Hello Im Lance (aka Bundy Bear) and doing these videos is my hobby. I do own Queensland Tractor Spares in Australia where I sell parts and offer technical advise to customers.
Parts seen in our videos can be purchased from www.queenslandtractorspares.co...
We have a lot more than we can offer on our web site available to us and in our store. If you dont see what you would like please email info@queenslandtractorspares.com.au and we will help where we can.
I do try and help with technical advise at bundybearsshed@gmail.com if you have a question or are having trouble with your project. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
Really great and helpful show well done and thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Can't wait to see this thing clipping down the highway like a car. :-)
Shouldnt be too far away
Nice explanation Lance.
I need to do this on my old MF35
Thanks for passing on your knowledge.
Cheers,

Thanks Paul,
I really like this technique and will use it for my tractors. The process is consistent and repeatable with sufficient accuracy. Thanks!
Great to hear!
Thanks Lance ---- Well explained. She is really looking good. Regards, Charles @ Nerimbera.
Thanks Charles.
Nice job, genuine video...saw the drop lol! Getting close, lokks good.
If you dont see a drop its a counterfeit Bundy Bear Shed video.
Excellent video - looking good!
Thanks Charles.
Thankyou lance for another great video! Being a recent subscriber I am going back through your videos 👍 a lot of things relate to my mf65
Awesome, thank you! I have a 65 MK2 in the wings for some work on the channel.
Good one .... Bundy bears...cool & simple stuff....
Glad you liked it
Surely you could use a sliding tube with thumb screw to speed up things and no lying down
Yeah could do but didnt want to take the time to make it back then.
have to check the toe in on the safety thongs too .....
Thats way out
You're correct Lance. Toe in too much wears the outside of the tread and toe out too much wears the inside of the tread. Also makes the steering feel odd if it's wrong.
I was thinking on the fly there so glad I got it right.
That tractor looks amazing, is it much work involved to paint everything? i have a 1979 mf 590 wich is in desperate need of a paint job. do you media blast stuff or go over with an wire wheel to remove rust and flaked paint?
G Day Leroy, The parts I have off in often blast but the main chassis is a wire wheel on an angle grinder and some scotch brite pads.
Beautiful Job! I've never been lucky enough to work on anything so clean! Do you plan to sell it?
Probably will after a little fun with it, the shed is only so big.
Lance - great channel, and excellent series on the MF135 - I've just bought a 1966/67 way up here in Canada and she needs new front tires. I've taken a shining to the ones you've got mounted up on this old girl, but for the life of me I haven't been able to find them. What are they, and where did you source them?
Welcome aboard! I got them from Bareco here in Australia as a wheel and tyre set. I use them often.
Hi Lance. I have been trying to adjust my TEF but even when I shorten both sides as short as they will go, they are still very slightly toe out. Does this mean that there's a problem somewhere else?
You may be out a tooth in the steering box that may be worth a look. Usually there isnt a problem. I wonder has someone fitted 35 rods they are a little longer.
Hi Lance, I bought a 135 last summer.
When i drove it home on the blacktop road, as i got up to speed it started shaking like the devil..!! Both front wheels shimmied back and forth. I watched it as i drove. Slowed down to stop it, then sped it up again. I thought worn tie rod ends, but looking at the steering gear there was alot of FLEX in the steering box where the tie rods attached.. Is the gear box worn out? Or need adjusting maybe?
Its a 1965 model. Gas.
Thanks! Someone said it might just need the tow in adjusted, but it was terrible..!!
G Day Steve, I did a video on the 135 steering box and it all adds every little bit of slop adds up to wobbles.
Are those tie down eyes on the front axle stainless?
Yes they are to tie it onto my trailer to go to shows etc, they are marine grade 316 Stainless Steel. I have 1 set of 4 chains that does all of my tractors, makes it quick and easy.
316 Stainless.
Loving the playlist. I have a 1984 MF 250 with just under 5000hrs on the clock. It's blowing out of the oil filler and dripping oil from the dipstick. It runs for a while (hour or so) then stalls and won't start for about 30 mins. I've recently replaced the lift pump and cleaned out the tank/fuel lines/filters etc. I think it has worn piston rings (the power seems down) and I've just obtained a compression testing kit which I haven't used yet.
How easy is it to replace the liners/rings in situ? What steps would you take? Cheers.
Easy enough job to do. On the current MF65 series I should get the liner pulling video out this week some time. Even though my engine is out of the tractor it can be done in the tractor still.
@@BundyBearsShed do I need to remove the front of the tractor to take the oil pan off in order to take the pistons out?
@@richyphillips yes or at least move it forward a bit to clear the sump.
I've got the head off. Lots of soot on the valve gear and a piece of the head gasket is missing between cylinder 1 and 2. I'm thinking I might just as well go ahead and re-build with new bearings, linings and rings anyway, it's done 4700hrs. What do you think?
I have looked through this play list and can't seen to find the video for the front pivot shaft, did you not make one?
I think I would have but done so many I get lost myself, lol.
@@BundyBearsShed There is one for taking it apart , but not for machining it and putting back on.
How aggressive are them tires on a lawn.
Not too bad but you wouldnt want to turn too sharp.
Hi Lance, did we get to see the finished product on the project or have I missed it somewhere?
You've inspired me to have a crack at restoring my old girl. Great series this, very informative and very well put together. I'm guessing I can get everything I need through your business to complete the task.
I stuffed up the paint on the bonnet and have been dodging it ever since but I should get into it. i need to weld new ends onto the linkage arms as well so still a work in progress. I have too much on the go at times but I like to keep busy.
He should just get the measurement from the tire tread side to side
Not as accurate as going on the rim as with older tyres they can wear uneven left to right. Rime will be spot on.

Video of it running at 30:50
It runs well this tractor, I was just taking the grand kids for a ride the other day.
It would appear that there is some play in the steering. At 10:23 you move the left wheel with your foot and again at 16:12 and the right wheel does not move. I notice this several times during the video, when you use the wheel to pull yourself up off the floor.
I replayed them and if there is its hard to see, the box is very tight there is a video on doing that up, the only movement is normal backlash. All threads were still loose here though. Feels good. anyway we will know soon enough when we get it on the road flat out.
Don't forget Brexit day Friday 11pm gmt, us Brits will finally be free from the tyranny of the EU!
You might start to get ahead again. We think it will be a good thing for you but we are looking from a far.
