Thanks for watching!! Check out our merch on www.junkyarddigs.com/
I'm only 12 and I love this channel
Find a Super 8....Brass has to be tinned before it can be soldered.
Next year you got to buy a deere
They look after you if you send stuff down under?? Got nothing to ship myself, thought I might buy some RUclips merch at last, but buggered if I'm paying US$ for a tshirt, if the postage would cover a cheap engined thing!!!😂😂🍻🍻 Love your work guys Stevo
@georgiaridgerunner79 ya they did and they had a vid
The farming content on this channel is top notch. I love your normal videos, but the farm content is a nice change of pace.
For real. I was excited for every farming video last year. It's a great idea
I totally agree!
Love it
it's what feeds our country! The fact that some kids can get worn out farm equipment and work ground with it just shows how lucky we are to live in the greatest country on earth
The pliers content is above and beyond
45:50 MAJESTIC AF right here, the seeds almost done, the rain is a comin', the tractor chugging the last row, and the planter bouncing along behind spittin' out the last of the final bag of bean beans, THIS IS AMERICA right here, folks
Underrated
Glad to hear that Luke lives close by again and has more free time. I also agree with him that you need your own tractor. This years planting went much smoother than last years though.
So good to hear Luke is local again! I love seeing these old tractors do work.
Question: Will Angus be joining along on the Farmyard Digs series? Honestly last year with the comedy y'all brought (along with the revivals) like "THAT'S NOT HOW THIS WORKS." and "Got pliers?" it was just too good!
He probably has the big pliers, too.
@@TheOtherBill *in his overalls pocket.
WE WANT ANGUS CONTENT
that’s 100% where the big pliers are
Crazy was I was coming back to this video to comment on the same thing. We want to see more Angus collabs.
I had the exact same Farmall. I grew up on a few of em, my neighbor later on in life had one he was gonna scrap, I give him $150 for it and had it runnin that afternoon. Good ole gal.
Last year’s farm revival series was what brought me to your channel. Was very happy to see this video show up, enjoyed watching it. Keep up the good work guys! I would love to see the occasional 1 minute short over the course of the growing season to see how the crop is doing. Cheers!
We will try to include it in the videos better this year!
Imagine what that 460 could do with all 6 cylinders! They only had around 50 HP, but that was a different kind of horsepower back then.
They use twin back wheels for most heavy work plowing rear wheel actually so they use that 50hp in every way they could
And the fact that engine and frame of tractor could take a beating and still work is why old tractor are better than new plastic ones
Yes a 300hp john deere is better but need much more care with all the computer and sensitive parts
Like my pa used to said “old but gold”
Horsepower before the 70s were actually how many horses it could replace 😂😂😂
@@rezh1999 and the old ones will usually pop off after sitting for months unlike new ones
Back then it wasent about how fast you could go down the road. It was how much pulling power you had in the field
Absolutely love the farming content. Not many channels around that do both.
There's others? 😂
@@JunkyardDigs Yup!, just not many
@@JunkyardDigs is that Farmall Diesel?
@@TheFarmallfarmer Nope. Diesels don't have carburetors.
I'm two generations removed from Minnesota Farmers. Watching you take this forgotten equipment, giving it a little love, and planting a crop is great content. I wish I knew more about that equipment, and how to be a farmer. Because I have tremendous appreciation for people who work the land and provide something good and tangible for America. Thanks for sharing, and thanks for reviving these old rigs!
It's not as easy as it looks it's hard work up before the sun comes up bed after the sun goes down if your lucky enough to do that.
YAAAAAYYY TRAAACTORR REVIVAL I love this farming revival stuff
HELL YEAAAAAAAAAAAAH 😎🤟🔥🔥🔥🔥
My thought exactly!
Absolutely, this stuff is the best 👌
I do too
Discing, cultivating and planting beans on 40 acres looks like alot of fun (as long as someone else is doing it) thanks Farmer Kevin and Ms. Mook for the farming fun video!
That tractor is sweet 👌Mook is such a kind heart to all the little beasties.
Very cool to see you and Luke getting to visit more and more.
As he starts to disk, I can see a lot of blowby shooting down out of the slobber tube, so much that it might save fuel to try to plumb that slobber tube back into the intake. That engine might be worn enough to think about a ring sealing oil additive like Restore, too.
The tractors are more epic adventures than anything else on the channel!
But the whole farm machinery episodes are excellent.
Plus Jessie and Luke both being back on the channel is really good.
Looking forward to seeing them again.
Bravo guys 👏
I love it...at 21:23 Kevin tries to get the tractor to move, it stalls again, and Kevin is like "Screw it, I'm just gonna drink some more beer."
I was over it at that point😂
isnt that how you fix all your problems ?
@@JunkyardDigs get a new carb, instead if messing wit that hunk of junk.
it was just full of stick.
I've sneezed three times every time I walk out into the sun everyday of my life that I can remember, and according to my mom I did it when she carried me out of the hospital for the first time when I was three days old. I feel ya, Mook.
Love the variety of content on your channel from Nascar to farming. Thanks for keeping us entertained
Great effort Junk Yard Digs Farm from Sydney Australia.
From soldering the float valve right through to "spilling the beans."
Getting the old farm implements running is not easy.
You make my smile, for sure
🌏🇭🇲

I've been working on fixing up a 460. They are neat tractors. Beware the year, the first year production had many many transmission issues because the driveline was not built heavily enough to handle the power of the larger engines. International Harvester completely redesigned the transmission and offered a fix to all the early machines. Otherwise they are great machines. If you look at the underside of the transmission and see some welded patches or anything of that sort then you will know that the transmission has had a failure and been repaired.
Ah yes The 460/560 the beginning of the end for IH. It was actually the rear end/final drives that were failing. I was expecting a "time to check the gas and fill the oil" quip the way that thing was smoking. Do you think the rings were bad when it was parked or did they get gummed up or frozen while it was taking a long rusty nap?
But they were sold as a low ter puller thier first year. Thier 3rd year was when they guarantee the product lol
@@fk4515 By the way it looks and the way it runs I would say its just tired. Note the trouble that it has when trying to get it to move where it just stalls out. The one I am working on also does this on occasion but because It's down a cylinder. I can hear all 6 firing in this video. It's just a well used machine.
I can't remember where I heard it, but I believe that the 460s and 560s with an X stamped on the serial tag were repaired by IH.
Kevin, the lever next to your left leg when driving the tractor is your Torque Amplifier. You can pull it back and it will help you if you're going through a tough spot in the field.
Old equipment revivals mixed with amateur farming. Adds fresh variety and a whole new dimension to the channel. Brilliant idea!
I LITERALLY JUST FINISHED WATCHING LAST YEARS SERIES!
Couldn't have timed it better! Can't wait to see how this year will go! 😄
Glad Luke and you will be getting back together, ya’ll have good chemistry. Always enjoyed you collaberations.
I really enjoyed last year's farming series. You guys prove that you don't need million dollar equipment to do the job. Good luck with your crops this year!
I really enjoy the change to the farming videos. Not only does it show what average farmers go through, it's just nice to see old equipment in general get a second chance at life.
I love the farm revivals and actually using the equipment. Keep up the great work!
I never thought that a 3-wheeler could pull a planter!
Mook's farmer outfit is AWESOME!
Your farming videos are far and away my favorite episodes. I have a 1958 Ford 641 Workmaster myself, and I named her Gertrude, or Gerdie for short. That old gal still puts in *WORK*, too!
I needed that!! Dropping the stick in the fuel I died!!!! Thanks Kevin for the best laugh in months!!!
"Thers a whole stick in the sediment bowl now."😂😂😂😂😂
I'm so glad you did another farming revival! Yay tractors!!!
On my family farm we have a Farmall 560 turbo diesel that smokes a lot💨 we just keep adding used motor oil in it🛢. 50 years and 3 generations of farming and it still runs. Those old Farmall's never die.😄
Love what you guys are doing on your farm!
I really enjoy the farming videos using the old equipment. Great to see Luke again, glad he lives closer now. Can't wait to see your next collaboration with him. Good luck with the beans. 🚜🇺🇸 🚜🇺🇸 🚜🇺🇸
Even on the well worn tires that tractor stayed hooked up and pulled like a champ
She's a good old piece of time proven American iron.
My uncle Fred had an ancient Case tractor that he bought when the horses got old. He parked it behind the carriage house for winter; drained fluids, took out the battery and put a can on the exhaust. Reverse the process in spring and she always started right up. Good stuff. That tractor was my first driving experience.
So happy farm vids are back I wish you the best of luck
It's always good to see Jesse wish we could seen more of him
I'm glad you got the beans in 💪
Love the constant great content Kevin & Mook bring on their channels!
Kevin and Mook you 😂are great at fixing up stuff haveing great video's Training stuff.
I really enjoyed last season's farming shenanigans so looking forward to this seasons arseing about with farm equipment.
Farming, cars, trucks old 3 wheeled Hondas! That's all I need to come back. Most of all yall's humor and personalities. Thanks again for a great ride!
“They’re the puppies of spiders” -made me do a spit-take. Another fun episode all around.
Each time you did a field repair, I kept mentally urging success. I wanted to see the old tractor work and keep working. You may start a trend of people using abandoned equipment nursed into operation to farm land instead of going into outrageous debt for equipment the owner can't even work on! You got a good don't give up attitude that I think makes folks want to try to push their projects forward. Though I'm subbed, I usually watch and don't like a video cause I'm just one of thousands that watch and don't think it changes anything but the attitude you both portray was exceptional. Thanks for sharing these and hoping for all the success at the farm.
Absolutely love it when you're doing the planting it is funny as heck!😂
Can hardly wait until things start happening even more😊
Like the old Indian said in The Outlaw Josie Wales, "we must endeavor to persevere". I don't leave comments ever, but i felt the need to leave this one. Keep up the old iron revival perseverance. Trucks, tractors, cars, etc. I did the same for many years way before the internet. Thank you for the videos, i enjoy watching you doing what i can't do anymore.
I don't like to laugh at other people misfortune but you dropping that stick in the tank made me laugh. I needed that after these last couple of days.
I kinda like seeing all this old junk out in the field again. I feel your pain with the Farmall fuel nightmare. When i was fourteen I took the SuperM carburetor off so many damn times that i wouldn't even get on it without a wrench in my pocket. I like your float bulb fix. My old neighbor suggested the same "fix". I thought he was a genius at the time. Turns out he was experienced AND genius! Thanks, Mr.Canterbury, for helping this clueless kid get that old junker runnin' a million years ago.
Ah yes! A new episode from Corngard, the mythical realm of endless fields of corn, where farmers can farm forevermore. I missed these. :D
We had a 460 in the 70's. I hated that tractor but my Father loved it. Great Video! Thanks!
My first time watching this channel was when you did last years farming I proved it so much I started farming my own land thank you everyone from junk yard digs you guys are amazing
The six cylinder sounds suspiciously like a five cylinder 😐. Awesome old tractor that just needs a bit more love. Maybe the cracked distributor cap and disintegrating plug wires?
I expected at least to pull and check the plugs.
Next time if you get a diesel tractor, you could potentially run it on ‘abandoned’ cooking oil for fuel. 😀
Other Automotive RUclipsrs "Give it the Beans" Kev and Mook grow 'em!
Plow from corner to corner and then plow round the next pass before you plant myself friend, I worked with the farmers when I was 15-18 back in the day Kevin! I enjoy watching you and Mook working the farm brother! I love the smell of fresh cut dirt, and I love watching the dirt being turned over, was my favorite time of the year but I was always stuck plowing at night and the old man that was working with us! At night if I was plowing corner to corner I had to hurry up and cut my strips before dark because at night you wouldn’t find your way! I know I learned to find the trees silhouette in the dark so I could establish where I was if lost! lol 😂 So I had to get my stips cut before dark! No cab on a dusty night was another thing! I’d be black when on those hot Louisiana nights I was sweating, the dust would stick to your skin! lol 😂 Good job my friend, plow on Kevin! 👌🏻👌🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I always look forward to these farming videos. They're so fun to watch and I love getting to see these old pieces of equipment come back to life :)
I've learned more about farming in the last 2 years than i have in the previous 55 years. Keep up with the content. Its EdUmActIoNaL.
Growing up on a farm even working on it at age 13/14 was awesome and your videos farming is awesome farming is the true life of America 🇺🇸 thanks for the videos of you doing it can't wait for harvest time 😀
If they are going to have a dedicated farm truck, when they already have multiple trucks already, shouldn't it have better traction? with either 4wd or a 200 engine and mudder type drive tires??? Dedicating a 2wd big block v8 truck with highway tires to exclusively farm use seems nonsensical to me. My dedicated farm truck, which I recently put back on the road after selling the farm, is a 1982 Dodge W150, 4wd with 225. and granny gear 4 speed. I recently removed the mudder tires for it's first Florida trip.
Sometimes I watch your videos and think, reminds me of hanging out with my brother. Brothers speak a certain way to each other. It’s like a language. It’s cool to see. Thanks for sharing with us, your way of life.
Good job guys. The farming content is great!
You two are so great together. Another awesome video.
I subbed to this channel because of the farming content. No doubt the best farming videos on RUclips, glad to see you bringing it back!
That 250 sx in the background is a hard to find beast these days especially the 86 with white tank and hard light shroud! Love it
You guys have way too much fun. Keep it up
Love Mook with the constant stick trash talk.
Great video as always And awesome neighbors @Junkyard Digs
I love it when you two work ❤ keep it up!😊
Need to paraphrase another top automotive oriented channel, that started joking they were "the best 4x4 channel on YT" after playing around with a 4x4.
This is now the "best farming channel on YT".
Seriously though, I really enjoy your channel, and this farming section just makes it even better. As a child in the late 80s and early 90s our family and friends used to have vintage tractors (amongst others we had a 1942 Farmall H and a 1938 McCormick W12) which we used to take to tractor shows, compete in ploughing competitions and other fun stuff here in sunny South Africa. We had a small plot of land, almost the same setup as you guys have, where my dad (a mechanic) used that Farmall H to plant about the same size crop. :) Also was just for fun. Also with old, abandoned equipment. Was such an awesome time.
Loving your channel! Keep up the good work!
So glad to see the farm series back again this year!!!
Cool to see Luke stopped by again and is running the tractor @Junkyard Digs @ThunderHead289
Love the sneak peeks in this video! Toyota camper in the background and the boat 440 next to the Satellite👀
Love the series, but Kevin, for the love of crops, please stop just dumping fuel/oil on the ground in your fields!! That's so unhealthy 🤢🤮
Yes!! Another farming with abandoned equipment! I love it!
Ya'll are flippin awesome. Great community to! Luke does look right at home on that strong 460 💪
I REALLY like these farm series. Especially that secret agent tractor--with a smoke screen and oil slick!
Kevin dropping the stick in the tank, or parts falling off, forgetting to turn fuel back on etc, etc, brings back many days I watched my dad wrench on outboard motors and other mechanical stuff. Quite realistic...
Did they say if you can get it running. Your welcome to use. Pretty easy. Start. But going to need to rebuild the carburetor, that did the trick. No telling how much trash was in the tank, another great success . Thanks Kevin and Mook. Love you guys . ❤️💯👍
I absolutely love that pickled truck!.the style paint sound everything about it!. when u droped that stick i went from complete shock 2 uncontrollable Laughter😂. 3:12 -4:08 just so funny. Yes 20:20 .
I love all the videos! Our Big Red 250 was a life saver on the farm! Get a small trailer built for that Honda and you're set for carrying all your tools/fuel/supplies and get another for pulling equipment. Plus, I'm not sure how Iowa ATV/ATC laws work, but a slow moving vehicle sign on a "farm use" trailer keeps you from getting pulled over in IN....or used to anyway lol
5:20 so mook is one of those 20-odd percent of humans who sneeze based on light... one of us one of us 🤣
I was hoping you were going to do the farming thing again the spring this brings back good memories of my years growing up on a farm working until you couldn't see any more ,A really enjoyable video
Wow, I really enjoyed that. We always watch for your car and truck stuff, but I really enjoyed watching you fix the tractor, prepare the ground, and then plant the beans. I've never seen that so up close. It was being there right with you. I'm originally from Connecticut and we had mostly dairy farms. My wife is from Wisconsin, so this stuff she knows well. For me it was great to see this little slice of farming.
Good variety indeed! The big kitty Mook was holding looked just like our ol Charlie!! Thanx yall!!
There is a screen in the fuel inlet on the carb too
Mook looks good in overalls, that was a good looking truck.Great neighbor for harvesting your beens for you.
Hell yes. Luke and you playing with old red tractors👌 like the old vids but better camerawork. Great job guys.
I'm so glad I got to learn fromy yalls channel. I've grown up around small engines with my father and loved it for years until I got my first little car, it wasn't carburatorated but it was something. Went from that to wanting my dream truck, a 1979 ford f150 4x4 with a 351 in it. Well low and behold my buddy I worm with has finally let me buy his 79 351 extended cab, long wheel and 4x4. This is my first carburatored truck and my dream to work on it to get it running since parked 6 years ago!
Watched the first farming season you had (searched: "Farming with old equipment" or something), since then I've been a subscriber. One of the best channels on RUclips!
I am having the best flashbacks to when I got the old 656 my grandpa got in trade running again after years of neglect and abuse. I will say that being a diesel, it didn't have the fuel and carb issues your 460 has! And it would have been absolute beast at the 1-point style of farming since both it's 3-point hitch and pto were completely worn out.But then there was the tragic hydraulic/transmission oil leak underneath the floorboard that I could never seem to keep patched. But oh my god would it pull anything you hooked to it! Sadly, I moved away and my grandpa scrapped it for something like $400. I guess you can't save them all no matter how much you wish you could.
I really enjoy the farmer videos, it is a lot of fun and so fitting to the agricultural history of your area! I bet the neighbors get a kick out of it too, also that cat is a real character.
I want to give a huge shoutout to you guys. You make some great videos, I like the balance of farming and classic car love, you remind me a bit of myself in real life. You do a great job of getting the point across that 1. farming doesn't have to suck or make you angry and 2. that you don't have to spend 10's of thousands of dollars to get high quality reliable and easy to fix cars or machinery.
Being "allergic to the sun" has a name, it's called Achoo Syndrome! Me and my brothers have it, we'll go outside, it'll be crazy bright out, and we'll all start sneezing. It's pretty funny to see, as the oldest sneezes first, then onwards from there, with lil bro sneezing last.
The beer chug after the stall... I can say all too well I know that exact feeling. Best series on RUclips!
Nice sound from that tractor. Looked like the blow by was a little less later when planting the beans. Just feed her the beans and she’ll come around 😂
The farm content is a cool change of pace. Last year I kept waiting for the next farm video. I love it.
Love this series, all about reviving abandoned equipment and actually use it
Popping the wheelies on the 3 wheeler was perfect lol
We love your videos however, my wife loves your Iowa hat. We need you at our sons acreage near Runnells to get his poor lawnmower running. 😮
I know the old 460 fought you a bit, but what a beautiful old beast!
Love these farming videos, just great seeing old machinery still getting used.
I was absolutely certain there was no way that ATC was going to move the planter, I was AMAZED. That little rig gets a lot done with 250cc.
