Massey Fergusons ain't worth a crap.

Just look at how this thing buckled up when the hydraulics broke on the loader while moving down the road. What a piece of crap.... I love my John Deere!

Blow it out your @ss Jory!

Defiantly something we're not seeing...we've put them things through some serious crap, and not broke them!

However, a tractor smaller than that, with the loader in the air, on a trailer, hitting a concrete bridge WITH the loader, will break the tranny in half...but it will still drive
That was last week's farmer screw up!

I'm quite sure the driver blew something out his @ss there cowboy! I used to drive an old Ford TW-35. The boss' son hit the wrong lever one day going down the road and bend the loader up pretty good. I just got those pics on email so who knows what the heck happened. Anyways, it made me say D*mn! out load. Nothing 'gainst Massey here...just pushing yer buttons!

John Deere's will do it too. I never expected the 4020 to make it past my childhood with me around, but it did well for the 17 years it had the loader on it. Did well until my little brother was in a wet field and shifted down (powershift) that is...

DAMMIT MAN! That would just plain suck! Hey, do you still have that old 4020 sittin' 'round? I sure could use some parts off of it for cheap/free. I got a '68 model and need the flat roof, the fender mounting hardware to bolt them to the axle, and some drag link parts. Hook a brother up!!!

He still has it. They're gonna restore it as a winter project so I doubt the parts are available. It was a 4320 front axle, the original snapped in spectacular fashion.

That's cool. I need the 4320 front end so I can move hay bales. I'm always scared the spindle will break on this original front end. I popped one last year while shearing cedar trees while turning a corner in 4th. Amazing how fast these sobs will stop when the front breaks! That belt buckle felt great going through my spleen. I could also use a turbo off a 4320 for this old man too. You ever changed a main bearing in these? I may have to bring it and drop it off. You work for beer?
