The ##10 series John Deere tractors were a game changer when they came on the market. In South Texas where I grew up, Farmall tractors ruled the market for years. People didn't like the hand clutch on the two-cylinder John Deere tractors, but then the 10 series diesels came out, and South Texas became John Deere territory.
Enjoy you videos JT and appreciate your editing style and the time you take to move the camera around to get different angles. The rooftop view of tilling the field was cool, bet that was fun to set up. Keep doing what you do! 🇺🇸🤘🏻
I agree. Making videos myself I know there is a lot of moving and setting up to catch all the angles to make the audience feel as if they are part of each action. I really appreciated that in this video as well. I know how easy it can be to say I don’t have to add this one and he did it. He caught it all and it was really fantastic.
I know many people aren’t keen on the cab, but you very rarely see on of that series of JD’s with a cab, so it makes this one just a little different from the rest of them, and shows a little bit of tractor history and development. Big 👍 from the UK.
neat tractor, and that disk was working nicely too, we usually put a chisel shank with a sweep in the center of the disk on older tandems to get that little strip
JT I would think 5th gear would be fast enough 4th gear is also good. I always plowed corn ground in 5th and sod in 4th it did a nicer job . We disced with an R JD 13ft. We used a 4020 JD and a 4030 JD .
I've got a 3020 gas JD that sat for 15 years and my neighbor called me and needed a tractor as his smaller diesel was not in service at the time and asked to borrow our 3020 (if we still had it) well....I told him I drained the gas and changed the oil before I put it away 15 years prior and forgot about it. He showed up with 10 or 20 gallons of gas and a new battery. It started quick and used it for 2 weeks without one single issue, well, he did remind me that it does go through quite a bit of gas - ha ha ha. Yup, that it does! Not bragging on John Deere.....I'm just say'n!
After a little cough and a fart it just "ran like a Deere"! Motor sounds really good and it pulls that implement so easily; another great find. After watching some of your countrymen prep for seeding earlier this year with their new debt machines (IVTs, electronics and solenoids for everything) I'm sure a few of then still waiting for service calls might feel a bit jealous. Thanks from Eyre Peninsula, South Australia.
I know a lot of farmers that use compressed air they also make a tool now you can hook to your air compressor it spins on the inside of the air filter and blows it out with compressed air
I miss that cab view, I disked and bailed every season on a 5020, I think that line of tractors was John Deeres crowning achievement, I know people like to straight pipe these tractors but i think it sounds perfect with the stock muffler
It took JD a ridiculously long time before they got with the filter times. We're talking every manufacture calling them out in their 1970's sales materials before JD decided to make filters accessible and to flip them all over as to not dump the filter contents.
Excellent video JT :) also matinne up tractors , combines or anything fun to do and learning and saved another tractor for sure ! Plus testing on feild work proved you got winner one and my dad used tell me put 100 ml of GM Automatic Transmission fluid also grey bottle of STP Total Treatment fuel injection and carb cleaner in fuel tank to help running smoothly on engine to for each desiel tractors on farm ! Also yes would keep tractor forever now and use for lots farming work too and fun times ahead! Think some nice new back tires and headlights to get working you be working night too!
@@jtsbarnngrill6873 yes if get set a of Good Year Dyna Torque 2 ones back and front for Good Year to ! That tractor be super fast and grip everywhere! My dad ran Good Year Dyna Torque 2 on drive on his International 3 desiel fuel motor tractor and combine to no problem that in 1990's!
Hey,JT,,good to see ya. Shes a puller. Now,,if the weather is as rainy there as here in West Central Wisconsin,,,stick her in a mud hole and see what shes got!!! Great video!!
Blow them outer filters out. I have done it all of the time for 26 years. Haven’t dusted an engine yet. Still the inner one on the tractors I run. I never put air through the secondary one to clean it though. One of the best starting old john Deere tractor I’ve ever seen though.
Right on! I’ve been doing it for years myself but last time I did on video you’d have thought I hurt someone’s feelings 😆😆. She is a great starter too!
with the tractor sitting so long, another oil change wouldn't hurt anything after a couple heat and load cycles such as this. you already have a surplus of oil :D
Big thing with the 531 Deeres is to let them warm up before loading them, otherwise they have a tendency to spin bearings. Getting all the gauges to work looks to be next on the list..........
@@jtsbarnngrill6873what about fuel and tachometer ? To me oil, temp and fuel matters the most i ran out of fuel 2 times in the middle of the road on my way home because the fuel gauge was not working after finding out why it didn't work which is because the connections for the wires on the sender unit was all rusted away after replacing the unit it worked a lot better tachometer depends on, i mean sure it is important to know the engine rpms yes but when you want to set the rpms for the pto speed you need it to work well, i replaced the cable on monday since it was vibrating every rev and causing the needle to jump all over the place, the tractor i did all this work is a 1985 Case 1294 😁
Hello everyone good vidéo jt's barn good jobs with a beast tractor an operator friend of my boss and I have one in repower 8v 71t and 3 5020 with repower 1 with 8v 71t 2 with 8v92 and 3 with 12v 71t in Alsace in France
Greetings from Finland, That 5010 is unfamiliar to me, but I have tried the JD5020 once. A friend has one in his museum in working condition. That JD cabin of yours looks like a terrible invention. I have always had MF tractors myself, but such a monster JD is made for heavy work. Thanks for the good video
Not sure if it has ever been told before but I'd be interested in the history of your farm. Is it a family operation that is now yours or did you buy it or what? How many acres do you have all together?
This was my uncles farm. He passed and I had the opportunity to purchase it in 2012. The farm was split 3 ways, I got the house and 5 acres, one cousin got 60 and another cousin got 40. I’m slowly trying to get it all back, but that’s easier said than done. I have about 140 that I farm all together. If you go back 3-4 vids I take a crop tour of all my fields and kind of explain everything I do. It was the I’ve been busy week video
Shit. I've been cleaning air filters wrong my whole life then. Bang em til they clean out lol. They make a filter cleaning setup that spins around when you put it inside an air filter.
the 60s and 70s operators manuals showed washing your paper filters in the sink! and warned you about "do not bang on a tire." Recently, a social media video short showed using a firecracker... :)
Very nice country. I was raised on small farm in the thumb. Learned how to wrench at a young age.. Like your content . Thanks keep up the good work, Boe
I ran one when i was a kid. It was a pullin horse !!! The 5010 was a piece of JD history. The trouble with any machinery is that people are just getting dumber.
Not sure if you can do a spin on filter conversion on those engines or not. Guess it isn't too bad having to change it like it is. It ain't like you are doing it very often. That tractor will pull that harrow in 5 or 6 gear...
How come that disc leaves the strip in the middle is it missing a blade in the middle or something out of alignment tractor sounds great thanks for sharing
It needs to have the front blades pushed a little closer together. I pieced that disc from a couple of doners. It’s not great but it’ll chop stuff up 😉
Yes it is. It’s not a great disc, and seems like parts are non existent for it but with a little engineering I’ve made it work-minus the strip it leaves lol. But it was 0 dollars sitting in the weeds 😉
My buddy had a 5020 it was a beast. I'm glad to see someone that still farms the old way with old equipment.
It’s the only way I know!

As did the rest of the country.....
Yeah what’s funny though is John Deere passed farm all in sales we’ll still making the 2 cylinders
Agree and disagree...the 4010 was one of Deere's sorriest tractors
I love the snipette at the ends of your videos!!!! Cracks me up!! Thanks JT
Thanks for staying around till the very end and noticing!
I second that. Always watch to the very end for the fun surprises. 😂
Gotta love it when you can save ole iron from the scrap iron heap. The problem is I love all ole iron tractors.....
I hear that! 😉
WORKED FOR A FARMER WHO BOUGHT A 5010 AND 2 4010S THE YEAR THEY CAME OUT. SOUTHEAST MONTANA. FOR A YOUNG KID IT WAS GREAT.
That tractor runs very smoothly! 🙂
My first tractor was a 5020 John Deere. We pulled 20 ft off set disc and 18 ft Chisel. We had the power to set it down and do the job!
Right on! This one seems to be a puller! Some new back skins sure wouldn’t hurt though lol
JD 5010 rides again! Enjoyed watching JT !
Thanks! She’s a runner!
I pulled 22 foot ih #55 chisel plow with 5010 in 5th gear for many years. It loved it.
I feel like that will pull way beyond what you’d think a 120hp tractor should!
@jtsbarnngrill6873 yet when they came out most farmers were disappointed by what they could pull.
@@ivanmoreau1798 There's been some advancement in tires since those came out. Wondering if that puts the power down better now?
Nice to see the old 5010 working again. Thanks for the Videos.
Another success JT 🇺🇸🇬🇧👍

It’s been growing on me lol. Still torn as to what to do with it 😉
@@jtsbarnngrill6873add ac and heat and make a video series 😂
Great videos jt. Good content awesome to see old iron up and running/working the land. COOL!!
neat tractor, and that disk was working nicely too, we usually put a chisel shank with a sweep in the center of the disk on older tandems to get that little strip
Great Job JT, on getting ur 5010 JD Tractor up and running great.
Thanks! I think it’ll be a good runner!
JT I would think 5th gear would be fast enough 4th gear is also good. I always plowed corn ground in 5th and sod in 4th it did a nicer job . We disced with an R JD 13ft. We used a 4020 JD and a 4030 JD .

You parked it the right way! That always helps one to start after sitting
Two of my favourite tractors for sound and watching there power 5010 and 5020.
Looks like you got another good buy and a keeper.
Thanks! I have to agree, that 531 is a great sounding engine!
Dont forget to change Micron inner air filter, presuming it has one, most important filter, not many folk know.
That actually didn’t have one. Just the main filter
After a little cough and a fart it just "ran like a Deere"! Motor sounds really good and it pulls that implement so easily; another great find. After watching some of your countrymen prep for seeding earlier this year with their new debt machines (IVTs, electronics and solenoids for everything) I'm sure a few of then still waiting for service calls might feel a bit jealous.

I’ll bet they are! The old Deere is gonna be a good addition around here!
I know a lot of farmers that use compressed air they also make a tool now you can hook to your air compressor it spins on the inside of the air filter and blows it out with compressed air
That would be handy!
Fecken savage power in that tractor JT 👌👌👌👌
Right on!
This tractor will look the part once this goofy cab has gone. I love this beast.
I miss that cab view, I disked and bailed every season on a 5020, I think that line of tractors was John Deeres crowning achievement, I know people like to straight pipe these tractors but i think it sounds perfect with the stock muffler
I agree! That engine has the perfect rumble without the bark of a straight pipe
I always liked the sound and the ride of that tractor
Great video! Love to see the old iron being put to work again. Also enjoy your sense of humor,the ending had me laughing pretty hard.😂
😆😆. Excellent!!
The 5010-5020 has to be the sexiest tractor ever made. With an honorable mention to the 820-830…
JT, NICE TO SEE THAT YOU HAVE FUN DOING WHAT YOU DO 😊😊😊😊
You mist the 6030.
Throw some duals on it and make it look even better and im not even a john deere fan lol
Duals would really make that a bad a$$!
6030
Holy cow does that ole johnny sound good 👍 wow !!!
Just started watching your ch, lot to catch up on..... Thanks for saving ole iron....
Great! I’m glad to have you along!
Nice!
Love the channel name. Hope I get to stop by for a steak at the barn sometime. Cheers!
😉 thanks!
This was a great video. Enjoyed it all the way through. Made me wish I had a disc as well.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed !
It took JD a ridiculously long time before they got with the filter times. We're talking every manufacture calling them out in their 1970's sales materials before JD decided to make filters accessible and to flip them all over as to not dump the filter contents.
Right! Seems like there could have been better filter configuration on this one 😉
My late little brother an I had a toy 5020 we plowed thousands of acres of GA clay until we broke the drawbar.I still have the tractor.
They stopped using that filter setup in 1968, the next filter design is still used today
@@jakepardall2991what year is this tractor so, I didn't think it was that old I was thinking maybe 80s.
Always loved the 5010 and 5020. A beast of a tractor.

Hey when you started up that tractor after the diesel fuel filters were changed you know what song came to my mind staying alive
Nice 😆
Great video the John Deere looks nice
Hell ya!! Another back from the grave! Nice job!!!
Thanks again!
That is a good looking tractor
That 5010 runs mint.
Excellent video JT :) also matinne up tractors , combines or anything fun to do and learning and saved another tractor for sure ! Plus testing on feild work proved you got winner one and my dad used tell me put 100 ml of GM Automatic Transmission fluid also grey bottle of STP Total Treatment fuel injection and carb cleaner in fuel tank to help running smoothly on engine to for each desiel tractors on farm ! Also yes would keep tractor forever now and use for lots farming work too and fun times ahead! Think some nice new back tires and headlights to get working you be working night too!
Right on! Definitely needs some tires, many good points!
@@jtsbarnngrill6873 yes if get set a of Good Year Dyna Torque 2 ones back and front for Good Year to ! That tractor be super fast and grip everywhere! My dad ran Good Year Dyna Torque 2 on drive on his International 3 desiel fuel motor tractor and combine to no problem that in 1990's!
Interesting adds on your page sir
Keep up the good work
Thanks!
But I have no control over what ads pop up.
Hey JT,,,just watched a 4166 in really good shape sell at auction for $5000. Pretty cheap for a running, moving, operating collector's piece.
Hey,JT,,good to see ya. Shes a puller. Now,,if the weather is as rainy there as here in West Central Wisconsin,,,stick her in a mud hole and see what shes got!!! Great video!!
It’s been a wet bugger around here 😉
Go around it
Let it dry
Very good Video 👍 👍
She pulls good nice old 5010

@@jtsbarnngrill6873 world is full of damn opinions. Hahahaha. Nobody ever shows up to do the work or bring the free parts for a guy though. 🤔
with the tractor sitting so long, another oil change wouldn't hurt anything after a couple heat and load cycles such as this. you already have a surplus of oil :D
Yes! That will be in its near future
Great job, i really like your collection of tractors, the steiger being my favorite but anyway i enjoy watching your videos.
Thanks!
Another great video!
Thoroughly enjoyed it!
If you go in the house smelling horrible you will probably be sleeping in one of the tractors!😅😂😊
Very true!
Your a young pup side of that Tractor 😂
Big thing with the 531 Deeres is to let them warm up before loading them, otherwise they have a tendency to spin bearings. Getting all the gauges to work looks to be next on the list..........

We blow are air filters with the air compressor
We had one growing up, it definitely needs duals, and they were heavy in the front
Good running tractor didn't even grunt one time
Another great video! What a great find !
Thanks!
You need to put some on that fine ass 5010
Nice square body chevy!
Thanks 👍
Great video!
Hello everyone good vidéo jt's barn good jobs with a beast tractor
an operator friend of my boss and I have one in repower 8v 71t and 3 5020 with repower 1 with 8v 71t 2 with 8v92 and 3 with 12v 71t in Alsace in France
It’s your best tractor on your farm now
Another great video, nice old tractor.
Thanks!!
Back in the working fleet
Really sweet find, simple old machine, at 125hp anyhow love your channel
Glad you enjoy it!
Thanks for the video 👍

Great video, I bet that 1155 was pretty mad when drove right by 😂
She gets a little testy 😆
Did he just step out the back of tractor after unfolding disk? How slick is that.
Woohoo the Legend back
With all those good tractors, you'll have to find more ground to farm, and some drivers
A great tractor but bigger wheels on the front but it works
Jt gonna be needing to build some storage and a shop if he keeps this up . Grow jt grow.
I need a new shop in a bad way 😆
Amazing it does not smoke at all!
Suprises me too!
The old green machine works pretty good
J T nothing runs like a deere PERIOD.
That used to be true but now they just wait until patents are up and steal others ideas.

Now you need to add an a/c system to the old girl, the cost would be around $16,00 for the complete kit but would make those hot days more enjoyable.
Ac would make for a comfortable ride!
Shit. I've been cleaning air filters wrong my whole life then. Bang em til they clean out lol. They make a filter cleaning setup that spins around when you put it inside an air filter.
I guess I have been too 😆. Let’s just say what I don’t do on camera stays what I “don’t “ do on camera lol
Good morning young man, much easier to use a leaf blower and stick inside? Found that works very well sir. Love the videos and keep them coming sir.
Will do!
the 60s and 70s operators manuals showed washing your paper filters in the sink! and warned you about "do not bang on a tire." Recently, a social media video short showed using a firecracker... :)
Was it me or did putting that old motor under intense load for awhile help clean up some of the smoke emitting?
Sure did! She needed to work the cobwebs out!
I vote taking cab off
You should get yourself a waste oil burner for your new shop. I betcha have a bunch of used oil with all this equipment.
I could make good use of that!
JT,
New subscriber. What part of Michigan is your farm? Boe
Northern east side
Very nice country. I was raised on small farm in the thumb. Learned how to wrench at a young age.. Like your content . Thanks keep up the good work, Boe
That would drive me nuts, that disk leaving a strip in the middle 🙈
I’ll get to it when I get to it 😆
He was only in 3rd and 4th put it in 5th it's a wing disc
125 HP rating
First I said leave the cab but I believe I agree the cab needs to come off
It just doesn’t look great on there 😉
nice sound
That tractor does have a nice little rumble to it!
Lol😂 a little bigger, that's what she said!
I ran one when i was a kid. It was a pullin horse !!! The 5010 was a piece of JD history. The trouble with any machinery is that people are just getting dumber.
Not sure if you can do a spin on filter conversion on those engines or not. Guess it isn't too bad having to change it like it is. It ain't like you are doing it very often. That tractor will pull that harrow in 5 or 6 gear...
Yeah, that wasn’t bad at all. I think she’d pull in 5 or 6 th pretty well!
👍
How come that disc leaves the strip in the middle is it missing a blade in the middle or something out of alignment tractor sounds great thanks for sharing
It needs to have the front blades pushed a little closer together. I pieced that disc from a couple of doners. It’s not great but it’ll chop stuff up 😉
Mount a Cultivator sweep in the middle
Blow in side out
Sounds good pulling the discs. Are those discs a set of Allis Chalmers 2300 series? Sure look like it.
Yes it is. It’s not a great disc, and seems like parts are non existent for it but with a little engineering I’ve made it work-minus the strip it leaves lol. But it was 0 dollars sitting in the weeds 😉
What did the disc harrow say to the Tractor....... Pull meba little closer John Deere....
Good job! Paint it, sell it, and fund the next project.
