I've done a few cab changes, It can seem kind of overwhelming, but, it's not that bad. A little hint, go find one that's all together, take a few pictures for reference, and you'll save yourself some head scratching.

I look forward to your rebuild videos.

Great tractor , well worth restoration

Glad you fixing it. :).

glad to see your guna tackle this project will be a great tractor once again it takes more then fire to stop a john deere

hope we gets a lot of video of this project! Keep up the good work!

About 5 years ago had a 2955 fire. Fix was a Cab $4500,Hood $1000, Wiring harness $600,misc parts $2500 About 1/2 of tractor value. Still using it Today.

I drove a 4760 on a forage harvester for a couple days and thought it was one of the best tractors I've ever drove, if they brought that series back I don't think they would have a problem selling everyone they built. If you ever get a chance to drive one don't turn it down. Th

Know a farmer in the area that took 2 damaged 60 series and made a nice one. Pulls 8 row kmc strip till planter with 3 liquid tanks on the tractor each spring. Turned up hoss. Good project and it will pay off

never mind the haters, that tractor is a project worth tackling.

watched ur 4960 videos caught up .nice job

Awesome I have been looking forward to these videos and wondering if it was still around

cute and knows how to fix his own vehicles, what a man!! would LOVE to live on a farm I'm so sick of city life

Sweet another project!

Can't wait to see her run again good luck finding all your parts and pieces. Don't go broke on this one

Get her DONE :) Awesome project

Compared to having wheels, do those tracks tear up the ground more when trying to turn?

I'm really glad to see that you plan to resurrect this machine, as you say finding many of the parts second hand will definitely help to lessen the financial pain, but, how difficult do you expect that to be within your time constraints? Are there any personal safety issues for you from the results of the fire? I know the emergency services are very wary about burnt out cars for some reason - what I don't know!

Yea to many ass holes in this world Wes with nothing better to do than going around on U tube giving everyone the thumbs down .will be following the 4960 rebuild good you Cheers Glynn

I think up every video of your I watch

cant wait for the next video about the old girl. Is there any concern about any thing wrong internally due to the heat?

Lauren industries in Quebec makes some nice replacement cabs

Can't wait too see it finished

is there that much foam and plastic on those tractors to make them burn with such a intense heat ?

will be good to see, is the cj2a still around?

Wish you a good luck with the john deere 4960

I won't ever give you a thumbs down on any video you make,,I have enjoyed them immensely ,, of particular interest to me were the 4450 transmission series ,,and the 7810 power quad rebuild ,,I am learning a lot from watching you do it yourself ,,currently I am rebuilding a 445 Minneapolis Moline ,and I have done a 5020 Re-power ,,I replaced the original Deere engine with an 8V-92TT detroit diesel which came out of a large truck ,, a lot of guys use tractors modified like mine for tractor pulling ,,I don't I use mine for WORK ,,I got a jeep J-30 I use for pulling

Sure would be nice to find a parts machine have them sitting side by side swap what you need sell the rest. Like you said it should be a fairly easy repair looks like the cab was gutted and burned across the top of the engine. I guess until you start tearing into it then you will know what you got ahead of you.

I changed the cab on our 4840 used the load and a chain on my 4320 and set it in place not to bad of a job really

How long do you expect this project to take?

Wes where do you find the cabs I need one for my case 1394

LOL, I just have to sweep and I'll be all set. You need about a month to clean that crap hole up!!

wheres part 2 i have been waiting on this project ever sence the tractor burnt

Good old farmers workshop, full of "you never know when I will need this" stuff

The 60 series. Last of the best. It was all downhill from there.

Wes. Did you purchase that back from the insurance company or was it insured at all? Just curious.

Hey Wes, would you ever do this again if (god-forbid) it happens with another one of your tractors? And what is the hardest part of rebuilding a tractor in this condition?

@onelonleyfarmer

the hardest part is figuring out where everything goes

How did the tractor cetch fire anyway

Why did it catch fire?

What caused it to Brun

is that the tractor you pt the patch on the outside of the of the tire?

@45Deere9500

Yes, it is. The bad tire that he mentions in this video is the tire that he put the patch on. The patch is still on it though. It has a split on the inside sidewall.

If you decide to sell your ten tonne floor jack let me know!!!! I believe its a ten tonne.

Howd it catch fire? Is there a video on it?
