Silage 2007 part 1

No stopping

[@780special]

Nice video. Thank you. Never drove a Leyland, but they seem to have some guts. The one on the forager is certainly earning her keep!

[@richard12781]

This is exellent, a credit to the owner for keeping these fine machines in every day use. It reminds me of our own silage setup 2wd, steep ground and under powered.

[@simonprice7441]

Kidd full chop... way ahead of its time drove a brand new one in 75... on Leyland 2100. Beautiful outfit.. tractor well balanced for the chopper.

[@davidbrennan3613]

Great to see the classics in action very good job

[@mikeclifton7778]

It does them good to get a decent workout, my dad ran a 270 for about 8000 hours in the 1970s, that sound brings it all back!

[@DB1410]

Nice to see a 2100 hard at work im from Co.Wexford and juring the 90's we had a 2100 on standby for our JF mower which was powered by a David Brown 1690 2wd back in the early days we used
David Brown 1200's and a Nuffield 6 cylinder with a lorry engine it was some tractor to pull it use to do 25MPH in second gear and always was doing wheels!
we now use all David Brown 6 cylinders and a case 2290 4wd on the harvester!

[@RayH6]

Very good to see...2100 Leylands working are a rare sight..Thanx

[@simonsteam]

Great Film.Brings back memories of when i was a kid.much more interesting to watch than the silage making of today!

[@msheep66]

What a great pair of Classic Leylands

[@kieranhassett5862]

That 2100 is going well!!

[@bobpaterson1845]

That old girl can handle it just listen tae her bark 💪💪💪

[@bmwman87]

Nice sound!:) That contractor seems to like driving with those old good tractors i think. I like also the old way to silaging ^^

[@Mattygerken]

Cor The Sound Of The Mowing Tractor Is Brilliant !!!

[@makeitforfree6671]

Ahh I'd love to go back to a 272 and them summer's had a 2100 on the harvester too, long days and weeks on end it used to be, Ohhh and cut down army lorry trailers what are brakes.

[@dotty1549]

Excellent tractors,

[@mcormickdriver]

We had a 2100 but decided enough was enough when it had 7 breakdowns in one day. Good idea at the time but they never developed it enough before launching it and tried to do a big tractor on the cheap. As with this one it sounded great but the clutches always gave trouble and the hydraulic pump drives and the hydraulic lift capacity even with assistor rams wouldn't lift our 4 furrow reversible plough off the ground. Can suffer from overheating if worked hard. Had Nuffields and a 384 as well

[@gerardmangan1054]

I want a 2100 now .my god some roar off them.

[@numptybaws3]

Its a bloody pain you never get a break its non stop all day

[@akriggb1]

Do you have a lot of reliability problems with it? We got a 4yr old 2100 back in 1984, were bowled over by it's power (relative to what we had before), but it went through 4 clutches in 2 yrs - something to do with the mounting of the engine I believe was an issue with 6 cylinder Leylands? Anyway it went for 4th time during silaging 1986, so we had to trade it in there & then for a Ford 6600. Less power, but fewer breakdowns.... Fond memories anyway, as 2100 was what I learned to drive in

[@MrFoxman360]

Well, still alot to be said for the trailed harvester, grass coming in nice and slow gives alot of time for rolling the pit, key to good quality silage?

[@majurizetka]

I like!! :)

[@EoineyMTX125]

Fantastic video mate that 2100 is a dream to listen to on the forager btw what make is that a JD 3765?

[@vincenzolorenzo]

If you can try and put a slideshow together with the photos of your setup-it's be great to see!

[@cashapampa]

Yes, it's a 2100. 6 cyl (5.8L). This one is a bit different in that it is turbocharged as well. They weren't as standard but it was added by the dealer(Mahon McPhillips, Kilkenny, Ireland) all the way back in 1981 when it was originally purchased

[@kieranhassett5862]

That 2100 isn't turbo charged

[@ianbermingham9047]

@@kieranhassett5862 it is turbo charged ,ive driven that tractor and im in the video driving the 272 ,do you need a picture of the turbo 🤗

[@kieranhassett5862]

@@ianbermingham9047 so the engine is modified your telling me! Because 2100 were always a straight 6 with no turbo

[@alanchatfield4271]

The 6/98 was a 5.648 litre engine, and as for the other chap not understanding that the turbo was added 🤣, the exhaust originally came out behind the cab at the back top, this one comes out by the bonnet because of the turbo, it was just more easy, did you even read the 1st part of what David wrote?

[@keithfoubister4807]

2100 was a great tractor if they would just hold together

[@ccccllllaaaarrrrkkkk]

Nice video!!! I havent't seen a silage setup like that for many years. Is that leyland on the forager a 6 cylinder?

[@ianbermingham9047]

Yes 6 cylinder turbo

[@pauricmurphy]

thats what made good drivers 2 day

[@keane2100]

We have to 2100 both Synchro they are the best tractor ever , and we never had any clutch problems because we came up with a little trick to solve it.

[@josephlockhart8338]

Dylan Keane what was the trick.

[@johnbiggins2948]

Dylan Keane how bo you stop clutch problem on 2100 leyland

[@johnbiggins2948]

[@simonsteam]

What forage harvester is that? Could do with something small like that on our farm!

[@ianbermingham9047]

Kidd

[@eadestownshawzur2k10]

Nice vid owl Mick harney

[@postiljooni]

nice sound..leyland

[@cashapampa]

Its a Kidd, Crop Chop I think. basically a precision chop from the mid 80's.

[@simonprice7441]

David Harney no m8 a kidd full chop from 70s

[@1daleym]

It's a Kidd crop chop TL. 86-87ish We have one.

[@vincenzolorenzo]

Excellent video. Nice to see smaller silage outfits in operation. Makes a change from the usual high tech contractor stuff! By the way, what make is the harvester?

Yes I lived under a 21 for years!

[@cashapampa]

It is a contractor ! (Doesn't do very many jobs any more though)

[@foxdmulder]

medium 3rd?

[@jamesogilvie1649]

Bloody trailer drivers!! KEEP OFF THE ROWS!!! 😜 😜 😜

[@ianbermingham9047]

Had to drive across the rows as there is a big wet spot on the head land in that paddock so only cart empty trailers through it 😊🙄

[@nbermo]

Fella drawing the silage looks like an amateur :) driving all over the grass just been cut. Although he does seem delighted with his Leyland

[@ianbermingham9047]

😄😄😄

[@stephenfrench1060]

What's with Leylands, would love to have one again but then I think of oil leaks, lift arms bouncing,dry brakes locking,clutch on 2100 chirping,hopping out of gear etc etc etc noon I don't think so

[@postiljooni]

What's that voice up to 5:58 ?

[@simonprice1938]

And too think tractor was ONLY 100hp

[@jimmymannion6874]

Trailer way to big for tractor
