Hey you! Thanks for checking me out! Let me fill you in on who I am. I'm lots of things.
Dirt track racing fan--Late Models and Sprint cars both.
I'm also a tinkerer. As a kid, I destroyed toys--oh, how many remote control vehicles got disassembled!!--just to learn how they worked. Once I knew how something worked, I'd be able to figure out how to fix it. I've built and modified lots of stuff over the years.
Recently, I got into HAM radio. WW5AH is my call sign. I upgraded to extra class in December 2021.
Stick around and you might learn something! Or maybe your comment with teach me something?At the least, I hope you're entertained!
My dude!!! Thank you so much!!! 2008 Ford Taurus X, 3.5L v6 has the same power steering pump. I accidentally put the pulley on backwards and this video helped me get the pump disassembled from the backside so I could press the pulley off. THANK YOU SO FREAKING MUCH!!!!
I’m currently getting set up to narrow my 9” housing. I have a 5’ x 1.5” length of new chrome hydraulic rod. I’ve checked the runout in the rod at .004” t.i.r. which seems very straight for that length of material. I plan on turning my own pucks and I would like to know how close to fit them. Is .005” too tight a fit?
I would think that would be ok, but then again, I'm not enough machinist or engineer to make that call. And I suppose if you had trouble sliding them together you can always open the puck up a bit more.
2002 Ford Ikon has almost exactly the same pump. Your video helped me take it apart with no issues. The damn blades kept falling off though. I thought these pumps had some sort of gasket in the axle part that faces outside but didn't find any
@@ahuggins6 Could find and replace them no problem thanks to your detailed video. Thanks again for making it and taking the time to respond to my comment. And, if you happen to be a father, then Happy Father's day as well!
It's interesting you should ask now. We had a couple days of high winds a couple weeks ago. Somehow, even with all the guy wires, it ended up falling over. Guy wires still entact. Every piece is now scrap metal. I have no idea how it was able to move in order to bend over.
@@honeybadger6127 I would add another set of guy wires. But I have a friend who picked up a channel master pole at a ham fest last week and they've said they might sell that to me cheap. Otherwise, I'd put the 120 or more bux that would toward more conduit into a round h50 or a new channel master. But if someone has neither of those options available without expensive shipping, I'd do the conduit again and make sure it's guyed very stout. One of my guy poi ts was too close to the pole, so that might be the way it moved. I haven't thought too much on the math of it.
Thanks for posting this. I use to follow him all around the South East I-30, Riverside, Crowleys Ridge, Camden, Batesville and anywhere else i thought he would show up. He always made it interesting. Thanks again.
Hey man I noticed you were wearing a shirt with the Texas logo on it what part of Texas are you based in, I’m asking because I bent my rear differential on my 09 f150 fx4 the other day and I’ve been seeing people unbend them instead of buying a brand new differential. I want to see if I could unbend mine and not buy a new differential
I'm near Texarkana. An 09 is going to have a different axle than I'm working on here. Im pretty sure my equipment will not do the job. But I am sure you could buy the right stuff. But maybe for the same price you could buy another rear end from a junk yard.
Seems to me that the drive pulley has to be the same size as the other drive pulleys for each blade. If it takes 5 ms for 6” of the drive belt to go through 90 degrees of one pulley, it should do the same for all driving pulleys or you’ll have drag in the system. Am I wrong? That is, all the blade drive pulleys and the engine pulleys need the same angular velocity….
There’s a lot of difference in the size of the different joints. So there’s lots of slack. Unless you use a bent joint, it’s easy to slide them up and down. My H50 rohn pole however had a couple screws get tightened too much and so the joints are somewhat misshaped now, which makes it a little difficult sometimes.
Have no idea what size it is. Works great! In fact, the deck rotted out from under it. I’m going to be replace that deck with an International 3160 deck this winter.
i have a 184 nice tractor .But i have no power so i'm going to change all of the ignition parts and see how it runs . change the oil put some grease where its needed. good luck with your projects.
like the cut dont like the color of the cape,,the towel is good around his neck but I would have given him a shampoo as well,,, was the little girl next in the chair
That’s exactly why I put it up. I’ve read that these things can help grenade the cv axle shafts quicker, but I don’t intend to punish mine for simply being there. I think if a person intends to do hardcore stuff, maybe they should SAS their rig and build it right.
If anyone has ever had the tiniest piece of hot metal in their eyes they would'nt work without eye protection. If you loose one eye that is 50% of your vision gone. If you got in a car with someone and they said you only have 50% chance of arriving alive at the other end would you get in?
I don’t have any wiring between them. I have a awg10 from alternator to the hot side of the starter relay. The regulator on the starter goes away. Tape those wires up or remove them completely. The only wire you need to the starter is the batter cable from the relay.
Thanks! I watched my dad as a kid build a couple cobra keys for a 3208 caterpillar engine to mount different accessories. So I thought how hard can it be on a little ol cub?
Put the same motor in after blowing mine too, loved the first part about the pulley, mine fell off in my hands basically with the pulley tool. My mechanic brother in law said I was lucky as heck, guess he was right. Great video. Had to get help on the wiring though, good job figuring it out on your own....
I was raised by a very mechanically minded dad. He missed his calling to be a design engineer. So did I by being a home body that failed my first year of college and having to come home to a junior college and go back to a school with a full engineering program.
hope you get this ....did the engine motor mount holes line up???? replacing a 280h07 engine that blew up today....if they line up will get a new one like this
@@ahuggins6 hey thanks so much for the video and quick reply....bought my t60 in 2005 and engine blew today ......17 years of cutting and i worked the devil out of it......hope i can find one of the engines you replaced on yours
I have an older green version that had a 12.5 and the 17.5 bolted right in to, needed a little rewiring that I paid my brother in law to set up as he is actually a mechanic. But did all the tear down and motor reinstall my self, actually pretty fun.
My neighbors put a new engine in their Ranch King riding lawnmower. It is an Intek 500cc 17.5 model # 31R977-0027-G1 engine but they don't have the manual for it (lost it) 1) is that the same one as you are showing and 2) if Yes, would you know the basic parts numbers for it like Air filter, Oil filter, Fuel filter, and what type of oil it should take and how much? Briggs & Stratton does not have a phone number listed online for support and I emailed them last week and never got a reply. Great video! I'm happy it worked for you...any follow-up 2-years later??
Well, for an update, my mowers sit outside year round. So I’ve got water in the gas and the motor doesn’t run gretlat right now. But it’s good to have a dependable mower! I don’t have any thing on it. I would search for an owners manual for that model number.
@@ahuggins6 I tried to find an online owner's manual but B&S doesn't support their own engine. I have written them, tried to call them, and even the online search points to that model but then says an error has occurred and they just say, "too bad". Not the company they once were. I appreciate your reply.
This one should get you there. The short block is probably the exact same from one number to the next. The second and third codes are probably things like carb jet sizes or mufflers or combinations of those. www.thepowerportal.com/ipls/ipl.htm?md=31R9770028G1~_IPLURL_LO.pdf
For any ford power steering pump I’ve ever had make the typically Ford PS “whine,” Lucas Oil power steering conditioner has always made it a lot better. In fact, I had air trapped my F350’s steering system one time that would not bleed out. Hard to turn the wheels in a parking lot. The Lucas Oil conditioner had it fixed very quickly! There is no bearing in this pump that can go bad.
@@ahuggins6 thank you for response if there is no bearing why the sound coming maybe there is sleeve or pushing damage because it missing oil while starting what i can do to repairs the pump change seals cleaning the pressure hose difficult to remove in ford
I originally ordered it from d electrical.com but it looks like they don’t carry it anymore. I think this link will get you the same thing tho.

I want to do the same thing to my cub lowboy 154 it seems like it's always losing charge not charging the battery or just not enough power to run some accessories I want, so I want to put that in my 154 now my generator is also the starter so when I put that alternator on, I removed the voltage regulator and if so where do I hitched the field to and also where do you get that many generator and do I tell them that I need a bracket for it help me out buddy look forward to hearing from you
I built the bracket myself. This is totally a homemade deal. I can’t even remember the website i got the alternator from. And I think I was able to do away with the field wire because that alternator is what’s considered a true one wire alternator.
I cannot get the washer out....I've tried, believe me...that thing does not come out as you did it...the ring is super strong and firm in that groove...
Awesome thanks for the video. Gonna try tomorrow with two mapp gas torches, if it doesn't work gonna pick up an oxy setup on Monday, I've always wanted one but couldn't justify it
Hate ford power steering pumps, they're natorious for whining, and remanufactured pumps aren't much better unless you get lucky. I rebuilt one once cause I couldn't get a quite remain pump. It was quite the day I rebuilt it, never did wine until the day it locked up... at least it was quite the entire time. LOL.
@@ahuggins6 exactly what I'm gonna do with my truck, put some Lucas in it. It doesn't wine real bad, I've had much worse so that should do the trick. Ford never could make a good power steering pump.
