John Deere 720 Diesel Deadweight Pulling

[billyalex159]

this just shows how good john deeres really and thats why i love them

[TheJackweed]

STUPID!

[MrMic1146]

all he needs is more rear tires.That tractor would pull anything

[GreenWaveWrestling]

You guys are pulling way too much. What's a full pull? 32 inches?

[jd2cyl]

@GreenWaveWrestling HAHAHAHA! awesome!

[JohnDeere30201]

need to have the chain hooked where it pulls up on the load and down on the tractor where it get better traction

[JohnDeere30201]

i dont know what i like better IH or Deere guess i like um both

[appievandeboate]

you should be an undertaker, easily digging like this

[AdamTh1]

ok...  which dries faster yellow or green paint?

[depsterboy]

wtf? dig a bigger hole why dont you. should have stopped @0:32

[72Benfica]

get a david brown in there and you will see

[international1256]

IH would have pulled that thing no problem get that green piece of shit out of the way or a wd 45

[79fordblake]

@international1256. I have a Wd45 and it is a great tractor with good power. But if you weighted it up the same as that 720D it would probably just about break it in half or it would rip the rear end out of it trying to pull. The ole 720D is much better suited to this application. How could a IH pull it? All of them stay in a shed and are never used.

[international1256]

@79fordblake really sit in a shed i think not and its not that impressive if u just dig to china with that put put

[79fordblake]

@international1256, completely agree. But..... to alot of people it is fun to watch. I have three A JDs, Allis Chalmer WD45 & B. Im only 20yrs old but I love this stuff. I could set and watch it all day. Not only do I have old tractors but my everyday driver is a 1979 F150. Not to mention the 79 Bronco and 73 F100 I have also.

[international1256]

@79fordblake sounds like u got some pretty cool toys im a dodge man myself but whatever floats ur boat

[19mg94]

AC all the way

[1936johndeerea]

the differntial must be having a bad time

[1944johndeerel]

it takes skill and a good set of brakes if you dont have a diff lock and 4 wheel drive im told.

[mfsuper90]

wow thats a soft track

[guri131]

i mean...whats the point of all this?

[DieselMechanic09]

what's the purpose of this! they just weren't made for that kind of abuse poor ol deere

[fouurnall]

man i lvoe the sound of them old john deeres!!! my neighboor had 8 he restored!! he has one that is a g with a pipe just like that..man that thing is music to my ears. go john deere!!!

[Tractorboy1211]

Cool Video I Pull in A stone Boat As well id like to hook my oliver 88 deseil up and see what it can do there

[IamStupidz]

Stupid driver..

[pard75]

Okay, funs over let's hook up an Allis!

[woodman1241]

just watched a case 1066, fell asleep. nothing pulls like a deere

[dieselrosske]

jeah it really puls we see

[kingkong1469]

and yours would make it 3 inches

[dieselrosske]

jeah sure my kirovet k700 crush that stupid deere

[JohnDeere30201]

@dieselrosske try it with a cat d9g bud see what happens

[fixitdude74]

@woodman1241 WRONG, the sayin is "Nothin run's like a Deere"

[JtsGreene]

Why? So as soon as the tractor begins to bog it just quits?

[pard75]

Heck No! Hook an Allis D-21. It'll be all throttle, besides that tired ol' Deere did'nt pull that weight anywhere before it dug it's self a hole.

[pkf129]

and watch the come apart

[dmeyer302]

So what's the purpose? I mean, how is this different from a "regular" tractor pull? How's it measured?

Don't think I don't like it! I'm just curious.

[tradingsouls]

First off...this wasn't a good pull. Tractor wasn't balanced properly and when you stone boat or "dead sled" with a stock or near stock two cylinder you should never slip the clutch. Breakdown: There is a set drawbar or "hitch" point on the tractor. You can hook below but never above. A full pull is 16feet. Typically, two to three rounds.  For example, 1st round sled weighs 8000,tractor weighs 8000. Next round,sled may way 10,000,tractor remains at 8000. Whoever pulls the farthest wins.

[RenzeZielman]

i didnt see the front wheels coming up slightly... Which means that when hooking the chain higher above the rear axle, you could have pulled more weight of the concrete, on the rear axle of the tractor.

[jstrunck]

Power to the Ground! JD power that is, and no other!

John

[Cosmo0203]

He just keeps sinking lol!

[dougstiro]

that went well!!!!

[vosnextdieselgen]

dont do that to a old johne deere good lord you spend all that money just to tear it up? and if you comment back saying it doesnt you are WRONG

[rmpruitt]

Well, IT DOESN'T!!! HA HA My cousin bought a new 720 diesel in 57 and started pulling it here at our local county fair that same year!!! That guy pulling in that video has been doing that for a lot of years with that tractor. You just make sure you keep the maintence up every year. They have a plow days in the fall where they plow all day with that tractor!!! It'll be alirght

[79fordblake]

@rmpruitt, I have to agree, it really doesn't seem to hurt them at all. Unlike years before, the aftermarket world for two-cylinder performance is starting to get huge now-a-days.

[MattytheDem]

@rmpruitt nothing runs like a Deere

[joejedlicka]

The wheels are slipping, therefore the strain on the drivetrain is not very much. You create ALOT more drivetrain stress when you're tilling and the front wheels come of the ground, as the drivetrain is pulling the front up.

[Polybun]

@vosnextdieselgen Oh fuck that. That's what it's there for, to tear up. Shit, they aren't special. 720's are a dime a dozen, may as well break it.  Break it fuckin' good too.

[Rhyno430]

@vosnextdieselgen Tractors are made to pull.

[dirtydan671]

o yea first person to watch and comment this vid wooooooo
