Almost 20 years ago my dad had something like that from the late 70's called a big A fertilizer spreader. It had a monster Cummins V8. Was hands down the coolest thing I've ever driven/operated. I remember it used to hop like that down the road if you went too fast.

I ran a BIG-A for the local Co-oP one season. It had a 360 Ford gas engine. The gas engines didn’t last long in them. I finished it off and it went away that year and completed the season with a SpraCoupe. I went from running a monster to a midget! The BA held 1200 gallons and the Coupe 300…

That thing moves a lot faster on the road than I thought it would

I remember the 3 wheel Terra Gators bouncing up and down the roads and in the fields when I was a kid. The only one I've seen used recently has been at our local dirt track. They water the track with it. Judging by the condition of the frame under that bed, I'll pull out one of my favorite sayings from back in the day...that's gonna be the ultimate piece of "farm boy fabrication"! I'm allowed to say that since I'm an old farm boy and I still do a lot of "fabrication" lol!

Love seeing these heavy-duty videos it's what i want to do after i complete my light vehicle trade. Love your videos Rich!

You guys do good work, we had a 1603 with 3208 and manual trans in Kentucky, on a farm I was on, we also had the dealership for these for our crop stores. Great old bus to drive, don't drive it on the road loaded with fert, apparently tires pop. Good project 👍

Super big toys, for really big boys.

Kevin,I like how that old gambrel roof dairy barn was converted to a clear span storage. I disassembled one and reassembled from the loft up. It was only a baby though compared to that one 30'x40'

"Neither of us has ever driven anything like this before", You didn't have a tricycle when you were little, in your time it was probably a big wheel

Keep this project coming this looks fun as hell.

Also you need to mount all the cameras on the boom and drive down the road doing rollers next to your rides perfect camera rig.

Excellent work and thanks for the awesome content

Hello from Portugal, nice video good job!!!

Followed one of these 3 wheeled monsters when I was making a delivery in Maryland. On a major highway too!

DT 466 the old bag and add a chrome straight pipe, got one on an IH 2+2 good motors.

Great music on the drive home!

We've got a few of these old 3 wheelers for spreading lime. They all have CAT 3208s. Putting a crankshaft in one next week! They all bounce like crazy if they're unloaded.

Mostly gone around the US. But they were easy to tip! Nice machine to see in field.

Seeing that sprayer brings back some memories.

We used to have a fleet of 2505 five wheelers to knife sludge. They were like driving a dinosaur. I started in floaters spreading and spraying, and ended up in the biosolids field, where the machine has to move high volumes fast.

A clark loader still running wow never seen that before

Looking forward to more episodes on this thing!

These things are pretty popular around my area in Michigan. They go rolling through town mostly in the spring time and early summer

it'll be cool seeing content on these considering the fact that ive run both Ro-Gators and Terra-Gators doing ag lime and dry fertilized with both spinners and with an Air flow. that and ive done all kinds of work on them. Keep making good content on things nobody else has the balls to do Rich!

Good ol Tavi' lots of trips there in the winter to play puck..

Great video rich @DGHD

Nice terra gator any videos of the conversion. I would love to see

Omg a monstrous Big Wheel that is so Cool Rich 😎 🤣 @DGHD

OMG that ending :). can we get some Marlene merch?

That's a steampunk trike if I've ever seen it, rolling down the road with flame throwers disco ball and a mad sound system !

Oh fuck yes!!! I've seen these things or similiar rolling down the road always wanted to know more as they are so cool looking.

Love it bud!

How did I miss this? Been subbed to DGHD since the start.... either way a nice find :)

Dam an 85. That thing was well taken care of. Very nice score

These are pretty cool. I hate fertilizer equipment because they’re always covered in rust. Before getting too comfortable with it I’d check the condition of the steering cylinders. They can break and you’ll be pulling it out of the ditch lol. Great find though👍🏻

13:26 was a perfectly cut scene almost like in a movie, driving this gigantic thing

Nice! Only like 600 of these units made. Ik of one, 5 wheel setup, dry fert and lime, has an 18 or 13 speed eaton, same 900 cummapart, which did indeed, come apart a COUPLE times. Fuel is up all the way on it and lopes a bit. Still doesn't have much torque or power though. I have never operated it.

You got to find a crazy vehicle like that and make the ultimate off-road prepper camper because the world is getting a little crazier every day

Man that has a lot of get up and go for a vehicle like that! Although it was doing a pretty good hop and skip routine there lol

Another unusual machine and a kitty at the end! What more can you ask for?

The hooligan in me can't help thinking how much *fun* you could have with that beast.😁

Just a heads up in case you guys didn't know, depending on the mixture of solid fert, some run fairly moist and can clog. Gotta do a head rinse with a pressure washer

Damn! Now i want that wheelloader🤣

Big trike. That's awesome. Strip it down and crank that pump up

At the local co-op in my town there is 2 of these terra gators and a John Deere sprayer that go through town occasionally

Loving it!!!

What are the advantages of having a dedicated machine for this instead of a tank behind a tractor? Love the channel, keep up the good work Rich.

@daveR0berts

4 жыл бұрын

The advantage in buying an old machine like this that its comparatively cheaper than putting hours on a new machine or possibly needing a whole new tractor during busy times but not needing a tractor when its quiet, its also a huge benefit having a dedicated machine with a higher capacity.. I would guess that thing with all the work done to it will still come in cheaper than buying a new fert spinner with less payload.

Go spinner box instead of air boom for reliability and more ability (Ag lime and sustanite) just as accurate if set up right

@@billnlori3149 I'm an owner operator truck driver as well as an old farm kid. I've never owned, or even driven anything with Cat power but, I remember dad and his buddies arguing about the 8v Detroit being better than the 3208 Cat and vice versa. Dad had a GMC General with the 8v92ta Detroit (it's in my shop being restored now) and his friends also had either screamin Jimmys or V-8 Cats. When the 2 stroke Detroit went away, he switched to the 3406 Cat, later the C15 and didn't look back. Except for 1 tractor, I've always run Cummins power. That 1 tractor had a 12.7L 60 series Detroit, which I thought would be an upgrade from my M11 Celect +. The Cummins was only a 370 horse engine while the Detroit was a 500. The torque ratings were the same though and, so was everything else about those 2 tractors (except for the model year). Both were both were Freightliner FLD12064s, Super 10 transmissions and 3.73 rears. With an identical load, that little Cummins would out pull the bigger Detroit until 6th gear (aka 3 hi in the Super 10). After that, we were rolling and the horsepower took over. I didn't keep the Detroit powered tractor any longer than I had to but, I still have the old Cummins powered 'Shaker. It's a backup to the other 4 (all Cummins powered) that I own and my drivers and I all love taking the old girl out to "lube her up" once in a while! I've heard rumors that Cat might be getting back into the on highway market with an engine that will pass emissions without a dpf system. If true, it'll be a game changer and I'll be the FIRST in line to order one!

Not sure if the 466 is going to be enough horse to pull thing around! Not sure about the Cummins engine but the 3208 Cats were wicked up to around 400 horsepower on the ones with big turbos and jacketed aftercooling attached to the engine that I worked on back in the day. Might want to see if you can find at least a 530, especially if you want to run that air box. I seem to remember that the blower unit sucked up a LOT of horsepower when in operation. Nice find though guys and I look forwards to seeing the end result!

Came for the cat. Surprise kitten instead. Thumbs-up.

I'm amazed that 555 runs, from the way people badmouth 555s and 903s you'd think they would be completely extinct engines.

That thing is as old as I am and in better shape! Lol!

i was a drive for the speader teragator had a fuller trans and cummins

Did anyone notice what looks like the front end of one of these in the 6 cylinder Detroit video where they got the generator running, looks like the front wheel on yellow forks sitting next to the genny.

Ah yes, the 3 wheelers, in case it isnt evident enough, this have 0 suspension, wheels that should be at 40 psi, and they bounce everywhere, and the old triple nickel, the one we have is N/A, and just today it smoked out the seed barn enough to make my eyes water Edit: thank you for emphasizing how bad those bastards bounce, only good part about is you're doing about 40, so you get where you're going, just gotta survive the trip

We got some of those, some new some old, but ours are 5 wheel

That looks like the steering column out of my 86 camaro berlinetta 😂😂😂😂😂

Make sure and use old style (93 and older ) dt466! Best diesel ever built!!!

We've got 3 terragators years 1988, 2003, 2016 and the hop is the biggest thing we hate. Really starts to feel uncomfortable to drive at high speeds. When loaded it isnt as bad but still prevalent.

what are you talking about? Farmers always get the proper transport permits. We used to use a big extendable pole to get loads of hay on trucks and trailers under power lines hahaha.

wow you guys made a giant mouse trap ha ha ha ha ha keep safe guys

This was the hot ticket in the year I was born.

Definitely gonna subscribe to your channel

That 555 almost had me fooled

Why not using the stainless steel tank for the solid fertilizer as well? You just need a progressive cavity pump and probably remove some splash-preventers from the tank

We got one like it with a litter body on it

Why is the front tire reverse of what is normal for ag tires, is that for a reason or did someone mess up

Thats a big tricycle

Rich! Everything wrong with AGCO Power engines, especially the 7 cyl diesel put in new Terragators

I have buddy that did the opposite to a Rogator. Converted a granular spreader to a spreader.. Guess it was a nightmare!

Terragators are awesome. They're pretty easy to find in Arkansas. The toys are expensive as hell

13:51 Rosa Flora

That’s actually a great old terra gator. Our backup 1603 is a similar unit with 555 and 10spd. Unfortunately for you the auto trans sucks up a lot of hp.

Cummins 555 and 903, good engines back in their day, just not by todays standards 👍👍
