- Got a 8295R tractor that I inspected and have come up with a list of repairs needed before this tractor hits the field this spring. In these series of videos, you will see MFWD, ILS, engine, transmission, and electrical repairs.

boy believe me when i say a mechanic like you now days is extremely hard to find. much respect.
You don’t see a lot of good mechanics anymore because it doesn’t pay as much as it should especially for the tooling needed and amount of knowledge. So it’s a dying industry sadly. I am a mechanic and see so many people that have moved away from being a mechanic. And a lot of them have been a mechanic for 20 plus years leaving. I watched a master tech leave the field completely.
Fortunately the farmer has an old 1970's International to keep farming while the late model tractor spends it's time hiding in the shed.
So true 😂
That tractor needed the Larson Farms "Brody" treatment before you started to work on it.
That water pump has to be the worst design ever 😢
Love the ZK style of tech work. No shortcuts, He knows what to do, great Professional. Salute from Florida.😃
I appreciate that!
Always great VIDEO you explaine in great details thanks for showing
It always boggles my mind how much repairs these tractors need. I work on heavy equipment and we rarely see this much repairs needed for that amount of hours.
You don't do preventative then you wait till it breaks
Very interesting. Knowledge is very useful. Makes the job more easier. Love watching
Spring is coming sooner than expected. Here in WI, we had two weeks of winter and the ground never froze. I love your videos. These new machines are a much different creature than the old 8N I'm used to. I love learning about the new technology. Stay safe, and God bless.
Luv what you have done to the crew cab, converting it into a world of new space for your tools etc. Nicely fitted out, looks factory spec'. Great video too, looking forward to more on the way. Luv ya guys, KTGIM Julian U.K
Thanks for another great video ZK and Joseph.
It was most interesting and informative.
As always, super video to learn from and very informative on how various items come apart and how you get to them.
I really enjoy learning how a lot of these repair items come apart much less how to get to them to make things happen.
My compliments to you ZK on how you approach what needs to be done and how to sequence these items. On this tractor you went over the list of repair items and I will admit you completely blew me away, I would be afraid to approach a list like that much less on the proper way to do the items.
You are doing great with your new technician Joseph, teaching him on the proper way to do these repairs. What he learns from you is worth more than a new person might realize. Worth its weight in gold. You are a great teacher ZK.
Will watch for part two. Thanks for everything ZK. Glad your new truck is coming along fine.
You take care.
The Iowa farm boy. Steve.
When you take on a large project like this why don't PRUSSURE wash it😊
Another great video Zeth! I watch your videos as soon as they come out! Learning a lot, used to wrench on Versatile, Ford and Massey tractors and ect but never new John Deere tractors. Really enjoy watching your videos, keep up the awesome work! Greetings from South Central Manitoba, Canada! 🇨🇦 Just a few miles to the Canada-USA border crossing with North Dakota! 🇺🇸
Enjoy your content I have been heavy equipment mechanic for 30 years work deere dealer for 10 years then a huge rental company 20 years lot of different equipment love johndeere
I'm delighted with your channel. Great job! I am from Ukraine, and I repair AGCO equipment (FENDT, CAT, Valtra). But it’s very interesting to know how JohnDeer works :)
3600 hours that’s quite a bit of use in the first front main seal. That’s pretty cool that’s awesome. Everything you did was a preventative maintenance item that’s pretty good.
really? 3600 hours is nothing, very disappointing it needs that much work
I’m always waiting in anticipation of what we’ll see next on ZKMastertech. True professional and I love that new service truck. Can’t wait to see the back seat delete filled up with specialty items. Love the channel.
Awesom video Zeth. Keep these coming, much appreciated.
Thanks, will do!
Zeth another exceptional video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Definitely look you up at the next one. You all stay safe!!
Thanks 👍
A few days ago I was in a John Deere store, I remembered ZK and his work in keeping these great machines in full working order. Keep up the good work, greetings from Brazil!
Hey Zeth, you sure know your way around the green iron, nice work, enjoy watching. Is the amount of required work typical of the 8295 or did the owner let things go a bit too long ?
Great video Zeth and that water pump sure wanted a fight! Great to see young Joseph getting really involved in this set of repairs. Thanks as always from Scotland and looking forward to part 2.
Is there anything that can be replaced without taking off five other things? Seems like most of your jobs are just getting to the bad stuff.
I always enjoy how watching how things work. I hope you have continued success.
Zeth you're a true professional, always meticulous and pro-active and a world of knowledge. Thanks for sharing, always enjoyable, interesting, informative, educational and entertaining. Greetings from NE rural Ohio.
I appreciate that!
Well done really interesting seeing how you get around all this stuff
Super job,still miss the dynamic dou.
Hint; don't put anything on the back wall that can fly forward in an accident or power stop. Might result in a real bad headache.
Or at least be sure its SUPER secure!
You are an amazing tech and mechanic…incredible knowledge!
Thanks 👍
Another awesome video! Thanks for sharing!
Great video Zeth 👍 Keep up the great work bud. I got the pipi done on the 13.6L Not to bad
i am a jd guy,but them 8r tractors are nothing more then a money pit for the farmer.jd engineer's should be ashamed of them selfs for the amount of damage for only 3500hrs.i see more and more guys on other youtube channels with the same complaints.
It's part of it with this new crap 💩 it just doesn't work fan issues, Def issues and then sensors
We run a 2013 8235r, didn’t buy it new, had between 5 and 6k hours on it, and has over 8k now, and the only major issues we’ve had with it to my knowledge are a computer glitch that kept forcing it into neutral, and where the rear axle mounts on the tractor had a bad seal or race that needed replaced. No idea what was done to it before we bought it though.
Edit to add: it’s our only mfwd we own on our farm so it gets a ton of hours put on it every year, we bought it in late summer 2018, and it does everything from mowing barditches to planting.
Maintenance is a huge part of it
This seems like a crazy list of repairs needed after so few hours, drivetrain stuff that you would expect to last significantly longer
24 minutes into this and Well Done! Great video, great lighting and Detail. Keep up the great work and good luck on the 16 hour days ahead. Drink lots of liquids and eat!
Thanks! Will do!
Always a good day when ZK notification pops up
Agreed!! Love watching the videos. Mr. Key, Keep up the amazing work! ☺️
Thanks! 🙏
I am a new subscriber just found your channel by chance. I am a John Deere fanatic and you have a dream job. Love your videos and now I binge watch them.
The systematic approach always amazes me. There is a proper sequence to taking things apart. Thanks for taking the time to show us what is being done.
I know what you’re saying. For me,it’s easy to tear into a project with the mindset of just getting it done. Breakdowns,and fixing those breakdowns, are a problem,so I tend to tear into it with the idea of putting it in my rear view mirror as quickly as possible! Not good,I know.
Great video! Keep them coming!❤
How many days did you work on this tractor? Just wondering how long it takes to fix all that.
ZK, looks like this one has been run hard and put up wet😢
A buyers worst nightmare lol
Got my popcorn ready! Let’s go!
love watching and leaning from you ZK
Great video I really like your content!
Glad you enjoy it!
THANK YOU ZETH
Didja ever go to America Sings at Disneyland? "Pop goes the weasel! (He he he he!" 😊 17:38
Hi Zk mastertech, could you make a video on how to adjust differential
I will when the time comes.
They changed them up but you need to upgrade those tires to Michelin XZE I believe is the name they are biggger and much better ride I just can’t remember what the newest name of that tire is but I’m sure your local tire guy can find it .. makes a world of difference when driving the F550 Crane trucks
I would drill and tap two of those holes in the pump turbine so next time it has to be pulled it's easier. Also, how about some of that food grade antiseize on those Orings?
I really enjoy these more detailed technical videos. I am a master tech In other parts of the mechanic industry but have always wanted to do diesel and heavy equipment.
Just wanted to say great work man! Not to pry but do you feel you are paid what your worth. I know the John Deere dealers in Oregon pay their top mechanics around 25$ an hour. Also do you recommend buying snapon or buying a mix of brands of tools and not being loyal to one brand. Thanks
Great video as always, but that much work after 3600 hours is shocking. I hope it's a bit of a one off and maybe had a bad operator but for the price of these things, that's not good.
oh my god. 3500 hrs and the list is that long? 935 946 versatile havent had that big of a worklist in 25 yrs lol.
Has to be the worst water pump design ever!!!
$250 bucks for that speaker. You all are crazy.
i wish they would be better to pull im always bending those legs. or making them look like hockey sticks. or what i have done is put good pressure on the water pump and let them sit for a few hrs. they break free
If you get in a minor wreck in that truck, you are going to die due to tools flying around in the cab. 😮😮😮
And while we're at it we're going to split the tractor to change the oil. Geez what did this cost....
The older 9.0 water pumps with the snap ring are so much worse than the new style
Love your channel
Thanks! 🙏
Thanks for the videos. Keep em coming
Thanks! Will do 💪🏼
Great job sir.
Just a suggestion fom an Aussie, why don't you ut a piece of 100 mm sewer pipe with end caps on the floor, line it with carpet and put your tension wrench in that. It is much safer than the back wall and much better protected.
Always enjoy the videos brother!
Thank you! 🙏
Is that front tire driving anyone else crazy
Think about a crash with those huge heavy torque wrenches in the cab with you. They can fly loose and kill you!!!
They will be tied down. Already thought about that.
Thank you for sharing
You bet!
Zeth, der beste Landmaschinenmechaniker 🇨🇭😇
Cup holders?I thought they were stubby holders cheers from Bundaberg Australia
A toilet brush works really well for scrubbing off the dirt/oil mix. around seals that are leaking.
How many hours on the tractor????/
Removing that rear seat to make more room is a great idea, just make sure to fix everything that's going in there good and strong. don't just clip that torque wrench up on that board. You'll be grateful of it if god forbid you are in an accident. No body wants a torque wrench to the back of the head etc. Or of course, fix a caged wall between this new found room and the front seats. Either way. 😃
Blimey, 3.5k hours and it’s dropping to bits 😳😳.
Nice Step Brothers quote. You worked it in masterfully. Probably went right past a lot of people
Zeth. I have an 8285r, the pto is slow to shut off I don’t believe it’s a pto brake issue it seems as if it’s slow to disengage. There’s no codes that show
Great work
I'm so glad I found this channel. Very informative. I've been liking for more than a year, maybe two. You always leave me wanting more. Can't wait for the next video.
Happy subscriber 😊!
Great to hear!
Is it common to have to do that amount of work on a tractor with only 3600 hours on it?
The water pump was preventative maintenance, usually change them out every 3,000 hrs. While we were that deep, it was a good idea to change out the dampers and the front main seal because the dampers are a 4500 hr service interval if they make it that long…the MFWD bearings is not super common.
If you get in an accident.will the tools not come forward?
-+.+thanks!!
Welcome!
Love the video
How much money do you believe that you have invested into your tools?
Betting $200k easily.
One word, mini fridge
Nice Vid!
i wonder if the engineers have t work on this stuff before out it out there
Is this a customers machine, or a rental unit?
Man that Ils sucks
Its always amazing to me that these farmers pay hundreds of thousands for this equipment, and yet don't keep them clean and free of packed in dirt and debris. Much less regular maintenance. Thanks for all your work and videos.
Guys that trade/lease off every year or 2 probably don't care adn leave it up to the next person, like me 🤣
Most guys who run machines this new do, but not this one.
You don’t make money with them if they aren’t in the dirt
Looks like owner was too lazy to pressure wash the tractor before bringing it in. 😖😡
@@charlesbennett6242 With a washed engine, possible oil leaks are no longer so easy to recognize.
A lot of maintenance for expensive tractors
It is very hard to keep a tractor clean.i now as i use to work on the farm.
Not that hard at the end of the season to pressure was equipment before putting away for the winter or getting it ready to work on. Been doing for 50 yrs.
Hey Zeth! Random question I’ve been meaning to ask. How come most JD tractors have a front facing exhaust pipe? Keep up the great videos!!
So the operator can see it
Did you take the rear seat belts out completely or leave them plugged in under the plywood? My work truck is a 22 f550 crew cab chassis with the same stellar bed. Disconnecting rear seat belts turns on a srs light so they are just plugged in laying on floor. Been wanting to do the same thing with packout racks.
I took them completely out. No issues.
I enjoy your content, but I would like to see something on some of the smaller tractors. Maybe a 6 series.....
I have a video on a 6400
great stuff
3600 hours and your doing this much maintenance and replacing this many parts? What was the total cost of this repair and how much was covered by warranty? Thank you.
Warranty is only good for 1 yr unless it's emissions
@@agger838Interesting. 3600 hours in the trucking industry would be about 12-18 months of operations. There is ZERO % chance that these kind of maintenance issues would be present on ANY model of modern semi tractors. And if there were such mechanical defects, most major trucking companies have 24-36 month warranties.
@@jeffhatmaker817 OTR trucks don't run 80% - 100% engine and driveline load for 10 -12 hours a day. Hardly an equal comparison.
And they are not running in the dirt.
@@buckhorncortez I'm not sure what percentage of engine power we use at 70+ thousand pounds, but items like driveshafts, axles, fan drives, IVTs, etc should NOT be unserviceable or completely worn out after 3600 of service. Yes I understand that operating in the field causes issues. But presumably Deere's engineering is taking the operating conditions into consideration?
Keep the deere's running and stay safe
Seems like your putting lot of dry fan hubs in why isn't factory doing this
They did start putting them in. Then they got rid of that design all together and now the fan is driven from a small gear case with an electro viscous clutch.
Should tried the riddle gun under pressure
I'm jealous, I wish I had that much freedom with my service truck, looking good from CT bud!
Awesome
