2. That old chinese Deere won't know what to do with all those Murican freedom filters on it!

3. Don't see the point of wrenching the filter on. If it don't leak, it's good.

4. Enjoyed watching. I bought 5055E back in 2021; love the tractor. My first. This video very informative. Thanks for sharing.

5. There are 2 plugs underneath… one under the seat area and the other under the engine area. One is for engine oil drain (the one in the front)… what's the one under the tractor at the rear under the seat area?

6. Thank you for the video , it was a big help when I did my 500 hour service.

7. great job

8. I like this for inflating tires, digital gauge and an air release. better that playing with just an air hose and a tire gauge – a lot faster too.

   Uses 2 AA batteries last a very long time, i use energizer lithium as the work better in the cold.

9. Nice tractor! How much land do you maintain?

10. Funny how much force that filter install requires. Isn't it just hand-tight on pretty much all automotive applications?

11. Nice switch Eric O. for a video.

12. God job except for your horrible way of saying napa ect , speak properly and make it professional.!!!

13. Nice job very easy to follow

14. strange watching you work on something that isn't rusted all to heck and back!!

15. Hey look, I'm Madonna 🤣. On a different note, I had no idea that NAPA (not sponsored) also carries tractor parts. I wonder if their prices are better or worse than landpro

16. Nice of Harry Ferguson to come up with the 3 point hitch system all those years ago …….

17. Gotta use the ol' vice grip chain wrench and prybar on some of those filters especially the larger hydraulic filters.

18. Eric, Great video. Thanks for posting. I enjoyed coming along for the ride.

    Being a Kubota guy it was nice to see the maintence differences between the brands. 👍

    As for the stuck filters, they are painted on during the engine build making them a bear to get off. 😆

19. To add a few HPs search the internet for John Deere 5055E intercooler

20. Eric, you have got to be one of best mechanics out there. That hydraulic fluid sure looked pristine. Also it appears you over torqued the filter. But what do I know, I never worked on a tractor.

21. Even though you check that the trans is in gear, you’re trusting a little detent ball and spring with your life. Maybe this is a hydrostatic driven unit but either way just Step onto the tractor when you start the thing. My neighbor was killed by this when I was a little kid and I’ll never forget it.

22. I see the safety Sally's are coming out of the woodwork.

23. Excess grease does absorb the water and sucks it into the bearing/pin area
    Best to wipe off the old excess

24. Nice one Eric. Astonishing that for a piece of farm equipment the front axle drain is the only one where the fluid can drain directly into a bucket. Every other point inc the filters flows onto a chassis member or engine part!

25. As a tech at a local dealer, I enjoyed this video. I was curious though on the beet juice in the tires? We use anti freeze/water mix in our tires for weight. It makes them heavy and quite cumbersome to move around. Great video though! This what I do a lot at the shop. Retired LE officer to turning wrenches and fabricating at a tractor dealer!

26. Let's see more of this stuff dude

27. i have a 2013 5065e, my starter started doing the same thing yours did ~1 year after i bought it.

28. I had a JD riding mower. Never had any problems with it. But getting the mower deck off was a pain in the butt. The guy across the street had one too, but he bought a bigger one. Must be a mower competition thing.

29. Very interesting alternative video!

30. You never cease to amaze me with your practical knowledge. I will never do anything with a huge tractor but I watched every minute.

31. Nice machine. Watching this after seeing the starter replacement. I am learning a few things.

32. Always enjoy your videos! Have referred to them for "how to" a few times. You may want to take into consideration, when the loader arms are "fully extended, up" the cylinders are full. When the cylinders are lowered, the reservoir level will go up. Having been a farm boy most of my life, it was a pleasure to watch you work on an ag tractor.
    Thanks again for doing what you do.

33. Do you have a farm channel or another channel I have feeling you did might have watched before cant find it now tho

34. more of these videos

35. I learned more specifics on this tractor than watching farmer youtubers.

36. great video !! thanks !!

37. Thank you for the video. I have a 5075E with about 1300 hours. The Power Reverser keeps freezing up and won't go from Neutral to Forward or Reverse. When it does, I get a "Transmission Information Indicator" Any Thoughts?

38. Who sells a tractor with 60 hours on it? Man the salt must be bad in NY

39. the John Deere Police are going show up and give you a good talking too, you are not supposed to work on John Deere tractors. And the fact these new filters are green, you're in big trouble!

40. I enjoyed every second of your video. Great work man

41. Nice tractor! Lots of fun with that bad boy.
    Thanks for the video!

42. It's probably Beet Juice.

43. I liked your little pet toad, jumping by at 8:18
