I recently rebuilt most of the engine on my '53 H that I inherited, and never sat on a tractor before that. It has a manure bucket on it. This has given me the ambition to try this where I live outside of the Twincities. Thanks!
Beautiful country up there. I have a 47 A. Been in the the family since 48. No more farm work. Just a log skidder now. I like the plow set up you have. Thanks for the video
I like the side skirts! I just picked up a 140 with a plow for my shop but we haven't gotten enough snow yet this year for me to try it out. Can't wait to see how it does. Just added rear weights and chains so I should be good
Nice tractor. Love the sounds of the exhaust and gears. She’s a little slow lowering the plow, but that’s nice, nice and clam, no rush. Great tractor therapy. Gotta like old tractors. I have a 1951 TEA20 Ferguson tractor I use for different tasks. Thanks for the video. Plow 7’ wide ?
Yep on the plow. My hydraulic pump is only one directional. Piston moves the blade up - gravity, down. It cost a bit less when I bought it, and keeps me from getting ahead of myself when plowing.

my only question for you is. what do you do when you can pile it any higher? i have though about this with my H for a back up but shoot some times my piles are 7-8 feet tall. maybe if i fab a load to fit a home made blade?
I rely on depth rather than height. I can push the snow back quite a ways from the driveway and try to start that way early in the year. Had a dump of some heavy wet stuff in December that kind of caused some problems with that, but will deal with that as the winter moves on. A snowblower is my backup.
I love the old farmalls, the four cylinder IH just keep going and going

My dad and I skidded logs for many years with and old F-12, and then later with a Farmall "C". Thank you!
Great video-I about 50 miles east of St. Cloud
That's what I used in MN this winter but mines a super A also our 1970 scout
Looking Good, Red power is the only way !
Send a picture of that 1946 to Pete @ just a few acres big farmall fan
The Farmall is what fed America back in the day.
It's good to see an honest man!!! All the youtubers with their foreign tractors would have called that a foot of snow. Thanks for an honest video.
I call’s ‘em as I see’s em!
i love how every timr i look up IH JD is advertising

If you need some snow to practice on you can bring it up here! 😂
Very nice set up. I had a 49 M sold to my dad. Then got a 57 cub. Traded it for a pickup, bad move. Should have kept the cub.

Good thing there isn’t much traffic. Nice to see old red working again!
At the end of a dead end road! 😁
Super A, right? I mean, where did the hydraulics come from?
Not a Super A. Added the plow and have the hydraulics hooked up to an electric pump that runs off my battery.
Ha! Must be an electric lift, I never thought of that.
Yep! Works great!
I have to know! How did you rig hydraulics to your A??
See answer above. One of these days I’ll post a video how it works!
i lived in Hibbing , moved back to Montana

My dad worked for US Steel for 38 years, and I did for parts of two years while I was going to college. Natural ore at Taconite and Marble.
