Soybean Farmer ... I sometimes use a 2 bottom Dearborn plow that came with my grand fathers 52 8n Ford. It's not in the best of shape but it gets the job done.
Looks like my kinda good time! Man i wish I had more tillable land myself. I only have 2.5 acres, and it's mostly woods. But you better believe I play tractor with my 2 bottom plow behind the Oliver still where I can! lol
I've had that plow for nearly 30 years. I used it a lot when I had the Ford 4000 and the Massey 165 and 150 diesels. I was really surprised that little gas tractor pulled it in 3rd gear low range. As for the land, I grew up on this farm. My mom's great grand father came from Virginia in the late 1880's and settled here on several hundred acres. Besides mom and dad, my brother and myself. some cousins have a few tracts left of the original farm. Most was sold off years ago. Thanks !!!
@@rodder2046 nice video. That's the massey 150 with z145 engine? And you answered a question I had regarding the gear you plow in. I have a 135 with the z145 and a 2 bottom plow that i havent used yet. I was hoping it wouldn't be a problem for my little 135.
Great tractor! What type of soil is that? I'm in Tennessee and I have the continental z145 in my 135. It's all clay soil and I'm wondering if my massey can pull it through the clay.
Your 135 has the same horsepower but it weighs about 500 pounds less than a 150. I was plowing in what we call sandy loam soil (about 40% sand). But we have some pure clay soil in a few places on the farm. The 150 would pull through the 3 bottom ok, but the 165 that we had would pull through with no problems. However, dad has a MF 245 which is about the same as a MF 135, just a little newer. It has no extra weigh (fluid) in the rear tires and it just will not pull that 3 bottom plow very deep. So if I am going to plow in clay soil with the 245 I always use a 2 bottom plow. Back about 20 years ago I had a 135 that had fluid in the tires. It would pull the 3 bottom plow just fine. I guess what I'm trying to say is if you are planning on doing a lot of deep plowing you need to have fluid in the rear tires and/or rear wheel weights if you are going to use a 3 bottom plow. Even a 2 bottom plow is hard pull sometimes in clay soil without the extra weight in the tires. Thanks for watching and I hope my info was helpful !!!
My grandpa has a massey Ferguson 150 diesel. He told me when I asked him which of his two tractors he uses more he said the international of the same age of the massey Ferguson is too expensive to operate since its gas

Ole girl still got some kick in her! Thanks for sharing Rodder!
Yeah she does. I wasn't expecting that lil gasoline engine to have that kind of power. Thanks for watching !!!
ScottyRockTrains - his plow reminds me of the two bottom we co-own. but Rodder 204's works.

@@rodder2046 thanks for that reply. All 4 tires have fluid in them. I have a 2 bottom that I will try in the clay. Hope it pulls with no problems.
Do you like the gas engine better than the 3 cylinder perkins?
I prefer the 3 cyl Perkins diesel engine
