Allis Chalmers 5040 hardest working 40hp, dependable, sips diesel like a baptist at a cocktail party. I've baled small bales 8 hours on under 7 gallon.
We had a 5050 which like the 40 was a rebranded Fiat unit and while getting used the fact that everything was sized in metrics took a bit of doing they were just about the handiest tractor to have around and should have been included in D's list.
Just wanted to ask if you trade tractors? I have a 92 model 7400 John Deere that won't slip into C or D gear. But A and B work. I'm a female so would rather be able to trade to someone for about or around same Model size. That this female poor farmer don't have to Mechanic on. I may be asking a stupid question. But doesn't hurt to ask.
Morning Crazy D. Thanks for the videos. I was thinking, if you haven't done it yet, how about a video on the sizes of implements you can use depending on the horse power rating. Another you might want to do is the top five implements for home/small acreage owners. Thanks!
Great ideal Kevin I'll definitely look into a video like that now I did a video on horsepower and how to rate the horsepower so you know how big of implement to get
I’ve been looking for a tractor, but I’m looking for one that comes with implements. What do you think of a Ford 4000? The one I’m looking at looks like a 8n. It does come with 5 implements.
They're not a bad tractor at all and depending on if it's been taken care of and if the implements are decent and the price it probably wouldn't be a bad deal at all
Crazy D Equipment I haven’t got to see it personally just yet may do that next week. From the photos it’s in decent shape and so is the implements. They are asking $5,000 for all.
I was a awesome tractor that buddha motor ran smooth an had good torque. I am 40 yrs old now an still smile when I see pictures of me on that tractor as a kid growing up. Started running farm equipment at the young age of 7 on a 8n Ford an a john deere m then moved up to the wd 45 an the minnie moe z with hand clutch an the wc's with cultivators on it
Love the IH Utility's. Neighbor bought a 350 Utility new, used it hard. I worked for him between 1979-1983 and used it hard. He retired in 2000 and left it go with his farm. Drove by this spring and the present owner was using it to disc. Great little tractor!
I don't know anything about Belarus but I have experience with all of your other picks-all good ones in my opinion. As with anything else though, it all depends on how well they were maintained and how they were treated-or mistreated over the years. A close friend of mine was recently looking for a good used tractor for maintaining his driveway year round and bush hogging in the warmer months. I knew of a sale coming up that had just what he needed and had a feeling that it wouldn't get many bids. He ended up taking home a Ford 5000 (gas) with under 1500 hrs. for under $800! I knew the history of this tractor and how well it was cared for. My father in law bought it new and cared for it like it was his first born daughter (my wife lol!). This was a consignment sale so the "collectors" weren't looking for a tractor to do actual work and the younger bidders were looking for modern stuff. This old girl went to a good home where she can keep doing what she was built for. My friend is happy with his purchase and "dad" is happy that his tractor is still useful to someone. Win/win in my book.
We had one of those industrial internationals 22 years ago. That thing was built like a tank and the gasoline engine held 9 and a half quarts of oil. Was a great tractor and we sold it to a fellow in the mountains of Virginia. Ford 2000, 3000, and 4000 are also amazing tractors. My neighbor had a 2000 gas and we had a 3000 and 4000 diesel.
Good work D. Perhaps this might help The AC 5030 is a rebranded Japanese built tractor. The MF 50 did come with a diesel. It was the same engine that the MF 35 had it. In fact the 50 was simply a a 35 with a row crop option. My experience with MF's in the models leading up to the 1100 were tremendous power take off tractors but left quite a bit to be desired when it came to heavy tillage work BTW if anybody wants to know who David Brown was he was Harry Ferguson's European business partner. The problem with Belarus is that many were built in the Soviet republic of Belarus during the days of communist/socialist Russia where quality and reliability were not at the top of the regime's list of priorities. While your efforts are commendable and appreciated nevertheless you're talking about 50-60+ year old units and let's face it......no matter what you try to do the things......worn out is simply worn out.
Wore out is simply wore out that is for is right and you have to be careful when you're buying tractors at this age Belarus when the first ones come over here they were absolute junk and you are correct that's cuz they were still under the Soviet build policy which was slapping together get it out who cares this is a job and I have to do it so or else but later on l Once the benefits of free economy started the quality really did pick up on those tractors the later ones aren't bad at all from the early 2000s late 90s they were really starting to build fairly decent tractors and the new ones are actually pretty good but they have the stigma of junk because of the early days and I don't blame people
Good solid advise you see a lot of these hobbie farmers buying Kobota's and the like spending a fortune for no reason you can also go to the farm auctions and pick-up implements for these older machines at good prices so you can keep your cost's down
I agree the IH 300 is a good running tractor, but I had so many problems with the manual steering! I would never own another IH 300, unless it has some type of power steering!
Maybe the ones sent to the US. They still use them daily in Belarus 🇧🇾 Only tractor you see in city service. Places like Minsk and Vitebsk today. Identical to the ones shipped here.
What would be a good tractor for some one who has no need for one. Other than a project. Easy to repair and find parts. Maybe go to a parade.or a tractor show. Not to win just showup.
Ha I called the Belarus before you said it. We had a 611 cab 2wd. 75 hp. For the cost you couldn’t beat it. Put many hours on a 15’ batwing. We would plow with that and a 686. I would pick the Belarus every time.
Personally, I'd have listed the Massey 65 instead of the 50. More common, also perkins diesel as an option. that's my only squabble. I might have a certain bias growing up with and currently owning a 65.
The Belarus 800 is the non-MFWD Belarus 820; same tractors as the MTZ-80UK and MTZ-82UK. They are built in Belarus, not the Czech Republic. Other than the cab (UK), they're unchanged since 1974.

Yeah we take trade-ins
Do you have a part number for the tachometer cable and a speedometer cable on a Case 930 I'm having a hard time finding them

Make sure you run the tractor and run the PTO three-point all of that run the three-point up and stand on
Crazy D Equipment I will. Are there any known issues with those tractors?
Crazy D Equipment wasn’t able to get the Ford 4000. Looking at an international 140 now.
Hey fellas😀 so happy to see this today! Great job keep ‘em coming.
A David Brown 1200 is a great tractor. Good power and easy on fuel I like mine
Great video. Thanks
We used a wd 45 for baling small square bales for years. Had a hand clutch. It was cheap never needed anything but gas and an oil change
I used a wd45 for 4 years pulling a 4 but 5 round baler
We had a 56 wd45 diesel narrow front on the farm for yrs. Loved that tractor.
@@thomasfiedler5176 I'd love to have a wd45 diesel

@@thomasfiedler5176 I will get me one one of these days and I want a D21
videos getting better all the time - good stuff!
Good job crazy! Would love to hear more information about vintage four-wheel-drive tractors.
What do you think about the International 184. Finding attachments has been an issue.
Excellent video, appreciate your knowledge.
Thank you so much Crazy D. Absolutley loved it. Good layout as well.
Love the IH Utility's. Neighbor bought a 350 Utility new, used it hard. I worked for him between 1979-1983 and used it hard. He retired in 2000 and left it go with his farm. Drove by this spring and the present owner was using it to disc. Great little tractor!
Massey Ferguson 135
A lot of bang for the buck

What about ford 4000
They are a very good

I would like to see a top ten Ford tractors 🤔🤔
We have a top-10 for video
We have a Ford top 10 video sorry about that
Good video, I expected at least one N model Ford
This is part 2 and part one I did recommend 8N
I agree the IH 300 is a good running tractor, but I had so many problems with the manual steering! I would never own another IH 300, unless it has some type of power steering!
If you can find a case 800 gas wide front tractor that your willing to sell for $2000 let me know
I don't know where you're from Cory but on marketplace here in Kansas there is 2 for sale 1 diesel 1 gas boss wide front
I’m from Delaware, the state, lol. I don’t want to have have more than 3500 in the tractor counting shipping.
WE were a dealer when the belurus tractors were new and they were a complete pos
Maybe the ones sent to the US. They still use them daily in Belarus 🇧🇾
Only tractor you see in city service. Places like Minsk and Vitebsk today.
Identical to the ones shipped here.
Belarus or MTZ Ruslan is from BelarusSSR or now the country of Belarus
Like these better than the audience pick. Also is a M.F. 125 diesel, good? A friend is selling one.
What would be a good tractor for some one who has no need for one. Other than a project. Easy to repair and find parts. Maybe go to a parade.or a tractor show. Not to win just showup.
John Burd 8n ford or similar ferguson
cool

We have three Belarus tractors use them every day they are some of the best trackers I have ever seen way better than John Deere's
Personally, I'd have listed the Massey 65 instead of the 50. More common, also perkins diesel as an option. that's my only squabble. I might have a certain bias growing up with and currently owning a 65.
MF 65 is an excellent tractor
Gotta watch final drives in hubs on 65s lots of people don't realize that they have their on oil and dont oil from differential
Belarus tractors are produced at Minsk Tractor Works in Minsk the capitol city of the country of Belarus
Thank you for that information I was thinking they were built in the city of Belarus but you are correct
Jd 4020
961 Ford- good as any
