JOHN DEERE DISASTER

   / JOHN DEERE DISASTER #13  
In the first video I see where there is a boot that covers up the front u joint to protect it. I noticed it was all torn up. I wonder what the story is on that?

I didn't watch videos because I can't be bothered with you-tube opinions....but if he has had several engine issues and as some have said here....they see other stuff tore up on the tractor......maybe the tractor isn't the problem, LOL
Going out on a limb here.....but could be a problem with the seat cover. LOL

Never ceases to amaze me the people that will abuse a piece of equipment and then gripe when it breaks. I've broken plenty of stuff over the years using it well beyond design limits trying to get the job done. I knew exactly where the fault lay though and didn't blame the machine lol.

There's a guy on the TYM fbook group that goes constantly, full tilt with max+ weight in the loader who moans constantly that the gears keep puking in the front axle. All I can think is he's the kinda fella that uses his screwdrivers as pry bars and ratchets as hammers....

I've done all of the above but never faulted my equipment for my impatience. I'm my own mechanic so I get to deal with my screwups and sometimes even learn from them. :rolleyes:

I can't say I've never pryed with a screwdriver myself lol. I try not to though

Even used a screwdriver as an ersatz chisel or punch, sometimes whacking it with a ratchet. Mostly I come to me senses and get the right tool. Just too temping when you have to make a mile round trip to the barn/shop from the back 40. Even worse when you are trying to get you current motorized vehicle to limp back to the shop to fix it. Now if I have to walk back I get the big tractor to tote it home.

I watched that video of getting the John Deere 9560 on the trailer. Very interesting

  1. When you're in the middle of a mess, all you can do is do what you have to do until it's done
  2. All of the players regardless of age were very capable, and didn't need much direction
  3. Slow and steady wins the race
  4. Contrast this with any video of people at a boat ramp trying to launch a boat
