That is a DAMN shame!! I watched this whole series and saw how much you busted your butt to help these guys out (you are amazing, BTW!!). I figured it WOULD work, they would say hallelujah, and keep using it for a few more years... but no, the thing goes off to scrap!! I hope you got paid handsomely for the increadibly well done job!! Much respect!!
God I love your videos, I think you should leave the steering pipes as they are and watch their reaction when they take their first drive.!!! Keep them coming and greetings from the UK🚜🇬🇧
Glad to see it move and enjoyed seeing the inside guts of the IVT. I thought it was a lot more complicated than it turned out being. The wonders of computer controls talking to each other to make it work where you don't feel the clutch packs shift!
I still think it would be better to get a couple more years out of it before they knocked it over the head. Im glad it moved I will try one now that I’ve seen inside one. Thanks for the great videos.
I seen about 8 of those John Deere tractors here in southern California at the scrap yard that Millionaire farmers traded in for new tractors under the program you spoke about . In the mean time hundreds of small farmers who would be better off using the tractors that were traded in and then give the state their old polluting tractors but no way would they approve that .
I had no idea California had such programs. What a cluster fuck that state has become. Really pisses me off when other states start either adopting or being forced to use the same programs.
Well, I made it 96 to 3. Probably, the owner,John Deere Corp, and the local dealer gave you the 3 thumbs down. I hate seeing usable stuff destroyed. No wonder Ca is broke. Not a mechanic. Just a retired farmer. But I always enjoy your vids.
The main problem with this tractor was the transmission then - runs good sounds like - he brought this all the way from Southern California for you to fix - how far is that
Similar to this...makes me literally sick. At the end when the crane is just tossing it around, it's almost like torture. I hope this NEVER comes to TX (edit: apparently it has and its called TERP). Video below is a JD 4430 being destroyed, running it without fluids. czcams.com/video/VjZC4OTlW9A/video.html
At first I thought you were helping a guy that was struggling so hope you got your moneys worth.The woke world will wake up one day and the the way it use to be will be erased.
hello my friend i have that problem i have a code 304077.07 and my tractor dont move forward or reverse hi start but stoping 10 cm when its moved how can you help me ?
this series started with a poor farmer complaining he's only going to get $10,000 for this tractor and he's taking a huge gamble on a patch instead of a real repair. after you agree to patch it suddenly he wants you to hurry so he can get $40,000from the state because its a big polluter. I'm not sure where the blame lies.

Good video. You are 100% correct about all the gov programs driving costs up for the rest of us.

That was quite a job to take on by yourself. It’s almost a shame you don’t have some young guys willing to learn your trade under you.
Keep doin' what you're doin'. Your "mechanic's eye view" is the way to go. It also gives you an out when someone accuses you of talking to yourself.
I still think it would be better to get a couple more years out of it before they knocked it over the head. Im glad it moved I will try one now that I’ve seen inside one. Thanks for the great videos.
That’s a shame it’s going to be destroyed. Great job getting it fixed anyway 😕
That’s a nice garage man. Be nice if you had an over head crane too
You speak the truth I love it

Blows my mind too, but that is how the desk jockeys think.
You should’ve kept the steering lines like that I would make driving very exciting!

"Puttin on your coveralls, and get your ass to work. Thats the program" lmao!
Would make a good tractor for someone running an old 30 series JD. I like the steering. See if your help drank too much much the night before.
Agen nice videos good tecniks on dis masines. Good work

+mrih1586 Thanks, take care.
Wow i learned a lot from this video. Never buy a John Deere with IVT. I wonder which tractor you think is the most dependable?
Iowa does the same thing with 06 and older school buses we had to drill holes in the engine block cut frame and axles made me sick to my stomach
Should have just welded a pipe between crank and rear pinion shaft and kept the gearbox for yourself.
Your the man
When your a politician you have to think outside the guide lines
How do you get those big parts so clean for reassembly ?

Sickening.

$40 000 for a 20 000 hour tractor... Government couldn't be more full of shit
What's the state of California going to do with it after they pay for it
Just a damn waist of good engines. Just sick
hello my friend i have that problem i have a code 304077.07 and my tractor dont move forward or reverse hi start but stoping 10 cm when its moved how can you help me ?
Aka cash for clunkers fucked us out of a lot of parts
That's a big shame to not use that tractor if it's working properly
Cash for clunkers program sponsored by cali.
The state of California is giving $40,000 each tractor - did not understand the reasoning for that - sounds crazy
Also they destroy these engines so you don’t have parts either
wat a waste of such of a good tractor . makes me sick to think someone is gonna knock a hole in the block😠
+Jt Murphy Yeah me too.

Where's the poor mechanics handout. Oh that's right , there isn't one . I hear you .
Almost wanted to give a thumbs down on this video just because of learning that it’s going to be destroyed.
