If I had a dollar for every time I've tried to put in a part backwards I'd be able to pay someone else to do it. Showing the progress and retreat of assembly is just real life.
I would have been swearing like a sailor after realizing the gear was backwards and all the seals were on and parts re-assembled. Really loving this well-done series and learning a ton. Thanks so much! Spent many hours plowing/disking/mowing and hauling wood with a Super C.
I "completely" restore antique Farmall tractors, especially the M's. One at a time, I
unfix the decades of farmer field repairs, then return them to factory original, A long and tedious process. There is no money in the work, I always spend at least double what the tractor would fetch at the tractor show. Farmall tractors were made to last forever back in the day. It is pure joy to put one back in original condition and a great hobby in my retirement.
Great watching all your videos Pete.
you should read books for Audible audio books, your voice is very relaxing. that's another revenue stream you might enjoy, if you like reading. That's not to say I don't enjoy your youtube channel, I like seeing market days and I am really enjoying the tractor series.
In a world that doesn't want to work with their hands or do dirty jobs, it's so nice to see someone that is very talented loving and enjoying their work. You're the kind of folks that built a nation. Love the video.
Great Job! You have the gift of teaching. I learned a lot. I appreciate you showing us that we can make an error, and doing your double and triple checks then finding the problem and fixing it. We all can make errors but the good guys catch it before startup if we are lucky. Your telling every one to check before finial assembly is a great statement. Thank you again for your Videos! I am a big fan.
I can't tell you how many times I've had to retake something apart to put it back together correctly. But making those mistakes is certainly the best teacher. Thank you for making this mistake.
story of my fix-it life... get it all together and then take it all a part to switch around the first thing I put in.... glad you took it so well.

When I was growing up, both my grandfather and father were very mechanically inclined. Me, not so much. They both knew alot but they weren't great teachers as they didn't possess a great deal of patience. But there is a saying "When the student is ready, the teacher will appear". Thanks for making these very informative and entertaining videos!
I have been watching your life for a long time and this may be the 3rd tractor overhaul I've seen. I never get tired of it. I still don't k ow how you do it without cussing. Hahahaha.you would make very fine teacher. You positive temperament astounds me. Thank you for being on the tube.
Pete, you may or may not know, but you sir are truly gifted. That was a lot of little parts moving in conjunction with each other. And you nailed it. And then those clocks you work on... just great man! I'm so glad I found and subscribed to this channel a couple years ago.
Tedious but nothing beats the feel when you're driving it
Everyday I'll appreciate doing it right! Thanks!

Hi Peter Ralph from shelf Wales.
You're going to like this joke.
A man turns to his friend and says name me two days of the week beginning with the letter T.
So he's friend thinks for a few seconds, and then says today and tomorrow. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I really enjoy your channel I’m glad your doing another tractor restoration very educational. I enjoy all your videos. I like it when you show the animals.
I absolutely love watching you take apart and put these tractors back together. Very relaxing.
Yup that's what I said it's very relaxing and he makes it look easy!
I like all your videos but I like the tractor rebuild videos the most.
Very good video.. I'm a 30 year maintenance mechanic and you are doing a very good job.. your explanation on how things work and instructors are enjoyable to listen to and easily followed. Cheers love all your content.. God bless.
Absolutely love that you aren't afraid to show that a mistake was made....I personally feel we learn from that more than a video that has been edited to show only perfection. Keep up the great work Tim! Love watching this!
Rebuilding my own old Ford tractor now. The tips and tricks you show save so much time. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
You don't understand how incredibly frustrated I was when I got to the end of the video and you had to take it all apart again. I used this video as a guide when putting my transmission together and now have to take it all apart again like you had to.
Pete's voice AND thunder. What a treat. It's like ASMR for tractor assembly.
I like watching your channel because you show all the bump and bruises that happen in life.
Nice tee shirt “We Are” PennState
Thanks for the gear education, as I sit wait for the hurricane to hit tomorrow.
Pretty amazing .
That old tractor will be good for another life spent on the farm..
Things were made simple & made to last..
My daughter has a small JD diesel thats 20 yrs old...
It sat for 2 yrs with the brakes set & they locked up..
Im was sure the its a matter of breaking them loose..
But , she's 600 miles away & no mechanical skills...
She had the local JD dealer come pick it up ..
Nxt day they told her it would cost $7800 to fix it..
I visited my daughter last month & my 1st task was her tractor...
Its a 4x4 with low range so I locked it in 4x4 , open the throttle & dumped the clutch..
Brakes popped loose & she just finished mowing 30 acres...
Hate to say it , but that J Deer dealer fully expected to scam my daughter outta several grand...
P.S.
I made the trip to that dealer & had words with the mngr ..
I looked at the estimate & they had two new rims , two new tires , the entire parts list for the brake system & this without even touching the tractor .
Pathetic !
Learn to work on your own equipment is my advice..
Wow! Good thing you knew better!
It's always great to catch a mistake before it's too late.
Hi Pete, this was absolutely awesome. There are only a few people here on YT ( and there are million’s 😝😉) that can explain things like you.. brilliant and thank you. Christoph
Thank you Pete I've been waiting for you to redo the Super C I've watched you twice already thank you so much I'll probably watch it again a couple times you would make a good shop teacher if you seem to have patience and good instructional skills God bless you and Miss Hillary and your family thank you Pete
You're welcome Chris!
Thank you for showing how persistence wins the day. I enjoy watching your attention to detail making sure everything is done the right way. So many think it’s easy to cut corners now not realizing they will pay for it later.
... and some days you are the bird, and some days you are the statue! Another great tutorial.
What a nail biter!
You almost made me miss Wheel of fortune!! 😂
As always a great video.
Keep ‘em coming Pete.
Im watching wheel of fortune now and this haha
Great instructions! Best demonstrative video I can find online. Great details, thank you for sharing your knowledge and love for tractors. I really enjoy these videos….really all of them. Great job! Thanks so much
If I ever bought a rebuilt tractor I would hope someone like you rebuilt it.
Yep, don't ask me how many times I've left the splash guards off after replacing wheel bearings on cars... That's always fun taking the bearing back out to install the splash guard. :) Loving the restoration Pete!!! Thanks for the videos.
Thanks for showing us the restoration Pete! Really love seeing the internals and all the hard work you put into these projects and rework when we make mistakes. I went through an 8N Ford, and the transmission was whining and grinding before I took it apart. Getting it back together and operating properly is so rewarding! Thanks again, stay safe and healthy!
This was a very informatave video, Ive been watching your channel for several months and ive learned so much!! I just started getting into tractor restroation this past year and seeing your videos inspiers me to keep learning about farming and mechenics!!
That felt good to spend 1/2 of an hour watching this video and learning several things. 1) how the transmission works 2) how to measure & check, recheck, and check, disassemble, and recheck again. 3) how to have a positive attitude after doing all that work and realizing you wasted over an hour from one small detail that was missed and had to be redone. 4) I learned people still care when you admit you messed up and persevered to win. Great job Pete, we are looking forward to seeing this come together.
Really appreciate your admitting your mistake instead of editing it out, speaks volumes about your character.
My Daddy quoted someone, who knows who, "Those that don't do anything, don't make any mistakes".
My Goodness, Gracious, what a thoroughly, utterly fascinating man you are! I adore every video you post. All of them! I cherish my Jesuit education, but it has not nearly presented me for the knowledge, lo, these 63 years of my life, for the things you teach me. Wow. You are sublime.
Pete your one amazing gentleman.. my kids love watching you and I'm so grateful to have you showing them how thing and the world works..
That is the great thing about having older tractors, you know how to fix you're own stuff when it breaks down, wll done.
Well I was a dollar short, but not a day late, I've been pacing back and forth for couple days now waiting for this video to show up. I knew what exciting things were coming! after watching the full restoration on the MD. And sure enough you did not disappont me Pete. this was as interesting, thrilling and exciting to watch. At 79 my tractor work is limited to my Cub lawn mower, I just pulled the engine out of that, had two sheared off motor bolts!! that had to be drilled out and retaped for new ones. have no clue why it broke two rear bolts? never hit anything with it ? but you came to mind a lot whilst in the mist of doing that. so see! you do inspire us old farts too! Thanks so much for taking the time to tutor and inspire us all. and for sharing. EVF
Thanks Ellis!
It's good to have a little bear, as a switch from beef chicken and pork, a tasty success all around!!
I'm 0% farmer, and know next to nothing about tractors, but I LOVE watching your videos and I'm pretty jealous you have the time and resources to do what you do! Can't wait to see the final product!
Ok Pete so you took the Foreman's job at the Farmall Dealers, and he's got you doing a transmission job already *Grin*
Another great vlog Pete, you're a Master of these machines for sure.
Take care and Cheers from me a "Fiona" survivor in Canada
Great job Pete it tried to kick your butt lol good thing you got a sharp eye and experience.Cant wait for more!
I love the smell of Permatex in the morning!!
Thank you Peter,
Love that “tribal knowledge “ Glad you captured the sound of rain and thunder in the background. For God’s sake don’t forget the oil 😊
I enjoyed watching you re assemble the engine. Cork Ireland
To err is to be human... Good job, Pete. These tractor restorations are my favorite videos. 🤠👨🌾
since yesterday i keep watching ur videos , just found this and its AMAZING i even showed it to my mom and dad and they also like it , Greetings from Romania !! love all your content !! God bless !! ( sry for typing issues ) :P
Great video! just sitting here in FL waiting for Hurricane Ian to show. Have a great week.
Honestly I don’t understand what you’re talking about mechanics but I’m learning and trying to understand!
Hay Pete nothing like tinkering when there’s an old fanshion thunderstorm out there makes tinkering a lot more relaxing exspecially when the rain hits the roof always enjoy watching you guys keep up the good work
I’m wondering if Patty will notice the upgrade.
Nah,,not really maybe Titus can😃
Sweet Pete !!
Your mechanical knowledge amazes me.
Every part so clean and back to original condition. Amazing!
Hi Pete; we love your chanal. I'm not sure if you knew this but we were surprised to see a John Deere commercial on your show this evening.
There’s a lot of satisfaction in taking the time, and using the proper tools to accomplish a task. Not only will the transmission and rear-end run smoothly and quiet, they won’t get hot and deteriorate gaskets and o-rings. They will provide a lifetime of trouble free operation.
Somebodies playing around with the clouds overhead while Pete's playing around with the Super C. Both got the job done.
A little extra care in assembly will make a lot of difference in the long run. Love seeing all the mechanical stuff it takes to restore a piece of equipment right. Thanks for taking us along.
Great job! Very impressive work you do!
From where I am sitting it looked as though you saw that bear coming and side stepped her, then you did the eating. I’m in adoration that you found the flaw just by looking at it and caught it in time. It’s very exciting for me as a novice to think there’s only this empty metal box sitting there that will soon become a tractor called a Super C. I already see how much more fiddling was required on the MD. (my favorite) I look forward with much anticipation to see the Super C again except in all her glory. Who would have thought I was so interested in tractors. Thanks for awakening my new curiosity. Go team Farmall!
Your tractor/machinery repair/restore videos are the best! Love how you explain and show as you go.
Penn State is my favorite University. Remember Joe Paterno?
Thank you so much for leaving in the mistakes you make on a regular basis. We really appreciate seeing the whole process, all the ups and downs that you live with on the farm.
Thank you for sharing, even the parts that make small children learn new words. My father was always careful, but my uncles on the other hand , let's just say, increased our vocabulary.
Feeling like I can confidently disassemble and (successfully) reassemble the family Super C now. Great job
You show it like it is Pete😊
Thank You Pete for taken the time to film your rebuild. I hope to rebuild my tractor one day.
My husband loves your shows showcasing tractor repairs and rehauls.
I love how you,show everything good and bad.
It’s neat to re build something and bring it back to life. Great series.
as always Pete your still smiling!
Pete
Bushing, Race , snout , bearing and then some wow . At some point if you have time w this build can you talk about the differences and how you know what to call what maybe why it works that way etc ... ?? Trying to keep up lol . I just make things work and when I can't I call my master diesel mechanic neighbor he's a gracious guy and smart like you he's always happy to help . I'm too embarrassed to ask him the differences or in a hurry to get it done . I just do it . He thinks I know more than I really do , shooooo !
I can hang -- make things work -- but not like yunns .
Have a great build -- I'll watch even if you don't have time -- replay !
I like how Pete talks to all the gears to get them sorted out!
Check and double check, so I was told. If it isn't working perfect, check again. Thats what makes professionals, make sure its correct before moving on. Those gears would have ate my lunch, good job on getting to the correct ending. Have a great day and looking forward to the next installment.
We do it right, because we do it twice. Its a pain if there are bolts with sealant, locktite, or gaskets, but that just improves a mechanics ability. You focus on the minute details, which ensures you have something worthwhile in the end. Its a pleasure to watch you work your farm in your zen like state.
Can’t wait to see the super C when you get it done will look and run great. Thankyou for the great videos
Great video. I’m about to rebuild my little John Deere M transmission. Your video helps get me in gear, pun intended! Thanks for your help ,
Knowing you did it right, is champion!
Loving this from the UK Cheerse Pete
really enjoyed the video, even with all the ups and downs - like you say - just life. hope you have a great day. am looking forward to seeing the rest of the build.
Good to see a good mechanic at work, the jobs not done till its done right.
Still looks like a lot more fun than that MD was. At least you got that head back quick.
Everyone puts things together backwards from time to time the trick is seeing it before you put the lid on 😎😎😎😎
You have great patience and a calm disposition 👍
He did edit out an hour...there might have been a grumble and cuss word said during the disassembly🙂 But indeed, I suspect that Pete could give lessons to most of us on staying calm, cool and collected.
Awesome video. Thank you for sharing the good and the bad.
You said about the o-ring price, yea its amazing how much prices have increased. Especially as of late! I work a napa, and its hard explaining the increases to folks when i myself dont even get it.
Skill, agility and knowhow. Great video. All you need is a few of the farm animals narating.😀 Thanks for the variety of your work.
Pete I really enjoy all the videos thank you for everything you do can’t wait until you do the Livestock trailer and truck
Looks good Mr. Pete. When you get done, the Super C will be like a whole new tractor.
i live in Locke and drive by the farm from time to time.and i love the fresh locally raised content on this channel. just wanted to let you know. keep up the good work.
Ahh! The old 9 to 5 day... As Dolly once sang: "It's enough to drive you crazy if you let it" ♥
So nice when everything comes back together just as it should.
I did a H a few years back, even with the “hic-ups” and the backlash snafu, you did good 🙂. My Dad would come in, walk around the tractor, look at my expression, and ask “ are you the statue, or the pidgon this time?” All them Farmall’s look a lot a like inside. When it cranks and runs; You’ll be rewarded 😃
can't wait to see that baby working on the farm
Thanks Pete for another good video
I’m 14 and I’ve learned a lot by watching your videos I recently bought a farmall m and I’m rebuilding it the number one piston has found it’s way into the oil pan lol
Thanks again for another great video! I love all the topics but especially the tractor/equipment repairs. Gives me confidence I can tackle repairs around our homestead.
