Tom you really are a perfect match for Colin, so it's fate that you would know each other and get on. You have that cheeky exuberance and are a natural in front of the camera, and I know how hard that is for most people. So keep the videos coming, and we'll all keep watching them.

Dam that hitch up was well too smooth, I aspire to come to such a level, not the easiest nowadays when u have to lean half way way out the back window to see and then ur new tractors will go in to park as safety bc ur not on the seat🤣
Well handy that trailer, I hope they managed to get all that mess sorted. Could you let me know. I was driving a 18t flatbed back to the yard when I heard a steady ryhmic banging from the rear axle. I jumped out of the cab torch in hand fearing the worse. I checked the props, centre bearing and all that I could prod and point at so to speak. Turned out to be a house brick wedged between the near side dual tyres. Did sound bad from inside the cab. Broke it up with a few angry taps with a hammer and was then on my merry way....
So I am not familiar with this new of equipment but you mentioned that the "Front axle seized up and the drive shaft then broke destroying the oil pan and everything else. If the front axle seized up them front wheel and tires seemed to be rolling fine getting it on and off the trailer. Mabe I am just misunderstanding your terminology
I drive a fendt 822 for work and have had many 4wd issues, if any hydraulic or electrical issues occur the tractor defaults to 4wd no matter what speed your doing, if you don’t have your music blaring you can hear the front axle whining at high speeds, I’d say something similar happened here, something as simple as a solenoid failing can lead to this if not noticed in time.
@@bekabeka71 yeah for sure bud, it’s not a bad thing about defaulting to 4wd, because if it happens in a wet muddy paddock you can at least get the tractor out with less chance of getting stuck. But with how much modern tractors are aimed at being able to do road work more efficiently with higher road speeds it’s definitely a bad thing, like once upon a time 40kmh was considered a fast tractor and at that speed this kind of damage may not have happened, now 50-60kmh is a more standard speed and that can be the difference between a minor fix or catastrophic failure we saw here.
We had someone do that in our 399 one silage time, freewheeling down hill with it in 4wd, luckily the front linkage brackets stopped the propshaft doing too much damage.
Is there any point in putting a winch on the Bailey trailer deck like the tow trucks have? Use dyneema rope on the winch and give the pusher tractor an assist.
As far as I'm aware most 4wd tractors kick into 4wd under breaking. The speeds they do now I imagine a big load has gone through the front axle somewhere causing it to lock up.

Tom, That 8S is one sweet tractor! In your experiences in farming, what crop/s appear to be the most profitable? You shall have a fine night, good sir.
This happened to me with the very first 4wd MF 590 more or less the exact same, 4wd shaft broke under the sump, smashing the engine sump, losing all the engine oil out on the the road, it also sheared the rear gearbox bearing off the gearbox end clean off, this was back in 1979/1980, no 60 mph back then, not even 25 mph, it took MF dealer 6 months to repair the new 590, came to light, the tractor didnt have a centre shaft mounted bearing, shaft started to vibrate violently & got of shape. All MF 4wd tractors were never released until they were sorted, my boss blamed me for the horrendous damage to his new tractor, MF supply'd him with a brand new 590 4WD multi, but with a bearing mid mounted shaft, MF told him it was their fault & not mine for the damage, but I never got an apology off him, I left shortly after. (I was towing a Grimme 2 row harvester, one of the first, I modified it for a good custermer of his that wanted a bagging platform on, Grimme said it would bust on the drawbar area, it never did, he came crawling back for me to take job back, I refused his offer)
No big deal, there are lots of tractors nowadays that go 50, 60 or even 70km/h. Usually much more of a problen with trailer axles not rated for those speeds.
4wd is always disabled above 25 km/h, no matter what. Just while braking the braking force will get delivered via the prop shaft if this model still got the front brake at the prop shaft. We will probably never hear, what happened... sadly.
@@Pulse87dotca its not mechanical linked at all in a tractor. The steering is full hydraulic and the orbitrol will pump the oil, you have a ton of load at the steering wheel to steer it without power "assist" from the hydraulic pump. As long as its rolling, its fairly possible to steer but hard work.
@@daolinhai Maybe it is that way in some tractors, especially European ones, but not all. Case, Leyland, and IH all had mechanical linkage with power assist. Fendt may be totally different, as I haven't seen one to know.
Not exactly a shining endorsement of Agco, eh? With a tractor that expensive, you'd expect that stupid stuff like this wouldn't happen. Massey is part of Agco as well. Be worried... Be very worried... lol They make New Holland look good, and that's *really* saying something.
the prop shaft is fully covered below the tractor and there are no greasing nippled at that shaft. They use so called lifetime greasing. Even if we all know, that this is not true at all.
I’ve ran older tractors all my life, when I saw that moveable hitch and how slick that was to hook up the trailer the first words out of my mouth were “F*** you” awesome video man
We had a pair of Massy Ferguson 135s on our 30 acre market garden smallholding. One of my brothers was in charge of one of them, and it is claimed - but I suspect unfairly - that he forgot to put oil in it, and we had conrods and bits of piston poking out of the side of the engine block. I remember our first tractor was one of those Pertrol/TVO (Tractor Vaporising Oil or paraffin, I believe). You started it on petrol, and switched to the much cheaper TVO when it was warm. I'm trying to put a date on it, and I think it had to be in the 1950s.
Change your oil based on engine hours not miles. You listed the miles the post so i know you shouldn't be operating equipment. Miles are for the axes and wheels.
Would it be standard operating practice from a Health and Safety point of view, to allow live traffic to flow past in very close proximity, just at the most dangerous point of the loading procedure? If that bar connecting the two tractors fails as the Fendt is being pushed up the ramp, you have a very heavy unmanned tractor that can easily roll out into live traffic, and I'll leave the rest up to your imagination. Leaving aside Chapter 8 or H&S, surely it's just common sense that you don't place unsuspecting members of the public in danger due to your actions? I appreciate that you weren't necessarily the one in charge of Traffic Management at the location, but you could have insisted on all traffic being stopped for the two minutes it took to load the Fendt? Query comes from a place of genuine concern - not trying to be a pedantic tosser or troll.

That bar doing the pushing up the bed is the real MVP here , obviously after you Tom :D
Was the engine shut off in time? I’d imagine
May be, but also may be damage from metal shards being caught in places while it was still spinning.

I think it's time to watch the drag racing guys. Two simple cardan rings had saved the owner a great deal of mone
Some newest Fendt’s have cardan protection tube, cardan shaft is in that tube which is fixed.
That Cardin shaft hasn't even got a centre bar!
Hello Camshaft, Hello prop shaft, I haven't seen you before
More stuff like this tom lad 😁 Keep it coming 👍
A smashing time for a rather bent Fendt!
Oh that one sick tractor. If she not red ❤️ leave her in the shed .
Wonder if he was doing 65k in 4wd
That looks expensive.
Going to take a bit of sorting out wonder if the engine is OK.
What was it doing in 4WD?

@@lukepalmer2126 100% correct.
If the front wheels are turning, the front drive shaft is turning weather it’s in 4WD or not, no free wheeling hubs on a tractor!

Seems nothing left of the sump - did it completely shatter into pieces and fall away? Odd?
Cast alloy sump, not steel. Fairly thick, 5-10mm. Good sump, not designed to take that kind of impact!
Interesting what caused that or was it general prop failure?
tom must be in the dna of the lambs iam paul lamb from the north west of england not from farming. from hgv recovery. keep up the good vids
There are several families named Lamb here in the American Midwest (Iowa). Good, hard-working folks they are, too!

Lack of oil/grease on that bearing!
I'd ask Santa for a winch for the trailer.
Did it get a hard life? Looks like it didn't get much maintenance.. some amount of damage wow..
So how much was the repair bill?

Lockers still on when driving on the road?
In the US a 300 hp fendt is only a couple thousand dollars more than a Newholland t8. I don’t see the hype of them.
I've got a question, totally diffrent, where can i order such plugs for air breaks? Never seen such, and the ones we use in Poland drives me nuts.
They are standard in the uk maybe agri link
Free wheeling and Selected a Gear that is why and would have had the brakes on So in 4x4 Game Over 😂🙈🥵 Top of the Class 😅
Is a bad day with traktor. Sweden
That's why you don't drive with 4wd on the road...
A perfect lesson on why if you want to go over 40k you need a fastrac, not a fent
Ur talking 💩
Why?
@@bekabeka71 it's not suitable for going so fast
For a start no suspicion

wrong tires ?
