the quite big step up

or get a piece of 2 x 12.
Lol.
Solid 👌👌
Person: loads tractor
Half a million people: ***interesting***
That clutch lever sure does go a lot further back than normal
Yeah the way John Deere should have designed it in the first place so you don’t have to reach half way to the front tires.
@@efoster5697 I'd rather have it where it normally is instead of banging my hand on the seat when you disengage the clutch.
Anyone figured out how to do this in reverse? Be nice to load two narrow fronts side by side
@Ryan Ripley I'm talking on a gooseneck trailer thats long enough to get two tractors on side by side.
@@dangerrangerlstc If your stacking two narrow fronts side by side I would think you would need center ramps for the front tractor, which traditionally you back on.
