Hey Joey. Re viewing this post. I learned more from you as my basic understanding of the cultivators has increased. I get it about your use of your hammer, it works w/o damage. I have picked up a couple Farmall’s of late and the hammer has been used so wrong the parts are not salvageable! Replacements are not real cheap as you know. Love the comment about an SAE adjustable. I don’t understand some of the comments either, but I learned over 65 years ago which end of the screw driver to beat on (neither is the correct answer). I am going back thru your posts and continue to learn. Thanks.

You make your 140 earn its keep. Down here in south Alabama you don't see many 140s. A few A's and Super A's. Most of them belong to collectors now. The old timers used to farm the A's but they have all passed on. Glad to see your videos I've really enjoyed seeing the old tractor work the way it was designed to. They really are second to none with row crop type farming.

That is an awesome set up, we have 53 super A. I’m pretty sure it came with a bunch of tillage equipment but it’s been 30 years since it came out to the farm and now my dad is gone he would have known all that stuff. Glad there is a video I can use as a reference.

Might try some lister/furrower bottoms to replace those alabama sweeps. Most wearparts companies sell them in a lighter version for cultivators, even though as a quick glance the shape looks like a heavy middle buster plow.

For your shank that keeps tripping, why don’t you just tighten the spring down as that adjusts the tension on the trip mechanism?

Thanks for these. I'm going to try to use the Farmall for the first time to lay out some corn and maybe sunflowers. Do I need to lay off the rows just as you show here first? Then do I use hillers? To mound, then do I plant? Of can I skip the middle buster?

Most the time if I’m making rows for tomatoes or beans I just start bedding right on the cut soil. I don’t lay it off first. I usually plant corn flat.

@@Jtwes good to know. This garden is really just going to be for play this year. Growing indian corn, and maybe plant some deer corn ( like out of the bag) to just have something to dial in my skills and equipment before I spend money on some seed . I got my granddads cub last year and want to play with it and actually garden with it eventually. But I don't want to get the cultivator blight on actual plants I wanted to get food from.

Jtwes, may I ask what your tractor's wheel centers are spaced at? I have a farmall cub currently spaced on 40" centers. I don't pull hills for most of my rows while field planting. I am looking for a little more room to sometimes use my David Bradley walk behind which in some cases, uses 40" wide implements. Just looking to gain a little more middle width than I get with the 40" spacing. Thanks.
