This last weekend I had just got the new clutch in the farmall M plus we got done puting the power steering in. I pulled it off the car trailer and I said to him (please keep this tractor in low gear and drive slow) we need to bleed the steering system pump but we need to first ride it around and steer the front wheel around in like U truns and left and right. then we can check the syetem and put more in if needed that is way you take it slow. What does this 86 year old man do (well he starts out in low then shifts in to third gear and throttles up the engine. The tractor rolled two times but threw him away from it as it landed on one side. My dad is sore and some little scraps you might say he is very lucky. The tractor is a 1951 farmall three wheel, model is a cotton picker, and you might say it does sit up there in hieght. I get to go back to parents this weekend and put this tractor back in to his shop to fix it up again. I might be looking for parts for this farmall M .
