Grew up working on a farm that had a G. Would pull a new holland baler and a wagon up hill with the front wheels off the ground and never miss a beat. Lots of torque in those old JDs
The stupidity in this comment section is astounding!! Quit hating on the guy! He has Parkinson's and is just trying to have some fun! Also he's pulling on concrete SO IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW THE TIRES ARE MOUNTED!!!!
That's cool seeing Gene and Troy having fun pulling and spotting, that's a cool g i ran dewayne kroms once on asphalt at northfield sh pull man what a rush a lot of things have to happen all at once to be competitive pulling dead weight
Cool to view, painful to watch when you own a classic like that one. Edit: how is it that I missed that this G had a power steering conversation kit on it?
Treads pointed forward is a self cleaning feature that's effective in mud.not needed for pulling. You guys got to lighten up and address things you are familiar with! Turn down the mean K?
Word! I'm looking at those rear tires, as an L.A. Graphic Designer, but you can actually see how each tire, mounted with the tread reversed could theoretically "lay down" two points of rubber impact on the ground per tire per tread row. That's super effective at a Tractor Pull Show. Glad it's legal! But, haha try dat same shlit down on a farm in a muddy winter field, and you'll surely get slapped on your ass with your entire crop! Rear Fenders anyone?
Isn't the pull point suppose to be below the center line of the rear axle to keep the front from coming up? I've heard of tractors lifting up and over killing the driver.
@@g.c.farmer5616 it looked (from what I could see) that it was low enough. That's why I was little puzzled that the tractor lifted the front end. My tractor driving is quite limited (though I spent countless hours sitting on my grandpa's little Ford tractor pretending), but I did drive my uncle's Ford with a too-big plow on the three-point hitch. When I very slowly let out the clutch pedal, I could not keep the front end on the ground. Driving it up the lane to take it down the "black top road" a hundred yards to the driveway was near impossible ... it wouldn't steer and wanted to go straight across the road into the ditch on the other side. I would've really liked having a farm. BTW, love your John Deere.
there's a website called TractorData.com that has almost a complete archive of all tractors across all brands, and gives specifications for each different model
There are multiple reasons for running your tires backwards. To anybody calling people idiots and assholes for doing so are just showing how small minded and idiotic they, themselves are. Anybody who truly knows their shit would know that he's more likely to sell his tires if the front edge wasn't ground off. Also, if you talk shit about pullers who pull on anything other than dirt you should really just shut up. I mean, if the only thing you can do with dirt is pull on it you have no room to judge anyone else.
Either direction you have to grind the front edge off and run proper air pressure to get them to bite on cement, it’s up to individual what direction the prefer to run
Hey! What jus' happened with that badass G? Did he jus' pop a wheelie, then freaked out and quit? Looks like his JD Model G had more than enough pullin' power for that heavy load. His big Rear Wheels, alone, would have helped prevented him from slippin' to a crawl at the end of his Tractor Pull Match! Of course I ain't climbed aboard a lesser powered JD A since 1994 but I believe I would have eased off the clutch a bit slower but still at massive throttle. I figure this would cause the JD G Power Brute to "bounce" just a little bit (showing us all some front tire tread for a moment) then let loose the clutch all the way and hang on!
That's not a G clutch shaft, more like off a 70. I like the power steering. I have many hours on a G from the 50s and early 60s. Sure was nice when I graduated to the 70. Still have two G's in the pasture.
Man NOTHING sounds like a "G" or as good to me. Unless it's a Pratt & Whitney R-2800CB-16 airplane engine. A "G" just has something extra in it's sound that even other John Deere two cylinders don't have.
Nope.. that's my dad! Taught me how to drive that... I won all but 5 pulls that year in Heavyweight class with that tractor... He has Parkinson's disease and struggles...
I recognized the tick in his hand. I hope he is doing well and its cool to see him staying involved with doing what he loves - hopefully he will get to do it for a long time!
This is my tractor and this is my dad with Parkinson's disease... for your comment on why it's taking my dad so long to back up... he has lists of trouble... but as long as he is smiling and enjoying this, I'm gonna make sure he can no matter how "long" it takes him to back up...
Troy Miller is that why it has added power steering and also aint there a vid of really pullin it im mean the just moved it not really a pull. i wanna hear the girl talken
Thank you Troy for honoring your father by allowing him to drive the JD.Nothing will mean more to him then these precious moments he is experiencing. Took my father squirrel hunting a few times after he became sick.He had to take a folding chair into the woods but he enjoyed being out in nature so much.Do what you can while you can and don't worry about people saying stuff God bless
Nice video!! And to all the hot shot name callers and people cussing others you sound very uneducated and foolish. Don't be jealous because this man has a nice machine and you have a Lowes or Home Depot special sitting in the garage.
This my dad and has Parkinson's disease... He had trouble but enjoys pulling so I don't care how long it takes for him to "square" up... if he's happy and still CAN pull and still be ALIVE to enjoy it...
+57fitter Good job man don't let it slow him down. Good to see that he is still out doing what he loves to do even with Parkinsons disease. Has he checked into a deep brain stimulator?? Good luck and all the best guys!!JEFF
the guy standing betweenthe tractor and the stone boat doesn't know much about JD two bangers, if the low reduction bearing seizes up, he is a goner or hurting bad.
Larry Smith Narrow front end was cheaper (We are talking wars & depression, price _was_ an issue in going from horses to tractors. It's amazing they had the innovation they did, for the times & hardships of the era of these tractors.) Corn pickers. You can't mount a cornpicker on a wide front tractor. Front (mid-mount, really) cultivators. Some newer designs worked with wide-front, but early models only worked with narrow front. Also you could cultivate 2 rows, turn on the end & come back in the next 2 rows. A wide front could not turn short enough, often couldn't make it in 4 rows. Ran down more end rows trying to turn around. Manuverablity. Can turn _much_ shorter with most narrow fronts compared to wide fronts. Try backing a 4-wheel wagon with a wide front - it's easy with a good narrow front. Loaders. Those early hydraulic systems were poor. Used very small buckets for dirt & manure, all they could lift. So the narrow front could follow along behind the narrow bucket & get something hauled out. Wide front would be wider than the bucket, the wheels rode up on the sides & you couldn't get anything done. Dependable. Early wide fronts were all thin & spidery & had all those tie-rod contraptions. Got a bad rep for falling apart, needing more attention. Added weight to the tractor. Row crop is all about adjustable wheel widths to match the row widths & being tall enough to clear a growing crop. You obviously were not in row-crop country of the midwest. :) There really weren't many of those N tractors around here - they didn't turn short, they didn't have clearence for the crop to go under the frame, they couldn't fit a row crop cultivator..... I see a lot of support & fond memories of the N's in the south & east on these forums. Really much different out here in the midwest. In my region the H & M IHC tractors are the ones that hold fond memories for many. Ford was that little thing a few folks had that did some utility jobs, but not real work. Found this on Internet. Hope it was helpful.
@@danielbigger490 Well I learned something. I learned to plow and plant on a Ford 8N when I was 12. It got the job done. As far as turning, if you stood on the inside brake it would spin like a top. In the southeast we planted corn and cotton primarily. Oats was sown, not planted. That little 4 cylinder got the job done.
I only wish he would have gotten a better hook then was able to keep pulling as for you guys with only bad to say I'll tell you this but for the grace of God there go I,,now give that some thought please.
If the disability makes him a bad driver then entering a sport where driving is paramount is not a good idea. If he gets out of control and runs over your kid are you still going to have the same attitude? Didn’t think so.
Hell Yeah! Just like Shane walking into a Saloon with no dang Gunsight on his big Colt pistol. He was ready to take anyone out up close and personal (Shane ain't got time to be aiming at Quail in the woods, Baby). That JD G was there for the Pull, not to Plow on that day. It's Traction Time!
That's my G!!!!! It's a 1949, it's .125 over, has a High Torque Cam, head milled ALOT! And carb is bored! 75 horse! Love this G!!!

backwards tires are usually better on hard surface and it sharpens the the normally front edges for when you do flip them around.

Cool to view, painful to watch when you own a classic like that one.
Edit: how is it that I missed that this G had a power steering conversation kit on it?
Might be just a gear reducer, some circle track racers use them as a speed increaser but they can be flipped for reduction
Beautiful. Piece of American history.
May youlive long and prosper!nice tractor !
Those quadruple wheels must give it better ability to prevent tipping over. G stands for great. Gool old JD rides again.
Where was the pull - I saw 2 minutes of hooking up and what looked like about 10 feet of pull. Is the video corrupt ?
Cool 😎 The Harley Davison of tractors!!!

20 inch high on all tractors in competition front end came up cause he’s pulling most likely over 200% easily
Tip over / wheelie bars would of stop it from going over
"and no. 379's pull was 3 ft. 10 inches. let's hear for it larry, coming all the way from west mulesport mississippi"
sometimes they grip better on concrete and or asphalt, and if they ever sale them there easier to sale if the front edge is still on them.
If i was him after the tractor did a wheelie id go check my pants lmfao
if you edited this clip from 2:10 on it would go more viral
Why are the rear tires reversed ?
Fergieman
Dood zonde van die mooie John deere
I didn't think or know that the G ever had duals, did you put them on yourself or did that tractor come with them originally?
Are those 15.5 38s on 20" inch wheels?
farmermatt629 I believe 14.9 on 15 inch rims
This is my tractor and my father driving... 14-9-38s on 16" rims
dont remember the specs on the motor, not real big maybe 66 to 70 hp. new camera 1st video,i had it zoomed in and didnt know.
there's a website called TractorData.com that has almost a complete archive of all tractors across all brands, and gives specifications for each different model
The people who dislike are just jealous of the G
That's sad to see but goddamn the man still has himself A (.T.RA.C.T.O.R.) I'm impressed. I didn't think it do it. My condolances to you sir.

Dead weight pull right? Just a few feet?
yes they also do it in other countries also and you should see some of the home made rigs they come up with
The ol 2 cylinders do better on dead wieght sleds that take real torque
Looks like it goes either one of two ways. You either break an axel or your neck.
Sounds better than a Harley
