- Danny worked on changing a lot of bolts and nuts on the 1950 Cub Farmall tractor. He put it together for the first time and cranked it. He isn't finished but he is getting close. Danny takes the cub for a ride.

I pray Danny you live a long life. You have so much knowledge that needs to be written down and made into a book for future generations. I worry about our future generations.
I love how methodical you are when fixing the tractor and other things. And the way you explain why and how. I dislike our "throw away" mindset. My grandparents were fixers. I'm so fortunate to have been raised by them to learn to fix and not throw away. I raised my children to be the same and appreciate the old things. I wish more parents would do the same.
Great job Danny,most people don’t know just how many vents and lubrication points are really on older equipment, God Bless
Good morning y’all beating the heat this morning.
Trying to.
Perfect way to end the video...watching Danny driving his Cub...enjoying the fruits of his labor. Obviously a labor of love.
I enjoy these videos since I farm with old equipment and alot of the equipment most people wouldn't know how to maintain and keep in top running order. Thank you for the info on these older pieces.
I love my 50 cub. Use it to plow our 2 gardens.
The look on Danny’s face when it started was priceless
Morning!! Ya'll should try Draft Horses. Not as fun to work on, but multi purpose. Sustainable too! Your doin' a real nice job on that tractor!🐴🚜
Draft horse's are way to expensive. And require a constant feed source. Plus extra land for them.
@@DeepSouthHomestead True! But when the OPEC oil runs dry......
Whew lot of work. Good job. That is so great. Ahh hahaha Wanda said she gets her she she’d back. Lol. Happy for you both.
Love these farmall cub videos Danny
It’s good thing you know how to rebuild that tractor. Very nice video keep some of us old guys on how to
Repair these tractor’s. Your dad must have learn you lot on these tractor.
Great conversation
Lovely to watch - reminds me of my Father in the sixties.
Just got done restoring my 1947 Farmall cub
Alright it's great to see them being brought back.
Clovehitch a piece of leather shoelace around that steering shaft to act as a drip stop. Maybe in one of those lower grooves in the shaft.
Not a bad idea.
It's so important what you say because that's how these seals are getting ruined in the first place! Somehow I don't think that cub spends much time in the rain but worse things than milky oil could happen.
🌞 Good morning Danny and Wanda another good video that torque tool kit came in real Handy for cleaning tiny holes and hard to reach places.
Those are acetylene torch tip cleaners, many other uses too.
Those lil Cubs were always a terrific little tractor I've always like them those and the baby Alice Charlmers and I'm glad to say the one we had to work on we came up with all sorts of things steering seal replacements and we added oil resistant o rings to the outside the steering shaft to stop water intrusion of the steering gearbox and the vented plug yall cleaned our had been lost and replaced with a brass plug undrilled and I drilled the top of it and put in a zerkfitting for grease that had no retention ball and spring and made a crimp in cap that kept out water and allowed the plug to breathing and out due to temp changes from the thermal cycling of the radiator. Love yalls videos
O my I have a 59 farm all cub I have to restore from ground up this is inspirational
When you put the new seal in steering box , On ones with shafts like that , i put a fat O ring on the shaft a inch or two before gear box . Then the water drips off the o ring and the seal does not see as much water. But indoor kept stuff does not see as much water
Beautiful old tractor, thanks for sharing. 🙏
The difference between men and boys, is the size of their toys!
Love that club!
Danny: I do NOT see other tractor refurbishing channels directing the owners attention to the fine details that You cover so eloquently in your videos. Thank You for sharing and taking the time to explain to the new owner of older equipment the many benefits of getting it right in the first place. You are also most fortunate to have such an understanding and helpful spouse to work along side of you in the restoration process. Greetings from Ontario, Canada.
Mud daubers and some species of spiders are pretty good at clogging vent holes as well.
Good jop Danny clean clean
Really good maintenance. I can't wait till you k20a2 swap it !
Great job! Enjoyed learning
Very useful knowledge.
Club seem to be a good little tractor 🚜, 🖐️ y'all
Good Job
I have a Farmall Super A that is just about the same year as your Cub. Thanks.
It’s beautiful Danny. You did an awesome job on it. I’d love to be able to have one some day.
The engine sounds like a sewing machine, so precise, quiet, and rhythmic. Nice detail work on all those bolts and accessories. We are all looking forward to how it works.
Really enjoying this series. Your cub was a teenager when my Massey was born but the maintenance issues are similar.
I would've never known.....a teeny tiny vent hole 🤯
Looks like fun
Just love your easy going personality and attention to detail, God Bless
I just love this Farmall Cub, love driving them, they are just really wonderful! I hope to find a Farmall A to buy and refurbish. Those are some of the best ideas on refurbishments I have heard. This little girl is ready for the next parade!
It's good idea to use anti-seize on all the threads too 🍻
I did on anything that gets hot. Everything else that I could I used stainless or galvanized.
Wow great job. Your amazing. Looking great. Good morning Danny and Wanda XOX 🌹❤️💕😇🙌🏻👏🏻🔥. Happy Saturday have a great day.
Congratulations!! It looks awesome so happy for you both. Danny gets his toy and Miss Wanda gets her kitchen. Air hugs from California!
Hey y'all I am so happy to see the explanation of the engineering involved when these were manufactured. These were the small key bits of knowledge that made the tractor run the way it was engineered to do. The prudent farmers and mechanics, haha the farmer was most likely the mechanic, knew to take the extra step to do stuff right the first time. In the military we had the PMCS, which is Preventative Maintenance Checks and Services system. The driver, the unit level maintenance and organizational maintenance each were listed on a chart with the frequency intervals of how often different things needed to happen to keep the equipment running at the peak performance. This is why so many vehicles from the 1940's and 1950's are still in use today and working just fine. bye now
I like how your replacing all of the bolts!
Oh yeah I'm picky about bolts and nuts.
Wanda, your comments are hilarious!
Very nice, not sure who is happier, Danny or Wanda! Happy Homesteading
This video came at the perfect time because I'm rebuilding mine right now. Thanks for the info 👍
Yeah Danny that crescent wrench can use for 1,000,001 things but what chaps me is when they’ve used it for a hammer LOL
Somewhere, I’ve seen a battery clamp with a quick lock lever on it. Maybe replacing the bolt with one of those levers from a newer bicycle seat?
Cool 😎
good job danny.... really enjoyed the series!
I’d take a drill bit a clean it out Danny, o’Danny get A DRILL BIT LOL!! That seal came on the tractor I’d can assure 👍❤️
An air impact helps with rusty bolts a lot, the hammering and vibrations help to shock the rust off and break the nuts and bolts loose. I'd say 7 out of 10 times, a rusty bolt broken off by a ratchet or a wrench wouldn't have snapped if an impact was used. Nice old tractor you have there...
I’ve rebuilt and worked in quite a few old Cubs and other farmalls. Every one has had the hole plugged up. My dad was a welder and taught me that tip cleaners come in handy for the same thing you’re doing as well as cleaning carburetor orifices. Sometime you have to use a little hand drill bit. My opinion is that a plugged vent is the cause of the lower seal going out, causing a big headache. I usually clean the hole and leave a piece of wire in the hole while painting the tractor to keep from painting it closed. I have also come across a lot of tractors with the plugged hole that were running grease instead of oil in the steering housing, due to the lower seal leaking so bad that oil would just run out. Regular grease doesn’t keep the steering gears lined, though. Corn head grease will buy some time and I will give some lubrication.
👍🏽 gr8 vids
Morning y’all
Those steering sectors originally had oil in them. Over the years the shafts wear by the seals. As a result of this the oil would leak out. A lot of guys fill the box with corn head grease because it flows well but doesn’t leak out. It’s a solution that doesn’t require replacing the shafts.
The Cub is a relatively simple machine and doesn't really require many tools or specialized tools.
I have heard you mention you ordered manuals. You can get the manuals for the Cub and all the implement manuals on the Farmall cub forum. You have to join and have a few posts but you can download the PDFs and if you want the hard copies and put them in a small binder. And like I said will also give you a place to download things like the planter or cultivator , or belly plow manuals so you know how to set them up or the part numbers.
I have all the original books on all these things.
That motor sounds great. You did such a great job that you're forgiven for that pocket knife abuse. :p
Ah, “Lucy”!
That maybe a wallering wear spot as well from those bolts being a little loose at some point.
If that's the original starter switch/contact it may be better than the new one you have ordered big it wasn't worn out. The guys on the forum say those new reproduction ones are not good and the contacts aren't as good as the old ones.
The old one was wore pretty bad but I do save all original part's and rebuild them in case I need them in the future.
Good to know. Is this why my A's final drive gasps when I take the drawbar off?
“I think he’s headed back to my She Shed....I better go see” 😂
Turn your mat facing forward. Thanks. Nice job. All maintenance done for now?
You have such extensive knowledge, have you worked on these before, or did you do a lot of research?
I have all the original manuals and service manuals for this tractor
Shabbat Shalom everone! The day of rest, looking forward to the eternal rest!! Offset so you can cultivate from the center point, and not tear up your row. Don't ask how I know!! 🌱
LoL yep I've been there also.

👍🏼😁 Shalom!
@Farmer Wayne Shalom 😊
Did you make a video filming you changing the oil in the finals, transmission, touch control and that steering box? Looking at some of the farmer fixes and attention to detail it had I would want to make sure I knew for sure there was fresh oil in every sump on that tractor.
I will do videos when it's time to change them.
Love the videos. I have a 1974 Farmall 140 and recently started leaking fuel around the nut and fuel pipe that screws into the sediment bowl assembly. It had a small brass type washer on the end of the fuel pipe there at the sediment bowl but I lost it but have read that they later changed to a current type of brass ferrule but I am not sure which size or if the ferrule has to slide onto the fuel pipe or must be attached to the larger nut or if it matters to seal and stop the fuel leak.
Usually the Ferrell slides over the pipe then squeezes down on it when tightened.
someone put grease in my steering box and it turned hard .I had to spray a thinner into it , still didn't get it all out
Working on equipment is really fun. I'm fixing a '96 dakota to drive right now. You think you could use a front end loader on the cub?
I have one on my new tractor.
🌞
Would you be able to do a how to operate video? I'm purchasing a 57 lo boy and just wanted to see how everything works
I have several videos showing how many things are used on it.
You said previously that this is going to be out in the weather. You have that nice looking tractor and you going to leave it out in the rain and weather? Why not have a lean-to or small shed or add on a small cover for it to keep it out of the rain and direct sun.
I meant it will be used outside. It's in a shed.
👍
A 1/16 or 3/32 drill bit should clean it out
Have you ordered the seals to replace the steering box seals?
Yes.
Danny, I love your cub, and your restoration work on it. I love that paint job you done on it. Do you have a before picture of your cub. When you painted your cub. Did you sandblasted back down to the metal? Or did you just slightly sand it, primed it, and painted. I have a 56 cub model J, I am about to start restoring. Where is the best and economical place to get parts for the cub. I live just south of Dallas Texas in Ovilla and there isn't anybody that handles Cubs or any Farmall equipment down here. If you can help me out I appreciate it. Thank you
I wet sanded it and primed it then painted it with original factory international paint. Most of my parts come from Stiener tractor company and Burch tractor company.
@@DeepSouthHomestead ,Thank you very much. I do watch your channel a lot.
@@rogerstevenson4906 I have a video of when I first bought it.
Danny,
Did you purchase the tractor knowing it needed a complete restoration, or was it something you wanted to do? I was under the impression it was in great shape when you showed it in the first video?
I bought it to restore. The engine being rebuilt was a plus.
Thanks Danny...I missed that it was just the engine.
Danny what was the price of that tractor back in 1950. Any idea?
Does it run on petrol or Diesel?
Success it runs.
Like a kid with a new toy. Lol.
See you Wanda, Danny gone.
Around 700 dollars. It's a gas burner.
Why is it that all men name their toys SHE as in woman? I notice Mr.Danny said SHE was ready to go. Ha !!! looks good Mr. Danny
Actually it was Wanda's idea.
Lol, get that dirty stinky tractor out of my SHE shed...
