LOL, Our last tractor with such a shared system was 50 years old when we ditched it a couple years ago. Very unsafe by the time we gave it up. No roll bar, brakes, steering, lifts and trans. But the engine was still chugging.
Hope you get the experience. Nothing is slower or funnier to watch than combines at war.
Grandpas and their machines. Good times…have some similar type memories myself. Thanks for sharing!
Ha! Yours loved his machines, too? Glad this piece tapped into some of your memories of simpler/younger times.
This goes along with riding on the back of the flatbed truck and drinking from random garden hoses.
Plus some tractors used the same hydraulic system for brakes, steering and the scoop. 😎
But the pinnacle is combine demolition derby.
Does it add to the risk that this tractor may have shared the same hydraulic system? I can only hope so!
I misread combine demo derby as "combined"; I've got to see one of these one days!
