Thanks for sharing. I'm about to to the same to my 2010 2500. I am curious if the same bushings or alternative will remove play at the joint on the lower shaft by the steering box? I asked EMF and will let everyone know if interested. Mine has play at both ends and 4 corner EMF ball joints. I'm tempted to do bushings on upper and then replace lower shaft/joint if needed. I imagine beer can shims might make an improvement too? :)
So shoud weld only on top?It happens on me that I weld on both sides using 6013 on 65-70amp and top cracks again.Or I make something wrong that this cracks appear?
Heck yea bud this is great mine does the same thing but mines on the drivers seat n it’s uncomfortabale all the way back …thks mine is an 06..if I have any at her issues I’ll tx you bk n maybe you can help me..thks
I've had this reel set for a couple years. They have not held up well at all. They are perhaps the worst investment I've ever made with regards to tools, in fact.
Thanks for posting the video. I am installing new injectors in my 03 Cummins, tomorrow, your video gave me more cofidence . I have 236,000 miles on it now, very hard start unless very warm weather, I hope this will be the fix, thanks again
I needed to get a trailer aid for my horse trailer. We had a pole building built and my farm boy brain said.; I bet we can make one out of one of the pieces of 6 x 6 posts left over from the build. So i took a 3 foot piece got out the chainsaw and freehand cut one out with tapers on both ends. Took another piece of 6x 6 and made an in between axle wheel chock. They have worked great and they only cost me the gas to run my saw. So far as you not being able to get you axles high enough, could you stick a piece of 2x6 under one end of the trailer aid to get more lift?
Thanks for your time in creating this vid. How would you weld a crack in grey cast iron Goulds water pump down in the base of the bowl, the bend of the bowl or the seam but not. I only have a flux core welder with E71T-GS - 0.030 Inch Blue Demond wire. But, after I use a grinding wheel to make a trench I was thinking of using a nickel rod along with the pass. I would heat it up first after its all grinded and cleaned and I have a trench and holes drilled at each end. I will put it in a sand bath for 24 hours after I am all done. But, it's not more than an 1/8" deep cast iron. The crack goes all the way through. Hair line 98% of crack to about a two to 3 hairs crack 2% of crack. LOL. 1. Can I grind it out all the way through with a hole at each end of crack. I have been told not to go through the iron. But, there are no parts or anything on the other side that I have to be careful and not weld onto? 2. With using the flux and rod can I just go at a speed until the pool fills up all in one pass? The crack is about half the size of the pumps diameter. 4-5 inches. 3. Can I go the speed that would fill the trench then stop halfway or, (?, Distance of stop and go) Stitch it and come back before it cools all the way down to finish. 4. I can only get to the outside of the cover. Its about 10 " in diameter. I only have one sht. Please help don't judge because I am women. I have to get this done. Can't afford to be ripped off by someone else when I know I can do it We have no water. 3kids, and farm animals that need water.
No offense or how ever you look at it, your welds look like shit on your personal rig. Is that how you work? More specifically your 90 elbows. Just my opinion and the way I work. Your rig represents you.
That looks great buddy! Nice finish. I haven't arc welded since high school, but i need to weld a lawnmower deck for a riding mower I'm fixing for my nephew. It hassome of the same cracking at stress points. Thanks for the video buddy!
That looks like its going to be real nice when its done. but dam that 2x2" is about 135 dollars per 20ft piece, and you need about 9000 feet lol. well 1/8" thick 2x2 is about 135 per 20 ft. right here in texas where I'm at.
@@westleyrudd5500 I live in Conroe, TX. but yeah don't get me wrong I really like the idea of using square tube for a fence. I actually thought of using square tube for a gate because in my opinion making miter cuts is easier than coping pipe, lol. that's why I was checking out your video.
Hmmm. Good question. I need to add some extra bracing and welds. Especially around the headache rack. Might have gone with a little thicker steel for the deck so it wouldnt bow. Little small odds and ends. Not too much i dont like about it to be honest. Its easy to modify them too cause you just weld what you want on. Ive added a few features that way. Definitely plan on different machines and such when you do it. Think ahead.
I have to give you props man. Simple short sweet. Fixed the issue in less then 10 minutes and a few other issues with the drivers side seat. If you could give some of the others advice on recording like this.
