Very Nice Green Tractors 🧐👍👌Very Nice Feature for sure 👍👍🧐 Keep Warm Cheers 🍻🍻
I agree with you, being able to have the lynch pin stored on the lift arm of the 3 point hitch is very handy. I had a John Deere 4600 that had places on the 3 point lift arm for the lunch pins. I currently have a LS MT468 that has places on the 3 point lift arm for the lynch pins. I've also got a Farmall 806 & it too has a place to store the lynch pins on the 3 point lift arm.
It’s the small little things that can have a big impact on how your work goes. Having a pin holder on the lift arm is a great time saver.
The old 1956John Deere 420 row crow we use to have had little metal clips welded on for a pin and a small hole to hook a chain on as well and to the lunch pin.
I never thought about it, really good idea. Good video Ben.
Ben, I agree with you 100%. I have eight 8N Fords tractors and they all have loops spot welded to the left arms. My Kubota MX5400 didn’t have them. I fabricated a pair of loops exactly like the ones on my 8N tractors and welded them onto the left arm. Something very simple but very handy to have. Thanks for another great video Ben.
54' Ferguson TO30 has them. Super handy to have. A few dollars worth of material and labor at the factory would sure save someone several steps over the life of the tractor going after their pins from the toolbox instead of where they should have been all along. Keep the videos coming and be safe out there.
Yes my Long 360DT, Kubota B2620 has them, and they are handy as pocket on shirt, awesome topic, God Bless
Good to know! Thanks for watching
Wow, I thought that was a common feature. My Kioti CK2610 has them. My dad’s JD4310 has them too. You’re right about that being handy. I’ve never really thought about it because all the ones that I’ve ran from the little compacts we have to the bigger ones (Ford 5030) had them there. I agree, that should be an industry standard.
Yeah it’s so useful. Thanks for sharing your experience and for watching!
My compact tractor has that feature it's very handy hooking up implements
I agree also my 1993 ford 5030 has them very handy for sure
I agree Ben. It’s the little things that make the work more enjoyable. When I remove my pins, it’s easy to drop them in the weeds. My BX does not have the holes for the pins. If I bought a welder, that would be a good project. Enjoy The Journey - Cheers
The BX is the most frustrating one for me because the little storage box is just barely big enough to store pins in. I’m thinking of added some as well. Thanks for watching
Ben, Been fixing this problem for years on all my tractors when i first get them, I just take a piece of 3/8 chain and cut 2 links out, then just cut the link on the ends and weld the longer end on one arm, and the other on the other arm. Takes about 20 min of work and saves so much frustration of having no place to put the pins and 3/8 chain is the right size. I also mount a piece of rod, usually rebar near the top links on my bigger tractors to slide my adaptors for cat 2 to 1 on so they are always there. I will try to do a video and post it so everybody can see what I mean. If the manufacturers did these simple mods they would cost you way more than they do to build them yourself.
Yes please do a video. I’d like to see that. Thank you!!
On the new John Deere stick them down in the handle that adjusts the hight of the lift arm. There a hole on each side. That’s where I keep mine on the 5200 I have. It has holes just like your 5045 but it has chains to use as stabilizers and the lift arms flop out and hit the tires when nothing is hooked up and the tire knocks them out. So i started sticking them in the handle on the lift arm adjuster
My 2015 case IH farmall 55a has that on both arms.
Ben if you are worried about warranty. Weld some of those tabs for fence to plates of steel and bold them around the arms. You could prob use u bolts for axles.
My ford 5030 and 3930 have them. Yes I agree they all should have a place for them
Yeah I agree with you it would be nice if they would do that great videos God bless
Cut a chain link in-half. Weld it. Works great
Any tractor with a 3 point should have provision for storage of lynch pins. I attach mine to a few links of small chain and attach that to the 3pt arms. That way while hooking up an implement I never have to worry about dropping a pin in the weeds or forget where I set it lol.
The international harvester 56,66,86,and 88 series have them in the lower link extenders.
I agree with you. My 1979 jd 2240 has a place to hold 4 pins. My 1988 deutz allis 6275 has a place to store two of them pins. And my 2001 deutz farh agrolux 80 has a ring on either arm and I can fit 6 on each side. If I was you I would get a good sized washer and weld it and put your pins on. I was looking at new tractors and hardly any of them have them anymore. I totally agree with you especially as them pins have gotten up to 25 cents a piece
I have a 1969 John Deere 1020 that has two on each arm. I bought a pair a few years back and if memory serves me correct they were under $200 for the adjustable one and about $165 or so for the non-adjustable. I just looked one up on Amazon and the same arm was around $284 for the adjustable one, I bought mine from the local JD Dealer. Good luck on your search, I hope this info helps you!
I have an idea I’m going to try soon for this that won’t alter the arms from factory. We shall see. Thanks for watching
I agree with you 100%. My 1983 MF245 has them but the Kubota mx5400 doesn’t and it is very annoying. I’ve never had another tractor besides the 245 that had them. Having to dig around and find pins will make a preacher curse. You really hit a nerve on this topic 😂
It is so aggravating but could easily be added if manufacturers would just do it. Thanks for watching
AMEN !
Ben - my 1997 new holland 3930 has them, but my 2023 kubota m4-071d does not! Very handy!
I agree with you All tractor's should have it great video buddy 👍
Thank you for watching!
The OEM lift rm on my '53 Deere 40 had them but overt he years they were mangles and smashed until they didn't work anymore. My Ford 4000SU and my Massey 283 don't have anything like that. However as a work around, my 40, 283 and 4000SU all have the lift arm leveling rank on the right lift arm and the crank handle is curved and makes a perfect spot to hang linch pins in between use. But I agree with you, something so simple and would add zero cost to the manufacturing process should be common sense and included.
Yes on the old tractors I use and used the leveling box handle also. Thanks for watching!
Totally agree!! Kubota M4 ....none!
I have a 2008 Case IH JX 70 it has a place to put pins on the outside of the lift arms
I agree that that would be a easy and cheap add on. My Kubota L 3130 does not have one.
Great feature. Simple. One thing I like is telescoping draft links. Question. If you were given 75 thousand dollars and it had to be spent on another tractor which one would you get.
Thanks
Oh boy, put me on the spot why don’t you 😂! I would probably get a 5075E with the premium cab and radial tires, if that fits in the price which it should. Thanks for watching
You could pay the difference. Lol.
Take care. Rough weather here in Rocky Mount Virginia next week
@ stay safe, we’ve gotten a ton of rain and more to come this week. Thank you
Same
Another great video.
Thank you Joey! Hope you have a great weekend!
@khtractors you're welcome and you do the same
Things like that SHOULD be on every tractor... I am assuming someone out there would think it's a tow hook though! LOL! Also, the tool boxes on tractors SHOULD be big enough for an assortment of pins, a few tools, and easy to remove and clean out. If you think about a farmer investing $50-$65K for a basic utility tractor these days, the manufacturer could include a few $5 features for convenience.
They don’t focus enough on the basic needs and operator will have. Appreciate you watching!!
My antique Kubota B8200 has them. I thought you were going to plea for the European lift arm style with the open top claw, something I wish US manufacturers do.
Those are interesting, be nice to try out. Thanks for watching
My 1979 White 700 (80hp) has that
Good deal! Thanks for watching
I like it Ben but my Kubota doesn’t have that either
So simple but very handy to have. Thanks for watching
@@khtractors I agree 100%
There are nice to have
Back in the day our Ford 6600,7700, and 8210 have that ,it was a bit higher on the arms and just remember our Massey Ferguson 3505 have it too
At one time manufacturers cared about these little features I believe. Thanks for watching
@@khtractors your right on that,I remember a dairy farmer friend of mine,who had a big dairy he brought a Case Magnum 7130,and all it did was ruin a mixer wagon and he ordered the tractor bare back or no three point hitch,like you said,I think there were a lot of options back then
@ definitely. Just like my 245, it was offered as a standard version, orchard and vineyard model. They offered something for everyone.
My JD 2040, 5065E, 4230, 6110 and 6410 has them
Does your 5065E have the same arms as the 5045? Thanks for watching
My arms on the 5065E are like yours on the 5045
Okay 👍!
My JD 790 has them and my Ford 1910 has them. If I get another tractor without them I will add them.
One penny to the manufactures is a big deal and they do cry about that penny.
I think you’re right. Thanks for watching
Yeah my 7330 John Deere has that but it has a box on it
Thank you for sharing that and watching!
my little 3038e has that feature
My John Deere 5103 has it but my 5075e doesn’t and I always forget it doesn’t when I go to hook something up
My 4707 has place for them
Good deal! Thanks for watching
My 1993 3930 ford has them
It is a head scratcher as to why one 5E has it and the other does not.
Yeah you’d think they would put it on all of them. Thanks for watching
Case 50 a 2022 has them
Great! Thanks for watching
My Kubota M7040 doesn’t have them but my Massey Ferguson 4707 does have them
i have a 135 Massey Ferguson that has those
Are 820 John Deere got them
Good! Thanks for watching
New Holland 2016 has them
Good! Thanks for watching
A hole wouldn't be good as the pin wouldn't have room to flip the ring over and hold.
I’d have to take a grinder and notch out just a bit. That’s how they have the 5045. Thanks for watching
My Kubota has loops on the arms. Unsure of the New Holland. Never looked but never unhook the disc mower from it. My internationals and farmalls have the fast hitch Simple design they never should have gotten away from
My ford 4630 and my mf 230 gas has it.
I’m surprised the 230 has it since the 245 doesn’t but they are different lift arms where mines an orchard. I use the crank handle on the leveling box to hang pins on it. Thanks for watching
I wondered why now I know lol
Did you just figure it out from the video? It’s so nice to have! Thanks for watching
My M7060 didn't have it or a horn I have a TYM t494 50hp and it has both. If TYM can include things like this on there tractors why can't Deere and Kubota when you are paying thousands more for them.
Have a good day
Ford 1320 ford 5900
I'm at 2:00 and I still don't have a clue what this fella is talking about. He's wasted all this time mumbling about "it", but hasn't told us what It is.
You’re only one mumbling about me mumbling. But I appreciate you commenting!
