Love those older tractors; they were built to last and didn't require a laptop computer just to work on🚜👍
It's nice to see the old 8430's and 8440's still working the fields.
I have a 8440 use it every year over 9000 hours on her still works like new!
@@merleelsing2400 Keep her greased and oiled,it will last you another 20,000 hours easily.
BTP is my soap opera. I can't wait until a new video comes out! I don't live on a farm anymore, but I miss it.
Dads had 7 John Deere 4wd between 7520 and 8870 and I can tell you the sales man that sold a 7520 and months later the 30 series came out should have laid low for a while till farmers cooled down. Was the biggest change in tractor comfort ever in my life. He was so proud of his 8630 and the little light that light up the cab interior at night. I know cause I drove the 7520 lol
Boy that 8650 really takes me back. Remember the farm up the road my my house as a child buying it brand new and then working for them and running it from 13 years old on. Occasionally still get to help when my job allows. Thank you for the great videos.
Please don’t stop what you’re doing continue with these videos they really are good videos exceptional good quality👍
Spent many hours on a John Deere 8650 pulling a Richardson sweep plow in the summer then pulling a John Deere disk ripper in the fall...nice to see these tractors still getting it done!
👍👍. I hope to get a chance to film a sweep plow some day.
Rode in an 8650 pulling tomato bins through a field during harvest a few years ago, it was a beast of a tractor.
It’s really awesome to see some classic John Deere tractors working in the field like that thanks for the upload
We just bought a JD 8760 and look forward to running it this spring
John Deere es el mejor en el mundo
I find these videos very interesting and nostalgic of a life I once knew. Thank you and keep up the good work.
The sound guard John Deere is the best. Live and love them there tractors.
Scott Vaudrin What models do you own?
We don’t anymore. We all moved on but did own a 4430, 4640, and a 4450 mfwd. The most common tractor in our area was the 4430 and 4440
We worked with farmers who had these tractors
Great video! Thanks for all of the effort that you put in to filming these old tractors.
Best tractors ever
Not much of a Deere fan, but there's a special place in my heart for the 4WDs made in the 70s & 80s. Also the old L & LA..... the streamlined 34 corn sheller..... & that hay cuber thing. That machine was massive!
Great video and information Thanks to all fantastic Work .
Hello, I grew up in the North Central IL farmland and love seeing all your videos. I would really like to know more about the implements being used in your videos, like brand, size and their purpose being used in those videos. Thanks and keep the videos coming!
When I was a child, I assembled a 1:24 scale model of the JD 4430 and I still love it a lot today. Unfortunately I got lost.
Powerful john deere tractor
The tractors are all right, but I like seeing the tillage. Seeing how they're working the soil.
A lot of these guys are wasting time working it over and over ..But its also for the camera shot..
thanks BTP for another awesome video with interesting info that im glad you are documenting for the future generations to come...I spent many many hours in a 8770 as a teenager and loved every minute of it!!!!!!
Thank you for watching. The 8770 is one of my favorite tractors.
@@bigtractorpower its my favorite as well, our family farm bought one new in 93-94 and im sure i was lucky enough to put 90% of the first 1000 to 1500 hrs on it...thought i was the MAN in that thing, lol..we also done custom work as well so it certainly didn't stand idle to long ..once again thanks for the great video
Nice video and the tractors in it.
Thank you for watching.
Great video!
That are some nice looking tractors 👍 keep up your great work👍
Love your John Deere shows keep them coming
Another good video of tractors out in the working ground & good information about each featured outfit shown. Stay safe.
Still have our 4430 sound guard cab, that was a great cab, that blocked sound like nobody’s business
Moved to Manitoba end of 95 and ran a 8440 for first year and in 97 traded to a 2yr old 95 8970 and it's still my favorite seeding tractor (even over out NH T9.615 on tracks) coming up on 8,500hrs (just "broke in" as they say)
Very cool. The T9.615 Smarttrax is one of my favorite tractors. I hope to film one someday.
Another good video from Bigtractorpower
Thank you for watching.
Love Your movies. Thank You for them.
I didn't realize there were 4x4 tractors that early till I watched your channel in western NC we never saw a 4x4 tractors till the 80s and we needed them in the early 70s.I imagine the manufacturers for got about us burley farmers.
4wds really gained ground in all brands after 1975. Many farms did not see themselves as 4wd operations before the 1970. The early Deere’s were limited. Only 99 8020s were made and under 50 WA models.
Loved it. Thanks
Thank you for watching.
Excellent video 👍👍👍
Thank you Craig. You are finding some good videos in the archives.
@@bigtractorpower Yes it's a goldmine of great videos...
Thank you for informative like these.
Lots of memories come back from this video.
Good times and not so good!!
Great video ! I have gotten to run everyone of them through the years
That is impressive. Which was your favorite to run?
@@bigtractorpower the 8630 only because I was a kid and really felt like I was driving something big!
Our dealership in Henrietta NY John P Halpin &Sons. 1977-78 service dept was overwhelmed with mod kits for the 8430 and 8630. If my memory is correct 40 + hours per unit. 6 or mechanics working on that project. Deere was notorious for releasing 30 series tractors before putting it basic " Getting the bugs out "
Great video of the Deere’s best...
Good memories
😁👍👍
The 8650 is my favorite tractor of all time. We were both created the same year. Tho it only came in a quad range, as far as I know.
😁👍
Excellent compilation. These are some of my favorites of your videos. Seeing so many different tractors and implements in one clip is really cool. Keep up the good work.
It looks like the 8960 decal is messed up -- the right side looks like 8760 instead? Maybe the 9 was damaged? It's the same tractor, right? You can see at 7:35 and 8:15.
How about series on Versatile tractors? Cheers
Nice review, enjoyed it
Hi Jason Great video love to see that old iron still running . There one tractor in the line up was the 8970 witch had a Cummins diesel. I haven't seen one in a long time. I think it had a N14 Cummins? Not for sure Thank you for showing us the videos
Nice video, as always.
Thank you for watching.
@@bigtractorpower I thank you for all the information and the agreeable farming scenes!
We still run 3 8870’s they outperform the newer John Deere and case 4wds we have. My dad and my grandpa agree they were the best thing they ever purchased brand new.

We bought one of the last 7520s at a JD dealership now out of business near Morenci, Mi...beside it sat a new 8430.....I wanted the 8430 but dad didnt want to spend the extra money...I believe the 8430 cost around $15000 more than the 7520 . The 7520 was a beast but the cab left a lot to be desired...the a/c never worked and the fancy AM radio couldn't be heard over the engine .
A joke and a joke....90% of them 8630's out there have been split or motors pulled...Kinda of a turd like 1466 1486 1566 1586... Pulled to hard and puled to hot..
@@davehughesfarm7983 ...I don't know exactly what the joke was. The 7520 was a beast and we ran it hard for 22 years , last time I heard it was still working in Southern Ohio . We replaced the 7520 with a 9300 , it was a great running tractor .
But yes the 619 in the 30 series wasn't one of JD better engines .
@@toledojeeper2932 The air co and cabs on them 20 series...We had them junk cabs on a 4020 and 4520..Took them off..
@@davehughesfarm7983 ...I dont think a 7520 looks good without a cab , we lived through it . I installed 2 big electric fans in it and that helped quite a bit .
@@toledojeeper2932 Awesome and I agree..
The older 30 and 40 series have been run hard and long. These articulated JD's haven't held their resale values like the 4440's or 4640's. There is a bareback JD 8770 for sale in Kansas for $22,500!
As a 4wd collector I like that the articulated machines being less. It makes them affordable. I am surprised more people don’t take advantage of the low cost Hp.
bigtractorpower Yes, plenty of hp but they are not for every farm nor for many chores.
Nice
I regret I never had the opportunity to run one with the sound guard cab. Only a 7520 my boss owns and a 9400 that belongs to a construction company
Good video, like!
Thank you for watching.
When farmers are planting what is the purpose of the outrigger looking thing on the planter ? And why is it only used on one side
That is a marker arm. It draws a line in the soil. The tractor has a silver sight on the hood and the operator lined the sight up with the line and follows it back across the field to keep a straight line. These markers are not used as often today as many tractors use gps to auto guide the machinery.
😆chuckling
It marks the center line of your next pass.
What about the 8850??
Nice old iron
I like tracking down the classics to film.
Never been Sound Guard cab on JD articulated tractor, only 2WD 3130 n 50 series with six cylinder.
Hey I would like for you to come out to my farm here Alamo Tennessee . I have an 8630 I would like for you to do a video on
Thank you. Please email me at toytractortimes@gmail.com
Great video. I'm still curious why they went to such a small window in the 40 and 50 series compared to the earlier 30 series large window by the foot controls. I suspect that it had to do with broken glass from debris off of the front tires but I've never read anything about it. Normally window size increases with newer models of tractors.
I think it was broken windows that lead to the change. I will have to research that. The sales brochures do not mention the window change.
@@bigtractorpower cool I appreciate it
Having operated 30, 40 and 50 series I would have said it was to do with noise reduction. 40’s and 50’s have much less noise through the door.
@@mrsound-gard7556 sounds possible
Suddenly I miss my Dad's 8440. Did they skip the 55 series with this style?
Yes there was not a 55 series 4wd. The 8960 and 4955 came out at the same time. The 8970 was offered with the 4960 and the 8400.
Bigtractorpower could u make I video of I side x side comparison some and 8630 and a 9620r?
An 8630 might be tough with a 9620R in the same field as I don’t know any close together. I can do an 8850 and 9620R pretty easy. You can see an 8850 working close to a 9620R in this video th-cam.com/video/rnuLXxL04EE/w-d-xo.html
Thank you!! Always have wanted to see an 8630 next to a 9r as I have never operated any of the 9r tractors but I own and operate 5 8630s
Hi Jason, why the disk at the begining is bent into the center? Is it not completly unfolded?
Which tractor is pulling the disk?
@@bigtractorpower The 8440. I've seen this in many videos. Do they not lock the wings?
It is a 26ft Reel Disk. I am not sure if they did not fully unfold or level at the start.
You know Ive asked you this before and completely forgot but what was the sound-gard style adopted for??
Did you miss the 8850?
This video just shared one model from each generation. I do have a few stand alone 8850 video on the V8 and Kinze are Power models here on the channel.
Does anyone know what exactly was done to the 8630 in the 60 hour factory backed revamp back when they were current. My neighbour bought a new 8630 an a piston broke after only 215 hours, they were that bad. It was taken back to the dealer and had this program done.
I am not sure I was only a few months old when the 8630 was brand new. I have heard they had a lot of engine problems and many were reposted with the engine used in the 8650 a Cummins through a Kine Re Power.
My bosses own an 8770 like the one in the video,,and a 9220.
what was the tractor doing at 5:51? and why would you do that on a grown field?
That’s a stripped wheat field, there are special headers for wheat (I think BTP had a video on them) that only that the grain and leave the stalks and then he’s no till planting probably soybeans into it
Top🇧🇷🇧🇷✌🏻👊🏻👍🏻💪🏻☠️
Its out subject but what do you think of the case autonomous concept ?
Le ptit Chauffeur I’m obviously not who you asked but I’m gonna weigh in regardless: it’s bullshit. I for one actually enjoy driving tractors and showing of the skills that auto steer can’t replace
Cuántos hp tiene el tractor 8430
175 hp on the 8430
