Excellent video and really enjoyed looking at the front hub repair. Probably a good job to have used new bits as there should be no element of doubt now and good to know the jobs right👍😉. Bleady cheap tools. I could just see that breaker bar giving. Such a shame as money wasted🙁. Nice look around John Hedges👍. Must be handy that new Rundles depot for Massey parts

Glad you liked it 👌 I thought I better way had used new parts as its our only loader tractor and the second hand part may not have been far off breaking aswell 🤷♂️ Yes! I don't think I paid much for it which should have been a sign really 🤦♂️ not sure how they pass standards like that really 🤷♂️ I must say I enjoyed wondering round sheds of tractor parts! 😂 They're not that close to me a really, still a 45 minute drive to get there! They're based at Winkleigh, used to have a massey dealer in Barnstaple by the name of Bernard Hancock, but he packed it in afew years ago no! Thanks for the positive comments! 😊

@@seggonscontractors588 I didn’t know where the Winkleigh depot was until a couple of weeks ago but happened to run past there and spotted the sign. Bernard was a good guy. Absolutely genius on lister generators apparently and virtually lite up Exmoor years ago!!!. Remember him selling several different makes of tractors over the years including Lamborghini and universal’s

@kevinmanley2498 I drove straight past it the first time I went 🤦♂️ was good to have a look around, they've not finished fitting out the new showroom yet but it looks smart already 👌 It was the first place I worked at when I left school over the summer, learnt lots and was very keen being a young lad 😂 I think they covered most brands for a while back in the day, always something different in there!!

The old oil looked very black, is that why the bearings/seals went ?. 250 hrs max time between oil change, same as engine oil changes. Tractors need greasing every 50 hrs. Done thousands of hrs on loader tractors, never seen axle bearing fail before ????
@seggonscontractors588

I think the oil was black as a result of the bearing housing having failed, I keep up to date as much as I can with servicing and greasing, it is an older machine any way so stuff is starting to show signs of age, and being the second owner I think the owner previous to us was quite hard on it 🙄 and also as I said in the video I think it's the biggest loader that tractor will take so its under alot of pressure all the time 🤷♂️🤷♂️ machinery breaks no matter what you do with it 🤦♂️😂😂

It's a very reliable work horse. The only thing I would say is it's a bit light on the back end without a counterweight. If you have a counter weight it's an awesome loader tractor, visibility is great, good hydraulic power, nice gearbox and quite nimble. The only issues we've had are really due to the lack of maintenance from the previous owner. Other things such as the engine damper plate (which you'll hear when stopping the engine), and the switch for the rear linkage playing up are just common things I think. However if the previous owner has been shy of the grease gun like ours was you may need to check the front axle pivot, 4wd front coupler will get slack and the 4wd will bang when you let off the breaks or turn off 4wd, our loader was quite slack but again that's maintenance. Other than usual wear and tear, it's been (and still is) an awesome little loader tractor. It's the sort of tractor you come to in the morning without the fear of "what's going to go wrong today!" 😂 highly recommended for a stockman tractor and not shy of a day's work either!!
