If you still use your 1 piont hitch disc harrow . Lower the hitch on plow and it will level itself out and lift higher . A little cutting and wielding will fix your problem .
If you want your disc cut better i went to a tire shop and got me a used 18 wheeler truck tire and put on my disc it cutting way better now it balance the disc out
I rebuilt it last year. That shaft was tight . The only part I can’t buy is the part that was wore the most. The main steering shaft with the worm on the end.
Most time its the gear that goes on the shaft with bearing on top cause a lot of slack pull 3 bolt and plate drop shaft and weld shaft to gear that will help a lot on slack
Hey Joey, would connecting to the bottom hole on the rockshaft give more range of lift than the upper hole? The upper hole will probably lift more weight. I’ve only had my 140 for a couple months and I’m painting it now. Just hoping to gain some knowledge for the spring. Thanks
I always preferred scalloped blade like yours as opposed to round blades scalloped usually makes more efficient cuttin when on light disk. More concentrated psi on cutting edge.
You need the bar in the front center, when you drop the plow you can lower the (front cultivator) while lowering the back and adjust it accordingly, that's the way we do ours, it will let the back of the harrow down when you lower it
@@Jtwes I love your videos btw! That 140 is a cultivating tractor! We have a double bottom 14 inch moldboard plow we use with ours, that center bar needs to be adjusted accordingly when using it too, but it does a good job of breaking the ground in the winter so it can freeze and be good and mellow by spring
I enjoy watching the videos the 140 will do the job. It not me but I would put crimson clover in the corn field to build your soil and put Nitrogen in the soil as well.
Finally getting rain and a break in the high temps over here in NE Texas. Corn might be looking good tomorrow. With luck it will be too wet for me to do anything but at least look at and maybe even pull a few ears.First field work will be working on the clay in my failed pea/pinto patch.Got a plan.... Looks like you're getting an early start. Have volume off since I'm at work but will watch and listen this evening. Another good video is what I've seen.Oh, squash patch broke 300 pounds a few days ago and still making squash. Just a crazy year in that patch for squash.
That little piece you talked about made the difference picking up my 122 disc that came with the tractor. I think it gives it a little more leverage picking up the disc.
Looks like it worked pretty good! I too have a fast hitch, and I'm trying to decide between locating FH implements, or getting a 3 point hitch conversion, then just buying cheap 3pt equipment.. choices choices.
Hey Wesley thanks for watching. You know that’s kinda why I built it. IH 1 point is getting hard to come by and if you do find it parts are getting rare.
Do you know if a number 1000 international loader will fit on a 274 international I know they were meant to fit super A and international 140 but I figured since they’re so similar with some slight modifications it might fit since they are both offset tractors
New to your channel awesom formally 140 tractor 🚜 thanks for sharing your thoughts and comments with us 🇺🇸,
Hello Artford,
Thank You and welcome to the channel.
You need to make a spike tooth harrow for you disk to help breakup and smooth ground behind the disc. Just a thought
Hey Robert
That’s a thought. Thanks for watching.

I hope it doesn’t come to that. Lol

Hey Joe
Weight is definitely the trick. Those disk are so light .
Pull steering down and weld the gear to the shaft will take care of that

Its lifting it higher,but also not working nice level in the soil
You’re right it doesn’t.

Hey Tom
I think it actually is less lift travel. I haven’t done it in a long time.
I thought it was a farming video? Turns out it's a video about a tractor suffering from Trichotillomania.............Lots of "Hair" pulling there....
Cs I don’t believe I know what that is.

I can see that. I need to find another disk harrow.

Might just try that.👍

1972BRJ Thank You for watching 🙂
Enjoyed it. Ready for that plowing video. Need some pointers on my IH plow, just restored it never put it in the dirt
I’ll probably be doing some plow videos in September
I would probably have mowed that plot then raked it then turn plow before I put harrows to it.
Like your harrows. What make are they?
One is a King Harrow and my other two are IH .

Oh naw lol got enough high octane goats now lol thank you for watching

Kinda wished I had planted some squash now lol

It will. I would love to get a IH made 122. My buddy up the road has one I used one time and it cuts real good.
When I harrow my garden the second pass I cut across the first pass
I’ve done that it works good . I just wanted to get the grass starting to die.
When I cut across the second pass to make smaller pieces and it rots faster
Where I come from we always did that, best way to break ground.
Looks like it worked pretty good!

That little Farmall sounds like it really runs good 🚜
She could use a little love but it does good. Thanks for watching

I’ll be honest with you I don’t know a whole lot about those loaders on a 140 or Super a
