She's been a food plot planting food this year

Hello friends. So here's the issue. 3 point works well just is doing strange things. I know I have a leak inside somewhere because it won't stay up after I shut the tractor off. But here's the issue. The 3 point will go all the way up no issue but, for some reason, it won't go all the way down...

Well, she's coming along! She got her first coat of paint tonight. Much better than she looked before. I'll be working on the jerky hydraulics issue (prob. the hydraulic filter), installing new LED headlights and rear work lights and finishing painting the body this week and next. Then, ready...

So, my Massey is almost back in fighting shape. I'm running into an issue with the 3 point Hydraulics. While at idle, it raises, but shaky. Idle up, no issues raising or lowering. The other issue is that it won't hold the attachment up when the tractor is shut off, it automatically lowers it to...

1969 Massey 135. 3 cylinder Perkins Diesel. Getting her back into fighting shape before food plot planting season!

Hey gents. So I was working on the 135 today, no problems at all. She's running like a dream. I had to change the shift boots because I definitely have water in the hydraulic fluid, so need to eliminate any entrances. Anyways. After I changed the boots, it will shift into reverse or 1st and the...

So, went to look at the 135 that I've been looking for, for like 8 months. Finally found it. 1972, Perkins diesel with around 4000 hours on it. Looked pretty good. Needed a jump to start since battery was way passed dead but, ran without a hitch or hiccup for the 30 minutes I had it running and...

Hey guys! I have a John Deere 246/247 Two Row Corn Planter than I'm rehabbing for use this planting season. Other than some surface rust, it's in great shape. The fertilizer boxes have lol since rusted off and the whole assembly is gone. I'm pretty handy so I was wondering if anyone can give me...

Hey gents. We recently picked up a John Deere 246/247 two row planter. Looks to be in pretty good shape, all moving parts, minimal rust, etc. I'm new to the planting game. We'll be using it for a sweet corn garden plot, some food plot corn on the farm and possibly planting pumpkins as well...
